2013 SOP (start of production)

RPM90 · 05-21-2012, 12:08 AM

I was looking at the 2013 Ordering Guide and noticed that there was an "SOP" date. I believe that means "start of production".

If so, 2013 335i's will start production in Germany on 7/12.
335i's will start S. African production on 8/12.

This also goes for the 328i.

I'm hoping that those of use who are ordering 2013's early will get the 7/12 production start.

A buddy of mine ordered a 2013 5 Series. Allocation is for July production. So I believe you are correct.
