So far so good. Although I have only put about 8 miles on the car since last night. There was also a Skyscraper Gray M3 delivered with ours yesterday. 3 in 1 delivery has to be some sort of a record in these times.

How do you know? Bmwusa website not updating for me. Mine is sitting at Galveston with stop sale completed and I think it's just waiting for a truck

It changed the status to in transit within an hour, and then an hour later got a call from the dealer, and two hours later I took it.

I picked it up at the same, n at the same time n I got PZero….so no idea what spec triggers pzero vs Michelin

M0J0 · 01-30-2022, 12:24 PM

I got Michelin. No spec triggers it. It is just luck of the draw.

Spiffx · 01-30-2022, 01:52 PM

I bet there’s a guy installing the tires that takes a look at the car and says in his head “hmmm… this one is deserving of Michelins”

Spiffx · 01-30-2022, 01:55 PM

How long did it take y’all from the time your car showed “At the Port” in Germany (Bremerhaven) until you were “In Transit” on a carrier?

StockM4 · 01-30-2022, 02:03 PM

Been at the port since 1/20 …. Wtf. Originally ordered in September and i have the RAM stop sale. When should i be expecting to be on a ship and take delivery -_-
I see other week 3 builds already in transit. Mines headed to norcal, stevens creek bmw if that helps.

so i was told that cars that are stuck at port were either assigned to a vessel and awaiting to reach enough to leave port or your car has not been assigned yet, either way you have only been there a little bit more then a week, so better buckle down and expect maybe a 3 week wait.

Rono63 · 01-30-2022, 07:52 PM

Mine took 4 weeks to get assigned a ship.

That’s a long time to wait. Thanks for the info. Understanding what lies ahead helps build the patience. My car was dispatched from the factory a couple of days ago. I guess I still have a couple of months before I take delivery.
