What was your build date?! Starting to get excited....

Mine was built on the 6/2 (expected 6/3), it was a day sooner than expected.

BTW, on BMW's "track my BMW", my car shows waiting/enroute, and the last phone message said I was waiting for a ship.

However, my CA emailed me this morning as he got an update email from BMW. My 135i is expected to be in SC port by 6/24.
He thinks it will be just a few days from then to get my car.
So, if all goes well I should have it sometime the the week of 6/29-7/3, good thing they are open on Saturday.

Looks like I'll be taking my vacation soon after that.

Heh. I've got an estimated delivery time in SC from 6/21-6/25, and my build date was 5/26. It's interesting to see the various areas of slowdown with production and shipping. It's also enough to drive me crazy.

Either way, though, I hope your have your car by the end of that week. I'm keeping my fingers crossed!

D.I.P. · 06-12-2009, 02:11 PM

Just got the call from my CA, car left Bremerhaven yesterday 6-11 ETA in Jersey city port: 6/25. wooooohooooo

Hmmm...I wonder if just happened to get on the same ship as you because you had to wait longer for a ship?

Also, this may have something to do with where in the US the majority of the car shipments will eventually end up?
My car is coming to the Chicago area/NW Indiana.
I don't know that SC is any closer than a NJ port, so maybe I'm wrong.

adk749 · 06-12-2009, 03:18 PM

Just got the call... I am on the Faust as well. Arriving NY on 6/25! Holy cow I am excited.

Excitmnt94 · 06-12-2009, 03:35 PM

FAUST BABY!

adk749 · 06-12-2009, 03:51 PM

Here is the Faust Schedule and a picture of it at the port in Gothenburg, Sweden. Next stop - Zeebrugge, Belgium.

Evice · 06-13-2009, 09:22 PM

Anyone picked up their cars that was on K-line vessel OREGON HIGHWAY ? This vessel was supposed to drop the cars on Wednesday at South C.

Just wondering.

BKScripto · 06-14-2009, 01:29 PM

Just called the 800#, my car is on a boat now. I'm going to email my CA tomorrow to see what boat I am on. I'm guessing it's the Faust, like the rest of you.

Jimmydean · 06-14-2009, 06:07 PM

have any of you guys found your car on the boat using the website and your VIN ???

The 800 # says I'm "in transit" so I'm obviously on a boat, but wondered if you guys had any success finding it on the boat online.

I don't want to harass my CA again (I did last week), and in the end it isn't a big deal, but if I can find it myself I would be happy.

JimD · 06-14-2009, 08:31 PM

I went to the website with the 7 characters I have of my VIN but did not get anywhere. The sticky says you need the entire VIN.

I got the "in transit" message this morning on the 800 number. My CA may have left me a message but I am traveling so I didn't get it if he left one. I sent him an email - which he typically answers promptly so I should know what boat to what port tomorrow.

Regardless of what boat, it should be in the U. S. this month so PCD by mid-July is looking definitely possible. Maybe even early July (depending some on the PC schedule but I am flexible and within easy driving distance so that should help).

I already have my PCD scheduled. It's going to be on July 27th. That's the earliest they told me I could get. I ordered my car on June 1st and it was built on June 11th. But right now I have no idea where it is. I doubt it's already on a boat. I'll have to ask the dealership.

otterdoc · 06-15-2009, 12:10 AM

Anyone on the Triton Highway might find this of interest:
http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&sour...8&z=11&iwloc=A

Location as of Sunday 6/14.

Use this to track the boat from there:

JimD · 06-15-2009, 09:08 AM

There is a Performance Center Delivery (PCD) forum at Bimmerfest. One of the guys from the PC is a regular poster. He says he will not schedule a delivery until the car clears customs in the U. S. That seems to conflict with a scheduled delivery for a car not yet on a ship even. My CA says I am "on the list" but has not given me a date. Maybe your CA is projecting a date for you. Something doesn't seem to add up.

I got an email last week from PerformanceCenterDelivery@bmwna.com confirming my PCD date.

supraking · 06-15-2009, 11:56 AM

Just spoke to my CA, car is off the train and will likely make its way to the dealership this or next week. Fingers crossed!

I have my whole VIN, but it didn't work yet. Of course, there are like 4 places you could enter info, so maybe I'm just not doing it right.

(thats what she said)
