Lots of vessels coming and going. Wait for the "In Transit" message then call BMW to find out which one!

My car's been stuck at port for 2 weeks now. On top of that my SA and the even sales manager haven't returned my emails about adding on the MPE. My previous BMW experience was great, but this is leaving me with a tinge of regret.

Hope I get a boat soon.

The wait is rough... I was at port for 18-ish days, and I checked every day to see if it moved.

Well, glad to hear 14 days isn't unheard of at least.

Hi guys,
Dealer offered me 12% off pre-incentives on a MSRP $67,670 build.
Is this good enough? Or should I try to negotiate more? Thx

I have seen the Track my BMW page in the past from a couple friends. It showed check marks as production moved to the next stage, but I do not remember it showing a date associated with each step. Has it changed and now shows dates since the last time I saw one? Or how are you all getting dates for each step?

The tracker hasn't changed... Some of us just religiously checked the My Garage page. I took screen shots every time it changed.

To those on the Grand Orion scheduled to arrive in Bayonne, NJ on 03-05-2020, here's an update.

The tracker site actually has an ETA of 03-08-2020... hopefully that's not accurate and the ship sticks to its schedule.

Was that the earliest PCD date you could get? I'm looking to do PCD in late June and was thinking I need to order around mid April, but recently it looks like 3 months is the norm for PCD orders. May need to order next month.

standard first date is +8 weeks after projected end of production. You can request an earlier date once your car arrives at VPC in SC and completes the work order. However, usually tues-thurs are only remaining days available. From past experience, usually you can pull ahead 1-2 weeks maximum.

If you want PCD in late June then plan to order first / second week of march to allow for negotiations/selecting your dealer and landing a production number with a production week by mid april. If the car arrives earlier than expected then you can request a later delivery date. Try to catch before the car is transported from VPC to PCD. If it is at PCD already they will allow up to 10 days maximum due to lot size/capacity. BTW, i'm assuming a German build not MX.

Feel free to PM if you any other questions about PCD.

So... my car's been at port for 9 days now (2/20 first time I saw the status). My CA mentioned that I should be on a Wallnius ship, and it looks like the Talisman and/or the Liberty are loading in Bremerhaven now. Anyone know they are on either of these ships?

From the Bmwguy11 fantastic tracking thread from f8X tracking page

However, if your car ends up on a WW boat (Wallenius Wilhemlsen), your VIN will show up in their search page about 2 days after your car has left the dock. Simply go here and enter your VIN into the Cargo ID field. Remember if you end up on a ship that is NOT with WW, it won't ever show up on the WW tracking page. https://www.2wglobal.com/webapps?url...uickSearchPage

I see as of yesterday the ship pushed its ETA out to 03-08-20

Had a feeling 03-05-20 was a little optimistic based on its progress...

Performance Center Delivery. You pick your car up at the performance center in South Carolina. I've never done it before, but it looks awesome. Planning on doing PCD in June.
