In short, there are significant differences (at least in my case) in when the latest information becomes available through these channels, with the CA having the latest information first through BMW's internal systems. Why it takes so long to get from one BMW system to another is beyond me - thankfully BMW's cars are faster than their information systems...
OC is about 3-4 days behind during the whole process. I guess it is geared toward "normal" people who buy cars to drive to work, etc, and not for us M3 freaks!
