I've heard of this happening before ... the ship should still land 24 hours before or after the scheduled port of call date/time though. Just because it gets to that area 7 days early, doesn't mean it will dock that early. Not how it works, unfortunately.

Makes sense.

Just got picked up and on the Valiant Ace.

Unfortunately there's now a whole bunch of stopes on the way..8 or 9 then to Brunswick GA on the 16th-Sep, what's odd is its supposed to be PCD which should be a different port.

The wait continues.

Valiant Ace schedule

AWESOME work!!!

At the dealership!! Delivery tomorrow...finally

jasnh · 08-19-2013, 07:57 AM

CA called me this morning and says my car isn't at the dealership yet...but BMWUSA tracking says it is...WTF...I'm getting frustrated!

It even lists as being in stock/inventory on the dealers' website

Has anyone from Genuine Ace taken delivery on the east coast yet?

jetbill · 09-05-2013, 04:07 PM

Anyone on the Valiant Ace? It's on it's way.

trey100 · 09-05-2013, 04:58 PM

Is anyone a week 35 build who is still waiting for their car to go into production? I ask as I am a week 36 (which is this week) but hasn't gone into production yet.

Chieflpc · 09-05-2013, 06:06 PM

My car was on the genuine ace I think it's sitting in Charleston supposedly it will be PC on the 11th I head down for driving school on the 14th Hoping its going to work out for PCD

I finally got my car mid-July, ordered at the end of March. Have fun waiting for your cars, it's a long wait

I ordered mine in May; June 5 production date and finally picked up 8/29. Yes it is a looooooong wait for sure.

Bumping this up because I just worked out a deal with my CA on a build asked about production origin and was doing research on the subject.
Per my CA currently a German build is the only way to get a manual transmission 3 series so I am guaranteed a German build without significant wait time. Not sure if this applies to 4 series.
