I'm balancing that out by getting an extra month of driving my new car I guess.

The ship itself was a bit faster than the average ship that sails between the US and Germany but not by too much. You can see the whole journey here: http://www.f30post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=654757 (it even has some webcam pics from when it went through the Panama Canal lol). And, well, I honestly thought the VPC took a bit long in my case (although I do realize now that it's not as long as some others are waiting but those long waits could be because of damages that occurred during shipping). Others, who were on the same ship, took delivery of their car even before mine left the VPC.

BMW 328Xi 2013
Ordered my Car on July 21,2012
Got production order number from my CA on August 7, 2012. Production Completed and is waiting to be released to the carrier- Aug 31,2012. En Route to US: Sep 16, 2012 ETA - Baltimore, MD Sep 28, 2012. Status on September 25, 2012 ETA @ Baltimore, MD is September 28,2012. I am skeptical it will reach on time with the speed it is cruising and Almost there... (Sep 27, 2012) and finally it reached on time...

In a brief review of this thread there seems to be a big swing in time from arrival in destination port to pick up at dealer. Between 5 and 20 days with no clear average. Weird...

So I've been perusing this site since July doing research on what issues the BMW vets discuss about their 3ers. I finally took delivery today on my 335 xDrive/sport/mineral gray/coral red interior/tech/drivers asst...
Finally got to drive the car on my own and I LOOOVE IT. Car is so smooth and I can tell once the break in period is over it will tear up the road. I haven't been this passionate about driving since '99 (highschool, drove Acura Integra) but the joy is finally back. Coming from a hand me down 2000 Acura TL. Heres my timeline and I hope everyone is as happy as I am with their new F30s...happy holidays and see you on the roads! • TIMELINE • 10/29/12 - negotiated deal 10/30/12 - order placed by CA 10/31/12 - received production # 11/8/12 - production begins 11/15/12 - production ends; released to carrier, awaiting transfer to port of exit 11/19/12 - received VIN # from bmwusa 11/21/12 - being transported to port of exit 11/23/12 - at port waiting for a shipping vessel 11/27/12 - loaded onto shipping vessel COURAGE 12/11/12 - COURAGE arrives at Baltimore, MD port 12/17/12 - car arrives at dealership 12/22/12 - car delivered |
