In 2021 my car came off and the very next day it was at my dealership. Had to check the odometer to make sure someone didn't drive it directly to Austin. It was literally one of the first M3's in Austin. hahaha.

I am showing Back at the Port, I wonder if that's because it's been offloaded or just because the Vessel is there........

Next Stop, Dealership!!

I'm "At the port" too. When it shows "In Transit" again, that means it's on a car carrier.

Just spoke to BMW Genius. She said my car has been offloaded but not yet made it to the Vehicle Processing Centre and to call back tomorrow to see where it is at. She said (and we know it changes all the time and many factors that can impact it), that she would expect my car to be assigned a carrier and on the way to the Dealership by Thursday. She was certainly one of the more helpful ones, whether or not she knows what she is talking about, we will see.

Yeah, it all varies.

In 2013 when I ordered my Cayenne, it was at Porsche North within 24 hours of the ship being docked. 24 hours later we were picking it up. It was the end of July and they really wanted that sale on the books!

I just called BMW Genius and they said that my vehicle is confirmed to be processed today. He said to call back before 9pm est today because once it is in processing his computer will give him a dealership arrival date. So close now!!!!

My wheels and calipers changed once it went back to the port. Hope it's just an error. I had red calipers with black rims.
