I checked the cargo status today and it now says: Delivered from: Port Hueneme,CA, 7/7/2008 08:00. So does that mean the cars went to the VPC at 8am today? I am one of the Priority 1 on the list. But i know i won't get mine until maybe this Sat.

I was hoping to be getting mine at the very end of this week as I am Priority 1 too. But does VPC do its work during the weekend? :wink: If so I could be getting it any day now!

It looks like they do work Saturdays only for "Priority 1". Check out this link: http://www.bmwblog.com/2006/12/22/did-you-ever-wonder-what-happens-at-the-port-to-your-car-after-it%E2%80%99s-shipped-from-the-factory/

I know that it left the Port of San Diego Sunday evening and probably was sitting at the dock all night til this morning for unloading. I was under the impression that the vehicles are color coded in order and white vehicles are loaded last in Germany and therefore, logically should be unloaded first here....

VPC works during the weekends but seeing how our vessel probably arrived late last night, I doubt any vehicles were unloaded.

I am also pretty sure that all 135i are PRIORITY ONE so, we are all priorities…

I am hoping to get mine this weekend seeing how the vehicle is less than 2 hours away from me in San Diego. Hopefully we all can get our vehicles this weekend but I won’t be surprise if it was pushed back one week.

I was on Asian Chorus, which my dealer told me unloaded mid-day on last Thursday. Anyways, I suppose I shouldn't get my hopes up for an early delivery...

backtoreality15 you might get your car before me since Stevens Creek is closer on Hwy 101 or 5. I'm getting mine up at Weatherford. Maybe we might just get it the same time. :w00t:

So "the phone call" could be coming anytime now for us. I get my hopes up every time I feel a vibration in my pocket. :biggrin:

I just want to say, its been a wonderful (and sometimes painful) journey with all you Week 23ers.

Please forgive my NEWBness but where is Bimmerfest held?

I will try to make it if it is in Cali which I am guessing it is.

I agree that this has been a tough journey. I have plans on picking my 1er up on the 19th. I have to travel about 3 hours to the dealership to get it so it has to be on the weekend for me. Although I would be surpirsed if I don't call in sick when it comes in next week:wink:

Everyone post pics of your ride when you get it here in this thread. Lets make this the best support thread of all. I think it is the longest of them all so far:w00t:
