As was already quoted in this thread:
Quote:
This growth was spread equally between the High-Performance sports cars and Performance cars made by BMW M GmbH, with both product categories raising their sales figures to a new level.
(where "Performance Cars" == M Performance "Series" cars and "High-Performance sports cars" == True M Cars[tm])

So unless M GmbH is lying the "true M Cars[tm]" also sold better than the year before (maybe not a big deal due to the 2020 Covid19 dent).

Also, I believe this is a global press release (I got it via BMW Germany) and does not cover the US market in particular, so anecdotal evidence about low allocation numbers for US dealers is less relevant.
