Nice, it's movin' right along!

I think to know how (or if) the existing orders will be markedly impacted, we need to know what the current planned volume of inbound vehicles per mo is, the frequency of the shipments, and whether they have a contingency plan to increase the production volume in these type of scenarios.

The OP mentioned a setback of 70 vehicles that had to be "reproduced." I'd be interested in knowing what percentage of the month's planned shipments this loss represented. Does anyone know how many ships are typically utilized by BMW to supply the U.S. in a given month? Follow up: Typically, how many M3's per?

Xcell: Hopefully it's a minor setback...
