Summer factory shutdowns

FYI- my Dealer advised me any orders approaching the Summer are problematic given Germans usually take 4-6 weeks of Holidays, which affects production- does anyone have info otherwise?

Just the other day I was told by 3 different dealerships that if you order now, you're looking at a late june delivery. Made no mention of anything further.

Factories generally shut down in August for holiday and conversion to next model year. Vehicles that are being picked up in August are manufactured in July.
