Her distance from Baltimore is no longer measured in days, just hours…. Welcome to the US!

Hmm, she was scheduled to dock this morning, but the most recent updates I can find for her location are from yesterday. Anyone seeing otherwise?

Still sailing, very close though. Could be 15-24hrs before it reaches Baltimore.

She arrived at Port of Baltimore earlier this morning! I hope those offloading here see their cars soon.

Excruciating isn’t it!! My ship is off the coast of Ireland so I’m about to lose her for a few days. Keep me posted, my CA says they’re not seeing any stop sales at the port of late. And congratulations!! So close you are, hope springs eternal!!

I'm not sure she is actually at Port of Baltimore. I'm seeing her moored at Sparrows Point which is 7 miles away from Baltimore Port. Possibly waiting for dock space in Baltimore???

BMW VPC is at Sparrows Point. Ship might stop at two more docks before it leaves Baltimore.

Yep, as vj123, that's where the BMW VDC/VPC is located in Baltimore:

Yes, although since this sailing was billed as "cars only" from Bremerhaven, perhaps she won't have to offload farm equipment or other vehicles elsewhere in Baltimore. Just speculating...

I remember when first seeing some guys tracking the ships, I thought "Wow, that's a fairly depraved level of obsession." Yet here I am...

I just received from my CA: "Your new BMW M3 has arrived at the Processing Center in MD and now just awaiting transport here. I will let you know once it arrives and is ready for you to take delivery.".......Keep pinching myself......

Awesome. So does this mean no stop sales or other delays? Keep us posted!

From CA : "No stop sales or anything else that I can see that would hold up your M3 from arriving here"

Good to hear. Performance Center told me they've seen some stop sales that pop up only once the car arrives at VPC, but maybe/hopefully that's a relic of issues earlier in the year.

It's killing me that my car's so close today to where I live, yet I won't see it for another ~month.

...and she's off to Brunswick, GA! Looks like she's running a day behind schedule, though oddly there's a three-day gap between Brunswick and Charleston even though that's a quick sail up the coast. Hopefully Charleston can squeeze her in earlier...
