Checking Build Dates

Hello out there, but a long time lurker but recently getting back to a BMW again. Super excited.

I am in the process of finding a used 535i, and coming across a few of them that are I believe build dates for 2011 models in 2010. I know there were a few issues in the early adobters and was wondering how would I go about finding the build date. Is the best way to get the VIN number and calling the dealer?

Should I be worried about any of the 2011 versions, and be safe stick to a 2012. I know not much as changed, but want to ensure it. This will be a car I would be keeping for a while so want to make sure I get one with all the kinks worked out (if any).

Thanks
