The crazy thing is that we are incredibly spoiled with unheard of discounts on such a newly released car. BMW just messed up the launch that left so many dealers with expensive and slow moving inventory.
I remember getting our newly released E63s ED.1 in late 2017. Felt like a crazy good deal to get some discount while that car wasn't available in all parts of the country.
That said, apart from different regional supply/demand differences I don't see the discounts on the remaining 2020 M8's going away or dropping dramatically. Customers will not differentiate between a late 19 and early 20 build or if one is HEI or not. It's a 2020 and eventually will sit in the same showroom with 21 models.

Yeah I wasnt quoting you to disagree as you know. I just dont think with the lack of production that discounts will go as far a complete and total loss including flagship which some have seen. There of course, will be great discounts to your point. The key will be getting the 2019 production on the door jam because the flagship is greater.
I remember when I got my Ed1 E63S--- I think was one of the first to get it released from the ports with the certification snafus; I only got a smaller discount compared to my normal triple net. My factory guy even said- "dont ask cause you wont get it and I saved you an extra car" I guess first kid on the block pays all the juice
