Is this documented somewhere?

Normally changeover occurred in late August with the new models starting in September.

Additionally, (normally) the lead plants were the home plants in the SE Michigan area (ie, Pontiac or Flint) with the satellite plants launching after some of the initial problems were ironed out.

Since I have it handy I am posting the chart below which shows a few start/stop times for Pontiac nameplated vehicles.
