BMW M4 GTS production ended with 803 units, over the 700 projected
BMW’s baddest and fastest sports car today has ended its production cycle. Despite its initial projection of just 700 units worldwide, the M4 GTS managed to squeeze on the production line quite a few more units. Back in April this year, BMW announced it will manufacture no more than 700 units of the high-performance M4 GTS, described the model as “a special edition limited to 700 units to celebrate the 30th anniversary of the BMW M3.”
But the final number is 803 units for the globe, still a very rare and limited car, which will likely hold its value on the used car market. May even become a collectors item. BMW’s initial plan called for 300 units to the United States, 80 to Germany, 50 to Canada, 15 to China, and 30 to the United Kingdom and Japan. It’s unclear what the final distribution was.
What’s clear though is that the last M4 GTS is headed for the United States, was produced on November 28 and is painted in Black Sapphire.
The M4 GTS is also one of BMW’s fastest and most track-ready cars. With 493 hp, a 0-60 mph time of 3.7 seconds, water-injection and manually adjustable shocks, the M4 GTS is ready to munch almost anything that comes to the track. The M4 GTS was priced at $133,205 in the US.

That's strange, if they did limit purely for marketing reasons then why not going on with the initial limit, if it's for production capacity reasons then why did they finally stop making it after managing to unlock additional factory time.
Because about six weeks ago, BMW launched the M4 DTM Champion Edition, which is just a GTS with a different name. It's a way of milking more money from the GTS without pissing off GTS owners, although I think GTS owners are too busy filling up their engines with a hose pipe to notice.

Just watched TGT do a review of the M4GTS and it was terrible Jeremy liked nothing about it all and it was 2s slower than the 911 GT3 RS. No publications seems to like it at all. I love BMW, but for me it's a total failure! I don't think there's an M car that has got more negative reception than it.They might have sold all of them , but not because they are that good just limited.

M4 GTS - M4 CS
This is not the M4 CS you are looking for...Move Along...

It's questionable if it's worth that much. M4 enthusiasts who are serious about performance simply buy an M4 and do suspension, brake and other upgrades before even breaking in the car.They are asking 250.000$ for this car - the prices are going through the roof

It is not about being "worth" that much - this is a rare car that in 10 or 20 years will be much more valuable than an aftermarket upgraded M4.
Just like the M3CSL is something special even today
People buy these because they want the special edition M4, and also doesn't hurt that probably it will just gain in value

The other issue is that after market upgrades tend of have little resale value on a car. In some cases they even devalue a car.
I have seen a few low milage M3 CSL that have held their value very well.

BMW M GmbH, formerly known as BMW Motorsport GmbH, is a subsidiary of
BMW AG that manufactures high-performance luxury cars. BMW M ("M" for "motorsport")
was initially created to facilitate BMW's racing program, which was very successful
in the 1960s and 1970s. As time passed, BMW M began to supplement BMW's vehicle
portfolio with specially modified higher trim models, for which they are now most
known by the general public. These M-badged cars traditionally include modified engines,
transmissions, suspensions, interior trims, aerodynamics, and exterior modifications
to set them apart from their counterparts. All M models are tested and tuned at BMW's
private facility at the Nürburgring racing circuit in Germany.
