Agreed on lack of details for us lowly Canadians haha. I was just saying in a DM how this 4 month wait is agonizing just because we get 'some' updates on the BMW tracker. I was much more patient waiting 12+ months for the Jag and my AMG before because there were only 1 or 2 milestone updates and I knew I wasn't going to get any details until it was close.

It is frustrating though trying to time the sale of my current vehicle without having a clue of when the M4 will arrive. That and I can't risk putting my 'M4 fund' into a locked GIC because I know the second I do I'll get a call from the dealer that it has arrived lol. Same with arranging for PPF and my planned road trip to get through the break-in period.

Oh, and sales guy did call me finally and said to expect it around April 17th assuming no trouble with the strike...but he couldn't provide any more specific details or a status code.

So whatever that's worth, hopefully I do get it soon. It's not that I'm in such a hurry, I more so want to know a solid date so I can book my car in for PPF and ceramic coating (the place I go to has a waiting list lol).

your M3's ETA in the system should show April 10th, but because of the strike currently ongoing at the Halifax port, you might see this delaying the arrival date by a week or so. Contact your dealership next week again for a better estimate.

I have an m4 at the port in Bremerhaven as we speak- got there on March 20.

My dealer sent me a screenshot of the status from their system. I see an 'estimated delivery week" of May 20. How accurate are these estimates?

I believe only someone experienced from a dealership can answer that question

thanks for this! Also today got news from my dealership that the car is on rail with a revised earlier ETA than the estimated initial one, since arriving at Halifax port on the 25th of March.

Burrcold you might want to check with your dealership if you haven't already, because yours might arrive also early next week!

Awesome!

How long would it be from getting on the ship to the anticipated delivery date for you? And what city are you in?

Good news!

2024 g80?

How long from arriving in Halifax to your dealer in Toronto?

[Speedyf16]

Nice!!!
My dealer also said today they think it's on rail! They're still hedging on 3-6 weeks though lol.

Just swapped my SiriusXM over to the M4 (which comes with a 5 month free trial, woo) and the Jag is sold today . Few weeks of braving Calgary traffic in my mint '96 Integra haha

Mine got held up for almost 3 weeks because of the strike. So only about a week once they processed it and got it moving to the dealership.

Thanks! It's basically going straight to get PPF/Ceramic coating for almost a week, so I'll only have a few hours with it...still nice to know it's here though!

Sorry, replying late but got busy these past days ...
From what I know so far, mine was completed on 29th Feb/1st Mar, then I know the next update was that on 15th Mar the car was at Bremerhaven at the port of exit and waiting to be put on a vessel but I still dont know exactly when it was loaded onto the ship...
Next, after arriving at the Halifax port and because of the strike and such it took around 17 more days to reach the dealership.
I am in Waterloo/KW.

[Burrcold]

Finally arrived!! 😊

[Vectors2final]

Congrats, I'm excited for you.

I about broke my neck on that first one.
