Lucky you - still 5 days to my production date of 2/19. Maybe I should join the week 8 crowd

Once it starts, it moves quite quickly.

You have the advantage over me in shipping distance

You’re off to the races now! There’s an actual physical car and not just an order sheet

I guess I need to join this thread now. I was told week 8 production but now my car is on the way to the port!

My G82 made it to Bremerhaven...hope it doesn't take too long to catch a ship to California.

Congrats - nearly done!

I’ve watched videos showing the production line for the car - best part is when they take out a tool to check the panel gaps by hand. All I can think is that Tesla needs crates of those.

As of this morning, my car shows as in transit. I will give the Genius hotline a call tomorrow, when it is not a holiday, to find out what ship it is on. Not sure how I got so lucky to sit at the port for only a day or so when my car has to go to California

Mine just arrived to the port. There is a ship leaving tomorrow that is headed to Galvenston. Hopefully I will be able to make it on there!

Ok, BMW Genius was open today. Car is on the Viking Queen due into Port Hueneme on March 11, which is way faster than I thought it would show up!

In a plot twist, my car was loaded onto a ship in Zeebrugge, Beligium, rather than Bremerhaven. I guess BMW uses that port as well.

Finally I’m on the boat ! 😊

On its way, at last... Now needs to catch a ship.

Wonder if you will go to Bremerhaven or end up at Zeebrugge like me

[BimmerTW]

My status still shows “at the port”. I’m hoping I’m on one of the two ships bound for Baltimore that left Bremerhaven yesterday.
