When will my car be here? European delivery

Hi All,

Trying to get an idea of how long will it take for my car to be here. I am picking it up in Munich on 7-17 and droping it off in Geneva on 7-29. How long is the wait from that point.The wait is painfull already. I am outsde of Philadelphia.

Thanks

Just to be safe plan on 2 months. I could be much earlier than that but I have seen some reports of people dropping off at locations other than Munich or Bremerhaven taking a while to get to port, once it gets to port you might have a couple of week wait until it gets on a ship. But if everything goes just right you might have it in a month from when you drop it off.

Thanks. I hope it will not be longer than a month. My current car has to go back from lease at the end of August.

It will be at least a month if not longer. You're on the east coast though, which will shorten the redelivery time. Those of us on the west coast have to wait much longer. As mentioned, it also depends on where you drop your car off and the shipping schedules. I dropped my car off in London on 5/16, and it sat on the docks in Southampton until 6/5. It finally got to Port Hueneme, CA on 6/27. It will be another week or two for it to go through customs, VPC, and transported to my dealer.
