Dealerships from West Coast get 90% of 2013 335i built in SA. Technically I was able to get a German built 335i, but the wait time would be much longer than SA built. CA couldn't even sure about the starting date. I am gald that I did not choose a German built. Otherwise, I would spent more than 4 months wait for it.

No, there is no such sticker says your car is built at SA, unless you put one on it.lol It only can tell by the VIN# and price sticker I guess.

I'm sure the wait will be worth it. I got an email back from MOL today....
"Your car has been shipped on the Dignity Ace from Durban and will be transhipped onto the Swan Ace V.45a in Bremerhaven on the 22nd of March 2013. Currently the ETA into Port Hueneme is 16th April 2013."

So I'll probably ending up getting it in the beginning of May (b/c of the port installs and more transportation to Denver)....sick

On your window sticker though (the one on your car when you see it on the lot etc), did it say final assembly point of SA or Germany?

You will have it by end of April. My car was unloaded at port on 12/21/12, and it arrives at dealership at 12/26/13(1 Chrismas day off). It doesn't take that many days at the prepare center unless your car has any damages need to be fixed during the shipment(knock on the wood~~), otherwise, you shuold have it in 7 days after it get unloaded at the port.

I don't really remember what it excatly says on the price sticker, but it does say SA built.
