That would be a safe assumption. There is likely one port of entry on the east coast and one for the west. It is time consuming and expensive to go in and out of port.

I'm in Colorado, anyone have an idea what port it would come through?

So thats what happened. Well hurray for P1 status! BTW, Nice1 thank you for starting this thread. My normally supportive family is getting a bit tired of my addiction. :wink:

Just check on OC and now my VIN is showing up. Woohoo!!! Anyone else have a V for the 11th digit? It's not even listed in the chart in the other thread.

Same here! Looks like we will be on the same train and perhaps same boat Red135.

Bringinthewolf · 04-03-2008, 01:21 PM

Sorry you guys but I'll have to be leaving the support group as I am on the Fedora heading for Halifax.
Thanx for the support.

how much lag time was it for you to know that you were on a boat? i understand most people find out only after a few days?

Red135 · 04-03-2008, 02:48 PM

Crazy question: Does any one know the route the West Coast ships take once they reach the Atlantic? I am just curious because taking the canal is most logical, but that is a lot of money per passage.

Nice1 · 04-03-2008, 02:55 PM

yes the boats go through the panama.

I showed up on the WW site today and the ship sailed yesterday. I'd been checking the site about 10 times a day looking for my VIN to show up.
It showed me as booked on March 31, received April 1 and loaded April 2nd which is very quick. From what I've seen from other posts there has been a 10 to 12 day period from booked to loaded.

will · 04-03-2008, 06:11 PM

I think all this waiting suck. I ordered my car on 1 Mar and was told that production will start 19 May. If the car is ordered make it. I have made 2 order changes just because I have so much time.

What is the web side you use to check status by VIN, Owner Circle?

We don't have Owners Circle in Canada

It is the Wallenius Wilhelmsen site but that won't help you as you are a US West Coast delivery. Sorry
