Did some googling. Found this.

"German automaker BMW is relocating its Port of Baltimore vehicle distribution center from the state's Dundalk Marine Terminal to the75,000-square foot facility at Tradepoint Atlantic, a 3,300 acre industrial site in Sparrows Point, Maryland. The company expects to create 60 full-time jobs on-site.

According to Tradepoint Atlantic BMW of North America will open a 35 acre vehicle distribution center, which will nearly double the size of its current facility. BMW will continue to operate at the Dundalk through September as the carrier transitions to Tradepoint. "

Great, hopefully this means the cars are offloaded and the stop sales can be worked on.

Last time I checked with genius they said I was headed for Charleston. Probably because of PCD. So I'm guessing my car is still on the boat. (Maybe)

Anyone have a guess at when status may change and I can find out if parts are there and a work order will be started?

I’d give it a day or two. But do share whatever you experience from here on, especially delivery date lead times at the Performance Center once your work order is closed. I’m exactly a week behind you!

Good for you! So just under 2 weeks from the time Greer VPC checked in your car to when they close your case on the RAM retrofit, right? Maybe you'll be able to snag that Monday 11/15 slot that MavRick was offered and declined.

My car got checked in last Friday, so I'm still tracking 2 weeks behind you. Ditto tmilnthorp, AFAIK.

Thought I'd resurrect this thread. My car is on the current voyage of the Hawaiian Highway. Genius says that the vessel left Bremerhaven on 11/6 and will be in Baltimore on 11/17. Anyone else with me?

I am a week 40 and have been sitting in port since 10/23. Was hoping to get on your Hawaiian Highway but looks like I missed it. Looks like Olympian Highway may be the next next shot.

For those on the Hawaiian Highway, should be leaving Bremerhaven today and heading straight to Baltimore for a 11/21 arrival. Don't know why our cars show loaded on 11/6, but I'll take it!
