in transit! my first post! hi!
Hey everyone!
I’m new here but I’ve been lurking for awhile ever since I put down a deposit almost exactly one year ago at Gebhardt BMW in Boulder, CO. Happy to report my car is “In Transit”. It was “Order Recieved” on January 14 and has been moving steadily along since then. I don’t really have any questions, just wanted to introduce myself but if anyone has any tips on how to send some favorable winds and currents to make the boat go faster, I’m all ears. Oh wait, I do have a question: where can you see which port it is headed to? It’s actually been quite fun following along and my kids think it’s entertaining. Oh wait, I thought of another question for those with young (age 5-7) kids… car seat or other kid accessory recommendations?? If it’s helpful, I’ll post more updates as it steams along. |

Welcome and congrats! Please find the link below to the tracking of mine when it was in transit:

Another link for those of us that were a week 35 build:
https://g80.bimmerpost.com/forums/sh....php?t=1943740 As most of us do, we were geeking out when it got to this point in the journey for our M3/M4. Yes, it was fun following the build and transit. Hope you enjoy it too. So worth it!

Just ask your CA what your port is. That information is available immediately when the order is accepted by BMW. It's listed on your build sheet. Genius also has that info. They can tell you your boat once it is listed as In Transit (assuming it's the real In Transit and not the fake meaning it's getting transferred from inland German car depot to real Port- Bremerhaven or Zeebrugge).

I ordered mine from Winslow in January. It's now built heading to the port in Germany. Super excited!

Fun update! The ship reached the port in Long Beach today. I’m letting myself get borderline excited now. Does the last week (or so) seem to take the longest?!

Two weeks late but this was an awesome day!! My dog didn’t know how to react. Maybe she thought the alarm system didn’t have enough teeth.
