I agree with that 100%, I would rather not receive the call from my CA that my car is stuck at the VPC awaiting repairs.

She docked in Baltimore about two hours ago.

On to Brunswick GA next.

Guess she unloaded at two separate ports in the Baltimore MD area, going back down through the Chesapeake now and should be in Brunswick at some point tomorrow I would imagine...

The wait is close to becoming a reality!

Not on the soil yet mine is coming to Texas so it gets unloaded at the Brunswick VPC, I am thinking it arrives there sometime late tonight or early tomorrow before 12pm...

Oh, for some reason I thought yours was being unloaded in Baltimore. Mine is also being unloaded in Brunswick. Lets hope for speedy VPC processing. When my 08 e92 was offloaded it only took 5 days to the dealer. I would be surprised with that luck this time though as I am having black grills installed at port. I figure I will get the car anytime between 12th and the 21st.

I bought my 2009 335i off the lot so this is my first time waiting, I would do it again in a heart beat it is worth it (not to mention it seems like the f30 335i is scarce I have yet to see any in Dallas and have yet to see an M-Sport period, a few no lines and a few sports, no luxuries either)

I am having black grilles and M performance exhaust installed at the VPC. I am hoping to have mine by the 25th.

BTW - this boat is MOVING, 18.2 knots through the Chesapeake Bay...

I believe you will make it before Christmas as long as the world does not end on the 21st. Joking.

Guess she is in the middle of the Atlantic again as she has disappeared off the map and was off the coast of the outer banks around 8am this morning. I would think sometime late tonight/early tomorrow she will pull into Brunswick.

What's first, Brunswick or Charleston? My car is being unloaded in Charleston, supposedly (it'll go through the PCD VPC).

^^^ I have heard it goes Brunswick and then Charleston, or that is what the K-Line website says.

Digital, did you happen to see when our ship left port today?
I was too busy at work to look. It is back out of range so I guess it unloaded and left already.

^^^ Man I was about to ask you the same thing, it was out of range around the outer banks last night and hasn't shown back up all day.

I checked hourly at my office and it never showed. I wonder if Brunswick is out of range, bc if you look on the map that is the only port that never seems to show any ships.

I saw it briefly off the South Carolina coast and the Marine traffic sight had its expected arrival at Brunswick port at 5am earlier this morning. It is now nowhere to be found. I assume it has already docked,unloaded, and left but there is no way to be sure that I can find. It is not yet listed as a port of Charleston expected arrival yet on Marine Traffic. The k line website still lists it docking in Brunswick on the 7th and Charleston on the 9th but I think this is old information as I believe it already docked this morning in Brunswick due to Marine traffic expecting it to dock at 5am this last morning. It is a little frustrating. Hopefully we did not sink, LOL

My CA told me yesterday that once it entered the VPC we would get a estimated delivery time accurate to within a couple of days. He is supposed to e mail me once this happens but we all know how reliable they can be sometimes. I will be too busy at work tommorow to call so I guess I will have to call Saturday if he does not e mail me. Let me know if you find anything out as I will let you know if I get any news. I am fairly sure we are already on American soil now.

I will let you know when I hear something my CA is on top of things and responds/communicates with me. I would assume Brunswick just doesn't show up bc I have seen no boats there all week. I think we are on US soil as well now.

Patience patience patience it's almost here!

It is really wierd that our ship is not showing up at all on Marine traffic for quite some time. It does not even show up as expected to hit the Charleston port it that is on its schedule. I assume this is just a glitch but my imagination does tend to get carried away sometimes. I hope the have not had mechanical issues and have had to port somewhere else. I believe it is highly unlikely. Oh well, got to go to work now and wont be home until 8pm. If anyone hears that our ship definately docked and unloaded please let me know. thanks

Just received an email a couple minutes ago that the boat docked early this AM and our cars are on US soil now. He is talking with the VPC now to add a few performance parts and is going to give me an ETA soon...

Nice! I would imagine Charleston would be next, this afternoon? Now I have to cool my heels knowing that my car will be waiting for me, but I won't be able to pick it up for a month!
