I know I’m not the only one waiting here, some have had builds completed back in October timeframe, and I’ve been at the port waiting on a carrier since 14NOV to make the journey across the Atlantic & make it to Maryland. All I’m saying here, what is the holdup? I get it Bremerhaven is stacked full of cars (Not just BMW’s) but C’mon man!!! 😂😂 I thought for sure my G80 would be in transit by now. Who’s with me? Any new news? Possible carriers in the next few weeks?

So mine is heading to Baltimore and it just flipped to in transit this morning.
Arrived at port on 12/5.
I called genius but they do not know what vessel it is yet, but it shows exit of port as of 12/21.
I am assuming it’s patriot.

Maybe I just haven’t caught the “In Transit” in my garage yet. If your heading to Baltimore from Bremerhaven I would assume (a$$ out of me) then I should be there bumper 2 bumper w/ you. Fingers crossed, but I’m optimistic until proven otherwise. Thanks for sharing & congrats on your new ride.

Anything is possible I guess, I didn’t get the Xdrive not that they would notice that unless they are paying attention. Did you get the Red interior too?

Yes, Fiona red!
Thank you! You too man, Congratz!
Let’s hope we both make it into the same boat.
Patriot will stay at the port for another day. It might flip to in-transit tomorrow.

It may have been moving from Krefeld (another place cars go from the factory) to Bremerhaven.

Is this for m3 ?
I thought m3s are built and sent directly to bremerhaven?
Any reason why they would send it to Krefeld?

I'm not sure of the exact details but I remember reading on the forums that people had their dealers turn on the GPS tracking and they determined that their cars were held at Krefeld first before going to Bremerhaven.
