Me too, and I’m week 10. Still sitting at the port. Hoping I made it on Orion Highway. Assuming I’ll find out tomorrow.

I am also in route. As an FYI: My car must have boarded ship on March 31st, but BMW's my garage only updated to "in transit" this week (~10 days later).

By the book! I babied mine too, paid too much money to muck it up and then some old lady totaled it on Valentine’s Day! New one waiting at the port so it’s all good because I get to do it all over again!

Do you think it affected it in any way?

No, not at all. You’d have run it at redline for quite a while and often to do a real disservice to the car.

Even so,it was at the rev limiter that the car has for these type of cases,so it wasn’t an actual redline. Thank you so much. I can sleep well now❤️😅

I was tracking a non customer assigned G80 to Houston, and it said "At the Port" for a solid month. Then as of 4 days ago said "In Transit". Called BMW Genius, said it was at the VPC and due at the Dealership the next day. SMH. These cars are not getting updated as to when they actually leave the port. She said it has been common occurrence for in transit to mean at your VPC.

Finally got a build allocation !! Hopefully goes into production soon !! Can’t wait . Typically for a manual build give or take how long for production if it’s a pretty base build ?

My status changed to In Transit on March 27th yet my CA is telling me it's still at port of exit waiting to get on a boat. WTF!

Latest message from my CA: "We just heard from BMW and they said they have a certain number of cars that are taking a little longer to transit to Port of Exit due to congestion. Located in a second holding facility, they are slowly making their way."

Mine did the same. Was in transit for a while, then back in Port. The next time it switches to In Transit it's most likely in actual transit
