Just curious to know if anyone (from Canada) is still at port waiting for their car to get loaded on to a ship.

I am....week 42 build produced on schedule and waiting for a ride....lol

Last time I checked with the dealer was a couple of weeks ago and they said they would let me know any change in status, but so far no updates.

I read an article that indicated the german ports are backlogged by about 4-6 weeks for all manufacturers

Any update on whether the Morning Charlotte arrived in Halifax today (27th)

Kind of concerned that big storm may have delayed her or worse yet our cars are at the bottom of the Atlantic lol.

Yup, CN rail. If you'd like to check for sure that you were on the ship you can check here: https://www.walleniuswilhelmsen.com/track-trace

Just type in AEA24801 for the BOL number and check for your VIN. Looks like a boat full of BMW's, and about 35 M3 Comps, no idea how many got dropped off in Canada though but hopefully yours did!

I think you need to know someone at CN to check. It’s a short ride anyways.

For that Morning Charlotte offload in Halifax - my dealer indicated a delivery date to them of January 12th.

Dealer is based in Mississauga.

I think there is a backlog at port because it shouldn't take two weeks to ship from Halifax to Ontario.

Car was finished production on October 20th and took until January 16th to ship to Mississauga.
