For those who are just starting the process, here's my timeline so far, based partly on the not-exactly-accurate 800#/internet tracking system...
328i Sport line, sport auto transmisison Ordered 2/25 In production (according to website) sometime the week after In paint shop (according to phone) 3/6 Production completed 3/8 Arrived at port 3/12 En route to US 3/17 (confirmed 3/20) Arrived in US 4/1 (confirmed 4/3) Should be able to pick up a day or two after Easter. So total wait time looks to be right at 6 weeks. Hope this helps your anxiety or stokes your anticipation, whatever your preference! Last edited by HoustonDawg; 04-04-2012 at 09:47 PM.. |

Just out of curiosity, what does it say when you call the phone #? I know you and I are both PCD with delivery dates around the same time, with similar vehicles. I've been at the status of "vehicle released to carrier and is waiting transit to the port" for 3 days now. Are you already at the port waiting for a ship or is your car parked next to mine in Munich still waiting for a truck?

It seems that cars ordered from usa are being taken in production very quickly afterwards.
Cars ordered in Europe (netherlands) usually take 3-4 months prior to delivery. My new 3 series was ordered mid feb , will go in production beginning of april and delivery beginning of may. Without any shipment overseas. Just from germany to holland by roadtruck. Interesting to see that USA orders get priority in production over european orders. Regards Dutchbmw |

At the port waiting for a ship as well. I bet all of our cars are at the port together waiting for a ride to the east coast. My CA says the car arrived at the port on 3/18, was hoping to get on the Florida.

Hallelujah! Called the BMW NA phone number for about the 70th time in the last week and my status has changed to "your vehicle is being transported to the port of exit." So I'm officially leaving Munich... now to the port and onto a ship!

Ok.. so for fun I just called the 1-800 number and I seem to have received a new status...
"Your vehicle is at the port, awaiting a shipping vessel" ... ehmmmm it was on it's way (the phone also stated this before), it arrived in CA yesterday and now back to this? I soooo hope it means I am in port for shipment to HI but, idk, it seems too fast lol.. but, if so, it would be awesome though lol

By the way, I just called the 800 number and it said 'your vehicle is a few days from arrival - please pass our apologies to svache for our huge mixup'
How weird - how did their system know that I could pass you a message?!?!?!? |
