Adding a new datapoint, my car left from Zeebrugge, Belgium and not Bremerhaven.

I have not, however I did a search and believe I may be on the Apollon Highway based on the dates/timing I found here:

I saw what town you are from.

Tracking ships is not as easy as tracking flights! I have no idea what ships are leaving Bremerhaven w port Hueneme as the destination

And the car could leave from Zeebrugge so two ports to try and gather tiny bits of information on…

No way! I bought my x3m from there and would’ve loved to get my G80 from them too but they couldn’t get me an allocation. I’m getting mine from Park Ave BMW in Jersey but I actually live 10 min away from Habberstad. I’m sure we’ll cross paths soon lol

I actually live in California now, but am originally from Long Island. I think I have visited nearly every BMW dealer on the island, probably Competition BMW in Smithtown the most.

Been at port for 91 days. Week 47 build from last year. Still waiting to get on a ship. Anything can happen

Wtf?!?! How is that possible?! We are seeing new cars leave within two weeks or so. Something doesn’t sound right…
Which port is planned as entry? I would demand my dealer contact the local rep to push a quick resolution.

It’s going to Galveston. It was there in time for the past two ships that have made an entire journey around the world and back at this point. BMW has no explanation except for the record snowstorm in November forced them to stop shipping first in first out. The same two ships heading to Galveston leave next week and more than anything just hoping I’m on them otherwise order will probably be cancelled after sitting in the weather for over 100 days

Made it on a boat, Atlas Leader, set for arrival in Port Hueneme on 3/19-3/22

Glad you both finally made it out of the port. I was starting to feel guilty.

Mine landed in Baltimore and changed back to 193. Genius says we've been "aligned with a carrier" and should be departing the VDC on the 29th. Not looking great for this weekend, but looking really good for sometime early next week (coincidentally my busiest week all month...)

jbirdav8r · 03-02-2024, 10:53 AM

She’s here! Arrived at dealership yesterday in perfect weather!

Sadly, don’t think I’ll be able to pick her up until Thursday, but there’s a chance I might be able to make it over there earlier.
