Something looks odd there, unless I'm not reading the dates correctly. It was received in Halifax on 29/01 and then loaded on a vessel on 31/01. Are they sending it back to Bremerhaven?

TitoSkulls, see when the vessel left Bremerhaven. When I check on WW's site, mine looks weird like that too. (like it's being shipped from NY to Germany):

LOADED ON VESSEL - NEW YORK, NY - 30/01/2008 00:00
RECEIVED AT TERMINAL - NEW YORK, NY - 28/01/2008 00:00
BOOKED - NEW YORK, NY - 20/01/2008 00:00


What you need to do is to log back in and click on the "Voyage" number EA805-BOH. You'll see the current voyage in black text, the last voyage in red text. The stuff you are seeing pertains to the last voyage, I believe.

Still not bad news .... I'll be among the first to get their 1 series. Rest assured I'll be quick to post pics and a decent review.

Good luck with that. Have you seen Sedona Red in person yet? I have seen it and I really like it.

I'm taking a bit of a gamble with the Sedona red. I haven't seen it in person yet, but from most of the pictures I've seen, I quite like it. My first choice would have been Le Mans blue, but I would have needed to wait till July to take delivery. Fortunatly, my deposit is refundable if I really decide I can't live with Sedona Red .... I doubt that'll happen though.

I doubt it too. Don't listen to all the haters here, it is a good colour and does look good on the car in person. I have seen 2 of them in person, in different indoor lighting conditions and I really like the look. I believe the Red comes out more in the sunlight. One thing for sure is that you will not be confused with just another white/black/silver BMW
