I live in the Philly area. Roads definitely aren't perfect by any means. I've never had PPF on any cars I've owned, and I've never been bothered by the minor imperfections that happen. I've also always used automatic car washes and never focused too much on paint swirls/condition. I'm likely to move away from the weekly automatic car wash and take a bit better care of the paint, but I'm not going to be OCD about it. Never have been, so don't see why I should start now.

This will definitely be the nicest car I've owned, but I've had a couple of Audi's and another BMW, so it's not night and day. More excited to drive it than look at it - although I'm pretty pumped to look at it too.

if you don't mind me asking, why you want to back out? You want a different spec/car?

Well the morning Cindy is docked in Bremerhaven, presumably loading cars. Let’s see if anybody gets loaded!

Trying not to get my hopes up, but I will certainly be checking status first thing in the morning.

Even if we get on Morning Cindy, the likely ILA strike could still massively delay things.

FYI it’s usually a couple days after you get on a boat that the status changes.

Unfortunately that won't keep me from obsessively refreshing my status.

If anyone else has too much time on their hands on a Sunday, here's a live webcam of the port.

Screenshot from earlier today when it was light enough to see the Morning Cindy.

Does anyone know if the Morning Cindy will make a stop at Baltimore? Only thing I can find online is that it's next destination is Sweden.

Hello everyone, I was also assigned week 38. I can tell everyone is as eager as me to receive their M3. I live in Puerto Rico and I'm having mine delivered here. Most shipments to the island usually come from Jacksonville, FL. Does anyone know how the timeline/route from Bremerhaven to Florida looks like?
