If not a typo I'm guessing the original launch models but even that seems illogical as anyone in the manufacturing world knows that inventory sitting in a warehouse with no chance of sale for 11 months is a no go from an inventory turnover ratio perspective. Who's watching the hen house? Or is the CFO off his rocker?
I suppose there might be some pre-production M8s built in 2018 that weren't scrapped? So nothing a consumer might actually be driving around, but still something the recall should cover.
