I am the port with u guys too been there since sept 2nd. Its very frustrating

JLight · 09-16-2008, 12:59 PM

If we don't head out today, perhaps we will head out on the 19th?

imported_newguy · 09-16-2008, 05:00 PM

Got word from my CA today--should be receiving car at the dealership NLT Oct. 7th. Ordered the 135i August 10th. Not bad, I guess. These last weeks are killing me!

IReilley · 09-16-2008, 05:59 PM

drewnyc135, my production completion date was 9/8 and I'm also headed for east coast delivery. please let me know if you pick up a shipping date.

drewnyc135 · 09-16-2008, 11:21 PM

my guess is we'll hear at the same time...by the end of the week for sure. my car has now been sitting there for a week.

soupy · 09-17-2008, 07:29 PM

very surprised these other cars made it and yours didn't. I'm still hoping I get to the dock for tomorrow's ship, but realistically the best I can hope for is the ship on the 25th.

JLight · 09-18-2008, 02:11 PM

Keep me posted Morgie2!

FunkyTown128 · 09-18-2008, 03:06 PM

Congrats!! I am so jealous.

IReilley · 09-18-2008, 03:53 PM

Ok, my production finished on 9/8 and I've been at the port since 9/11. That's a week. Drewnyc135, did the 800 number tell you that you're on the boat now, or did you find out some other way?

JLight · 09-18-2008, 03:55 PM

IReilley,

I think our 1er's are built and shipped to the port on the exact same day. I too have been sitting since the 11th! I think another ship heads out to the USA tomorrow, lets hope we are on it!

drewnyc135 · 09-18-2008, 05:24 PM

actually it was the website that showed me on the boat.

yousef · 09-18-2008, 08:42 PM

Finally en route. Sep.2nd build.

Steelerbimmer · 09-19-2008, 09:40 AM

I just called my dealership and was told my 135i Coupe left Bremerhaven on the Ship named Don Quijote on Sept. 16th.

Should arrive in GA on Oct. 1st. and to Tampa by Oct. 6th and ready for delivery to me on Oct. 8th.

Orginally ordered Aug. 6th and completed Sept. 4th.

About 9 weeks to the day from order to delivery.

Hopefully.
