I came across an interesting site where you can look up any make/model of car and find out how many are still registered:

https://carsafe.com.au/risk-rating#

The E90 M3 model isn't there due to low numbers, but the E92 M3 is listed in most states:
SUMMARY for 2017/18:
ACT: Not listed, <100 registrations
NSW: Thefts 0, Registrations 394
NT: Not listed, < 100 registrations
QLD: Thefts 1, Registrations 195
SA: Not listed, < 100 registrations
TAS: Not listed, < 100 registrations
WIC: Thefts 1, Registrations 385
WA: Thefts 1, Registrations 138
Total for Australia: Thefts 3, Registrations 1247.

In comparison, there are still 1363 vehicles of the E46 M3 model registered, and;
F80 M3: 5 thefts, Registrations 1248 vehicles.
F82 M4: 5 thefts, Registrations 1374 vehicles.
F22 M2: 2 thefts, Registrations 1808 vehicles.
F20 M1: 2 thefts, Registrations 1312 vehicles.

Cheers,
What’s an F20 M1?
Hi,
In the statistics it is listed as 'M1 MY12+'.
When I 'bing' that I only get from Wikipedia that F20 should be called M135i, and from year 2016 M140i.

Cheers,
Ah yep m135i. Cheers
That’s really interesting. A total of 1,440 E92 M3s were made for Australia and New Zealand, with 1,389 of them for Australia.

So that’s not too bad a fall off rate by 2019.
