My dealer's local to Baltimore w/ good relationships at the Port and my car's been sitting for 5 weeks. I think those connections may help when there are parts but therein lies the problem … there are no parts.

I did speak to my CA today who stated he does not expect much to happen until Wednesday due to very bad weather and MLK Day on Monday. He went on to say he can't get any answers in regards to when this will be resolved as know one seems to know when parts will arrive.

I'm really not tracking it all … call or text my CA once a week or so. Genius is of very little help so I no longer even bother.

Sauce is insane! Let's see if we get these cars soon .. agree with you on them sitting in the elements for an extended period of time.

I'd be pretty psyched if we saw some movement on Wednesday. Wednesday will be the start of my ninth week at the VPC.

Not to get off topic, but are you letting your M5 go? I admired your car when I was considering a CPO M5. I can't imagine how you will mod the M3.

Hey brother!

Thank you so much for the kind words.

This thread about Baltimore VPC has been an amazing source of information and the reason I have spending some time over here. I'm actually waiting on an Individual 22' M5C.

As for my current 19' M5C, my brother is going to buy it. Believe it or not, the payoff is in the mid 50's (this car was of the first delivered so Lease Programs and RV's were garbage). That turned out to be a blessing in disguise.
