I have absolutely no new information, my CA is being a little frustrating. According to owners circle, I am still at the port, but you never know. That POS is almost never up to date.

ecap18 · 06-13-2008, 04:02 PM

The only info i have on the Asian Chorus is that it left the UK Yesterday and is on its way to NYC.

Simon_135i · 06-13-2008, 04:03 PM

Well, maybe the CA are just waiting like we are... I emailed my CA a couple of days ago requesting an update and NO EMAIL has been returned... I wonder if this a typical CA response...

I bought an e92 335 last year through this same CA and he was not so responsive. He gave me a good deal on the 135 so Im not gonna complain, but my impatience is still getting the best of me.

I guess that ANSWERS my questions. I assume we should expect this since we are not buying the car at MSRP pricing. I agree, my impatience is still probably getting the best of me too. But is it too much to expect when all we are requesting for is a tid bit of information every two weeks??????

in 3 months that is 6 emails... thats all i need.....

It's all good!

I emailed my CA today and he told me that my car is now on a ship and has an eta to hit the US shores on 7/7 and the dealership on 7/15.

I then emailed back and asked what ship I was on and he has not responded yet so maybe he just told me this to keep me off his back:iono:

I hope I made that ship! Wouldnt mind having the car before 7/15

ScottyGams · 06-13-2008, 11:38 PM

i don't know why i even care that my car gets to the states on June 19th... when I don't get to touch it until July 30th!

promise me that you all will post pictures of your cars that we have supported each other in the wait for... it will keep me strong!

itsthechuck · 06-14-2008, 08:55 AM

I guess I got a good CA, he responds to my emails in about 5 minutes everytime. Hopefully the Asian Chorus is on schedual, I wouldn't mind getting it late this week/early next.

stevenc · 06-14-2008, 11:47 AM

i cancelled my week 23 order with the dealership because they were jerking me around on price. I ended up placing an order with their competition and the competition got me an allocation thats about to go into production, so im only 2 weeks behind...

I just spoke to my CA's boss at the dealership and my car is on the "Princess VII" scheduled to dock at Oxnard 7/7/08.

Hope this helps... there are 1,000,000,000 ways to track these boats. If you dont know how, go over and look at the ordering forum on www.e90post.com

Simon_135i · 06-14-2008, 01:08 PM

Just checked... my car in "EN ROUTE" Looks like I'm on the Princess VII too then... just have to check...

EINSER M · 06-15-2008, 02:43 PM

Yea thats the schedule, ive tried to track the Asian Chorus on so many sites, cant find any info.

I-One-Da? · 06-16-2008, 01:51 PM

My CA emailed me and told me that I am on the Princess VII. The ship should arrive at the port in SD on 7/7 and it should be at the dealer by 7/15.

Does anyone have any info on the status of the Princess VII? I am having a hard time finding out where it is at the moment. There are too many sites to figure out

I believe she is in the open sea and really not trackable until she gets closer to land - If you go to this link: http://www.boydsteamship.com/daily_traffic_report.htm

You will see she is scheduled to transit the Panama Canal on June 25th.
You can also look at http://sdmis.org or the Oxnard Harbor district websites and get updates for her there as well.

Hope this helps,

J

Wow!

I did not think she was in open waters already. I guess that makes sense though since she left Bremerhaven on the 7th.

Thanks for the info:thumbup:

Simon_135i · 06-17-2008, 03:34 PM

just got an email and my vehicle arrives at Oxnard on July 7 and will take another week til it gets to the dealership

What is the Penfed rate currently?

I got a 4.5% at my CU. Is it much better then that?

And yeah, 7/7 to Oxnard is what I have too.

I thought they would port at San Diego... Penfed is at 4.25, but i haven't applied yet. I am almost certain that my credit rating is among the best so I should be able to get the 4.25 for 72 months with penfed. I doubt BMW would give me that...

BMWFS doesn't like doing loans for longer than 60 months. I'm not sure if this is what you're planning to do, but I figured I'd throw that in there.

I got a 4.09 % rate in April and that was for 60 months.
