Wow, look at all those links... Somebody has their "Google Alerts" set up properly. For very small production number cars (Ford GT) their ought to be some sort of exemption from the "right hand drive/left hand drive" thing.
While a one off CSL 3.0 concept is always welcome, BMW could do so much better. Take the i8, remove the batteries and electric motors, insert M3/M4 engine and call it an M1. If Audi can sell the R8 then there has to be room for an M1.
