My understanding is that no one gets the assignment until the vehicle has been on the ship for about 2 days.

At least that was my understanding after reading the sticky on orders... and then again I had the impression it's at port for about 2 days.

Why are we so impatient and why do we keep on fueling this? What is wrong with us?!

Oh wait, we're excited children.

Using marinetraffic.com, it appears that the Theben has left Bremerhaven and is heading towards the English channel, first two stops are UK and Belgium, then to the US. MyBMW still shows me as "at port" but it may take a couple days to update so I'm optimistic I should be on that boat!

Many of the procedures and steps on that are still correct. But date wise, not so as that post was written in 2015. The delays and shortages weren't a thing then.

Anyone else obsessively put their vin in W&W's website assuming BMW's garage was wrong?
How do you put your VIN in WW’s website? I tried the link from the sticky but it does not work.

It's been updated, you can no longer track by Vin unfortunately.

My car arrived at the port 1/9/22. Just got off the phone with genius and was advised will probably not get on boat until end of month, then arrive in Baltimore middle of February, assuming all goes well.

Yeah the Theben left port yesterday, so I'll give it the "two days to update" or whatever, but my gut feeling is I'm probably not on the boat either.

Really?
When I ordered my F80 you would simply enter your vin into "customer ref number" and it would confirm.

Guess times have changed. Oh well.

Yup, they stated they made the change for security purposes.

yeah now that I found out the lock in period is 90 days instead of 60, I don't feel as bad.

It's still only been 2 days since theben left. It could still update.

There's 2 more leaving here shortly-ish. If not on theben I hope I'm not on Salome 😂 apparently super slow getting to Baltimore, whereas arc integrity leaves 2 days later and beats it.

Let's hope your CA is right!! My CA is worthless when it comes to updating me on things! I've also been in port since 1/9…. And it's going to be even longer until I hit US soil because I'm going all the way to Charleston!! My CA is from BMW of Rochester in Ny

Looking at the threads it appears that weeks 1, 2, and 3 members are all at the port... many going to NY. Hopefully that's enough to get many of us on Porgy!

We need to set up a Northeast Week 1 meet whenever we get our cars!

@bimmerman - if we're not... then another week of complaining and obsessing.

Anybody else's winter wheels coming tomorrow lol
