They celebrated number 20.000 recently, so the final number will be just above that. Not sure about the split between C and R.

My pure guess would be between 3000-4000 roadsters have been built.

I have been told that there are app 500 roadsters registration in Germany and that include all press and promotion cars owned by BMW. I think Germany must be the second biggest marked after US and find I hard to believe that there are almost 6 times the number in the US!?

Received an 'official' statement of BMW about production numbers. Unfortunately still estimates.
2/3 of LCI cars worldwide are roadster.
Could not find a total production number of total pre-LCI cars but according to "my stats" the number should be close to 13.000
Meaning ...
Roughly 5000 roadsters and 2500 LCI coupes are out there.

Other numbers:
Protonic Yellow: 100 pcs.
Protonic Red: 400 pcs.

Not That Many in Australia

Only 155 in Australia according to this article

Hoping this will make prices stickier, but we'll see.

Total production = 20.465
Roadster = 3.884
Coupe = 16.581
According to BMW approx. 2/3 of LCI cars are roadster meaning
pre LCI = approx. 14.639
LCI coupe = approx. 1.942

So, LCI coupe is rarest but very curious to see to which level roadster value will drop.

Apparently 119 LCI coupes in the UK (source - someone on facebook is writing a book and said she got figures from BMW UK - she could be wrong). Rarest perhaps as such but not actually too different from a pre LCI.
