Website worked!!! Punched in my VIN and it popped up. New York ETA appears to be 2/25/16 at which it has to make its way up to Boston. Have to call my CA to get a more definitive timeframe but for now this page has been bookmarked and I'll be checking everyday :P

i'm on the tugela as well, but my dealer estimated car will be on the lot by march 10th/11th

Also on Tugela, we'll see how quickly it goes through the Baltimore VPC to my dealer.

Ordered mine on first week December for January build.

Heard nothing - no paperworks no vin. Though, I did order my through fleet (work) so not too sure what I should be getting?

Suggestions? I emailed the salesman about production number so I can track it, but he's on PTO...

If he didn't give you a production number, he sold you air.

If you still don't have one, threaten you will go to another dealer if he doesn't provide it immediately.

My 340i started production on Feb 8, on boat Feb 17...expected to be Halifax, NS on Feb 29, then about another 4 weeks on transport to dealer.

Ditto! That seems odd. I got a Production number and Vehicle Inquiry Report and eventually a VIN after about a week. Monkeyboxers Did you put down a deposit?

[Monkeyboxers]

So I called my sales man and he gave me the 7 March for the car to arrive to the port, ETA 21 March pickup! Though, he didn't give me the product number and VIN, but he told me over the phone the detailed scheduled so I'm happy with that.

bortnedrick I didn't put down a deposit, as I've purchased the car through work (fleet). So basically I pay off the car with my pre-tax salary on a monthly basis, which is good

Looks like our cars have been dropped off in Baltimore over the weekend, so close now!

Yessir! Hopefully no issues through VPC and cars get released to ground transport quickly.

I think it's just inconsistent with statuses. Besides, Tugela departed the port so you'd think (hope) it was offloaded haha.

My CA actually e-mailed me a bit ago, it looks like the truck carrier has my car with a delivery ETA of 2/26. I was hoping for earlier given my proximity to Baltimore, but ah well.

It looks like you're scheduled for Port Hueneme for March 6. If you click on the hyperlink for the voyage number CD605-TUG, then click timelines you'll see the remaining port schedules.
