It certainly makes sense that 3ers destined for .au would be built in SA in terms of shipping cost.

I have noticed that the SA facility generates significantly more production delay than the German facilities, at least for the 335 orders from the states that tend to end up there. Perhaps there's just a longer queue, but if your vehicle has not yet started production it doesn't matter where it's built; it's going to be a 2014.
I think I do have production numbers, this is what the dealer said:

"The system says it will arrive in October, the chassis number is 9799713."

Not sure how I can use these numbers...does the 713 at the end mean july 13?
