I've only been watching this forum for a couple of months, but it seems to me as if a lot more cars than usual have been delivered in the last few days. ARE things speeding up or am I imagining it?

Production and Sales

I've only been watching this forum for a couple of months, but it seems to me as if a lot more cars than usual have been delivered in the last few days. ARE things speeding up or am I imagining it?

Production and sales the last four month (beside of the one week plant shut down for model change in June) are nearly constant. You can see it in the prod & sales graphs here:

The main problem is they can't sell more cars then they are able to produce
