not sure the customs date is accurate. there was a car on Titania with the same date/time of customs release as mine and his car was at the dealer the next day, so clearly it was already on a truck.

Some good news. My car has been release for transit. The automated system did say it was already in transit but when I spoke to customer rep they said it was still at VPC so I am guessing it is waiting on transportation at this point. Estimated delivery at dealer is tomorrow (highly unlikely). It would be nice if I can get my car by Saturday because I cannot endure another weekend without a car.
if you get your car Saturday, as I am scheduled to, then you have caught up to a car that got to Baltimore on 6/6. Congrats and lucky you!

which dealer? I'm at Fields

I just emptied my car in anticipation.

I am at Patrick. BTW my current car has been empty since the boat reached land on the 10th. lol I've even cleaned it and detailed it. Ready to get rid of it. I can't say lucky since I waited an extra 30 days since they didn't have an allocation.
It's possible both cars will be on the same truck.

They don't give you guys a carrier tracking # for the truck (from VPC to your dealer)?

Well, my car isn't on a truck yet. I will call later tonight to see if it gets on one. I hear the dealer gets that information I am not sure that customer reps can see? I just don't bother with my dealer.

OK I gotcha, I already see a carrier (Precision Motor Transport) but obviously no tracking/shipment ref # yet.


Man I'm wigging out. Got all these parts in my garage and nothing to put them on!

I am so envy about your guys! My car finished production and arrived at port on May 22nd. And it's been sitting there since! I called BMW a few times but they just said there's no further information other than what I already knew. I wonder if there's a way to figure out what my car is doing at the port for a whole month! Any suggestions?

Btw it's a South Africa built 2014 335i xDrive and heading to Baltimore. I'm still not clear whether it's at the port of SA or Germany (BMW reps gave both answers...)

I was lurking around the dealer yesterday (ok, and once the day before) but couldn't find my car.
I got out by the detailing area, but only sedans. As I'm going back to my car, a guy drives up in a 435 'vert--and it's mine.
he even let me sit in it, so he must've believed it was mine.

teaser pics




really close to the curb when he pulled in, luckily no scrape; don't know what I would have done. I asked him to back it up.

Living in NY, are you planning on ordering the wheel insurance with those 19s? I live in Ca and couldn't imagine having rubbber band tires wrapped around 19s and not having some sort of insurance.
