You're probably looking at an early Oct delivery to ensure an '09. When I did ED, the build date for my car was nearly a month prior to my pickup date (I picked-up in late May and my car was an April build).

Also, when I worked for BMW (in Munich), the plant did a 2 week shut-down to prep for MY changeover in mid August. New production started when the plant reopened in late August. that was back in '92, so I don't know if they still do the full shut down, or just do running changes (we did some running changes for pre-production when I was there...)
