So i ordered my 2013 335i m sport and i looked on the website and i see the car was completed last week and waiting for transport. Does anyone know how long more before it comes to my dealer? i know the car is coming from south africa.

It usually takes anywhere from 1-14 days to wait for a boat, then 28-42 days on a boat, and then a 3-7 days at the port of arrival before it gets to your dealer.

UPDATE: i looked online and it now says US Enroute

Ask your dealer for an updated VIR (Vehicle Inquiry Report). This will tell you the name of the vessel that is transporting the vehicle.

Ask your CA for the details and pull a current VIR and send it to you. Which dealer are you using?

Call your CA and get the name of the vessel. From there you can track it (I did daily when I was waiting for my E92 to arrive) here ...

Once it has made it to port either east coast or west coast you can zoom in and see all the cars that have been unloaded. (I will always remember the day my car got to port in Oxnard)

Hope this helps :-)
