My status on WWL changed to 'Delivered From' on 03/18 so hoping for a sooner delivery although I have port installed accessories which may delay it.

Yes, my assumption may be right because it arrived at the dealership on Friday, March, 20th (7 days since "DELIVERED FROM" status).

Unfortunately, I can't take delivery for another couple weeks due to my business trip

My car is on that ship too going to Toronto. Our Ship was 5 days late (maybe even on purpose), and it got DISCHARGED on the 21 and 23-rd LINER RELEASE, whatever that means.

CA is telling me there is a huge back log and problems @ Halifax so he has no idea and now actually asking BMW Canada for an update (which he has never done before for previous stages).

Well, my car's production date was listed as 03/23/2015 so I'm not sure what will happen at this point. The OP mentions that it will likely be coming to Halifax Autoport and given the current conditions, I'm starting to doubt that this will be an early May delivery.

This wait it killing me...CA ha no clue when the car will be in Toronto. Its sitting in Halifax since 03/09.
Any ideal how long it takes to install MPPK and MPE at the port?

how does isntalling parts at the port work?
i was always curious about this.
do you have to contact them directly and do you save a significant amount of money?

[DrifterX]

I thought port installations were no longer offered? I also have the same questions as 1lyfe above.

[Nirvanatude]

So part of my build is the M Performance Pkg II. As per my CA both M Power kit (MPPK) and M performance exhaust (MPE) will be installed at the Halifax Autoport. It will appear on the window sticker and will be resudialized in my lease so yes I save money on that and on labor. I don't have to contact to the port or anything...I wish I had to so I would have called them everyday to check on status

what happens with all the parts that originally came with the car?

[greengoose]

My car was a Jan prod and arrived at the dealership on March 20th. It had apparently been stuck in ice at autoport, and had numerous area of damage on it (rocker panel was falling off when it arrived, big scuff on back bumper, scratch on driver door and scratch on front bumper).

I have no clue

Are you serious?? thats crazy. This all should have been fixed at the port itself.

I was checking with a few others waiting for deliveries the BMW True North group and there's still a number of members waiting for their cars that have arrived at port since January. This is really starting to worry me.

I don't want to wait till June or July for my car. I checked 2wglobal and my car has been loaded onto the ship today and is due arrive at Halifax port April 19.

Has anyone here recently taken delivery of their cars?

All you need to do is drive to Halifax and take delivery then drive back. ROAD TRIP.

I doubt you'll need to worry, I took delivery of my car exactly two weeks ago but it was at the dealer by March 20th (Toronto); btw, my production date was 1/30.

I assume they have probably taken care of most of the backlog by now...

Thanks. I talked to my sales rep and she mentions that it should be clear by now and I should have the car by mid May the latest if not earlier.

My car's due to arrive at the port on April 21st so if there are no further delays, mid May sound about right.

Mid May is a good estimate but it may be even sooner; my car arrived at the dealer 7 days after the "DELIVERED FROM" status in WWL's tracking. But, my car was in "DISCHARGED" status in Halifax for 16 days before that lol.

[steve@codemybimmer]

Wow, my car went from liner release to delivered from status just a day after it arrived. Does that mean I can expect the car to arrive within a week? This is good news because I'm spending way too much on a car rental.

DELIVERED FROM HALIFAX, NS 23-04-2015 10:37:32 1
DISCHARGED HALIFAX, NS 22-04-2015 21:23:09 1
LINER RELEASE HALIFAX, NS 22-04-2015 09:50:03

I am still waiting for my car which is at port since March 9
But I think you should get yours in about 10-14 days as weather is no longer an issue now. Its the cars that were stuck in ice are taking so long.
