Genius is not very useful honestly. They don’t have more than we do except when it gets on the ship. They cannot even tell you what port it arrived at until it leaves that port.

Genius I talked to couldn't even see/tell me the port where the car is loaded. I might call again and talk to another genius and see if they can help

I figured out the loading port based upon the date the car was loaded and the name of the ship.

Yea, I did that and it was Zeebrugge. But since theoretically mygarage is delayed on updates, the car could've loaded in Bremerhaven since Brooklands was there on 03/09 and got to Zeebrugge on 03/11. So..no clue lol. Regardless, it'll get to Brunswick by 03/27 or 03/28.

The arrival date is the important one…I am watching the Viking Queen sit off Baja California. I wonder when it will make its way to Port Hueneme.

Actually your car was in bremehaven. It takes about 3 days after the ship leaves for it to update. Brooklands got to bremehaven on the 7th and left on the 8th. It’s gonna leave zeebrugge today the 12th, I’m hoping mine is at zeebrugge and would flip on the 15th or so

Got it. I figured it would've been Zeebrugge due the longer QC but either works!! Hoping the rest of Week 8/9 cars start getting om boats soon.

Yes. It arrives in Halifax on Thursday March 14. This is Canadian BOL AEA40602 and there are 250 cars on the list.

When I google the VIN's most come up as no hit. Sometimes a car come up. Like the M3 CS and the M4 going to Aurora BMW. Maybe the no hits are sold already. When I google mine nothing comes up but there are a bunch of cars on my ship going to dealer that my M3 is being delivered to & those are available to purchase.

Oh, so that's why nothing comes up when searching for my VIN, because mine "is in status of already sold" ? Can you also please let me know how you are able to see which cars are destined for which dealerships on this one?

I can attest that your ship will eventually come in - my car was built in Week 7 and got to Port Hueneme today. I still do not understand the variations in shipping times...I am frustrated on all of your behalf.
