I spoke with the ED department this morning, and she said that an ED car usually takes *6* business days in customs. Eeeek!

Ok my CA got back to me.
His info is more delayed that mine but jives with the BMWUSA.com site and 800#... he still sees the car as in-transit and if it was already at the VDC, it would've registered there and he'd have an ETA.

So he thinks if there's no delay getting off the boat on the 19th, I should have my car by friday, but if the site was up to date and his info is correct...then I'm looking at mid to late next week for re-delivery.

Ugh, there better be status soon, or I'm going to need some sort of sedative.

Well Pheller and I's owner's circles both updated last night to "at the VDC" yet Euro Del is now telling us that our cars are released to trucking carriers and we should see the cars by the end of the week!

CA just called to let me know that I should not trust owner's circle updates (which just yesterday said "at prep center", after it had sat 6 days in Customs).

The reason he gave for not trusting it is that the car showed up at the dealer this morning, exactly 30 days after handing it over to Harms in Munich.

Take re-delivery tomorrow. Can't wait :-)

If my car has already made it from NJ to NH, then I suspect yours is also at your dealer, AchtungE30 :-)

CA called back - the car isn't there yet but they are expecting a truck today around 4pm. He's 99.9% sure my car is on it, but even if so, delivery would have to be tomorrow! ARGH!

Well, I have to say, you look very stylish with your new car. I am very jealous. I spoke with my CA today and my car is not expected until the 3rd of November, so I have a long few days to go.

Any day now...I only called my CA because Pheller's car showed up in NH.
Maybe it will show up there tomorrow?

The last 48 hours before re-delivery was horror for me.

Probably the last Tombarra post

Well, I have it at last!

Picked up my car originally at the Welt Center in Munich on 8-27, dropped the car off in Munich on 9-27.

And now, at last, I picked up the car at the dealership on 11-4.

Life is good
