It probably is too late for contingencies other than maybe ECU tuning. Things like bore, stroke, even cams and exhaust probably have to be final by now if cars are going to be rolling off the line in September. Tooling needs to be finalized, not only by BMW but by each supplier of any component not made internally. This takes time and probably requires that everything be "frozen" by now.
