Well that’s a different story. Your initial post said parts were “scarce to unobtainable” which surprised me because that didn’t seem to be the case from what I witnessed.

There’s a new part number for the clutch: 21217526590

And the fact that my buddy said one reason he bought it was because BMW had “guaranteed parts availability for 50 years post production” was a sharp contrast to what you had posted. So I wanted to verify if that was accurate. It’s even stated in the Wikipedia for the car:
