According to its own website, June 20th is when the ship will arrive at Port Hueneme.

Sweet! Thanks for the post Wikidpete.

Looks like it's unloading in SD and not Heuneme.

hansenc · 06-18-2008, 02:32 PM

I talked to the new car mgr today and he called the shipping company for me. The shipping company has the vehicle and it still has an ETA of the 20th

. He said it sometimes can run early or late. I'm hoping it will be here Thursday so I can take delivery Thursday or Friday.

tharpa · 06-18-2008, 03:25 PM

Congrats man! I'm planning for a Friday or Saturday delivery at this point. It all depends if it gets to the dealership Thursday or not.

Pics will come soon!

I'm picking up my car tommorrow also.....

It was going to be ready today, but the tint I worked out as part of the deal has to set

tharpa · 06-19-2008, 01:05 PM

two hours to delivery... any suggestions on how to pass the time?

rocketpop · 06-19-2008, 01:12 PM

LOL, I guess I was one of the 1st to arrive at the dealer but will be last to pick it up. I'm look at next Wednesday.

ecap18 · 06-19-2008, 01:38 PM

what was the time line for you guys from being dropped off at the port to ready to be picked up at the dealer?

tcallquest · 06-19-2008, 02:13 PM

I don't believe it, but my wait will be over tomorrow. My car went from being at the production center to at MY BMW center, in a matter of 24 hours. Now, I'm sure this was just a computer glitch, but the car arrives today, and if all goes as planned I pick it up tomorrow. Let's just pray that I can work out a "reasonable" price on my trade. Here's to the wait being almost over.

hansenc · 06-19-2008, 04:14 PM

tharpa · 06-19-2008, 10:22 PM

I only have a day or two left! I have a good chance of getting my vehicle tomorrow but it might be saturday depending on when the truck gets to the dealership.

drand · 06-19-2008, 11:58 PM

Maersk Welkin is now at Long Beach. Hopefully we will be offloaded tomorrow.

hansenc · 06-20-2008, 10:45 AM

akak1997 · 06-21-2008, 08:27 AM

hmm... this is weird, I just call the 1-800 number to check and see if the status has changed to arrived at VPC... but it said it's awaiting for a vessel! WTF!?? It would suck big time if I've waited all this time and the car is DOA and I've to wait 7-8 weeks again.
Does anyone get that before?
I hope it's just a glitch in their system..
