Thanks. With my luck mine is probably sitting in some port in china

I am thinking I am in the same boat or really, ON the same boat. BMW Genius does not know yet, but considering it was loaded on March 2 and takes a couple of days to register "in transit" seems logical. Considering I was "at the port" on Feb 23 eight days from port to ship seems fast as of late - maybe port delays are clearing.

The timeline in general was fast: Nov 22: deposit, Jan 23: production number & looks to be 60 maybe 65 days from PN to delivery. Dealer said it would most likely be end of April at best which is what I was looking for but it looks to be a warm spring. Dont want to wrap the thing around a tree like the guy with the G82 in Westchester about 10 days ago. Going to run 19's all around for winter set up but did not want to pony up the $$$ until fall.

Really exciting. Nice car is a first for me.

I haven’t been able to confirm that my car is actually on that ship just yet. But, following the same logic that you just laid out, it’s highly likely it’s on that ship. Just waiting for their manifest to update online so I can find out if my VIN is on the list.

My status flipped to "in transit" today as well

Need to call the SA/Genius for confirmation on the ship.

What ship are you on? Did you confirm what port it left from : Zeebrugge or bremehaven


I got to the port a day before you, but my status still shows “at the port”

I got to the port before facebiter and road rage Ritchie but for some reason my car is still at the port. I just hope it’s in Zeebrugge waiting to be put on Don Carlos which is more direct to Brunswick -March 17th arrival date, or it’s gonna flip by March 7th cos it just got picked up at zeebrugge on captain asian

Sadly for me, horizon Highway doesn’t pass through Brunswick. I hope I am on Don Carlos, that’s the only reasonable reason I still am at the port
