I'm going to need to go back the last week of this month to officially place the order. That will guarantee a post-PW45 build.

I'm shooting for a Munich build, but I could tell from his system those were tough to get, at this point.
Munich builds are tougher to find. In checking around it sure seems BMW is trying to move US 335i production to Rosslyn. I have no problem with Rosslyn production, however transit time is the killer. It can take 35-50 days. Often the cars go from SA to Germany, then get offloaded and reloaded. Lots of time sitting at the SA and German ports.

Keep this in mind if your plan is to take advantage of whatever holiday deals NA is likely to throw out there. They usually expire just after New Years. Some years they have accepted late offers on in transit cars, but I've been told there have been other promotions where they don't.
