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...

Grand Orion
Well.. if we are at sea longer, I guess some Rum is due for next weekend's arrival!

PCD takes longer, if it's delivered to the dealership it SHOULD be 6 weeks.

It's still crazy that it can take so long to get this because I was told 8 weeks from order to me in the driver seat. I have 00000 patience.

Out of curiosity, has anybody who had a 90+ day wait time had their credit run multiple times? I did the initial credit check and got pre approved before putting down the $2k deposit. I've read some comments where ppl state they had to have another credit check after 60 days or something.

This was never mentioned up front to me nor has my dealer said anything about it since we got the approval and agreed on our pricing. Wondering if anyone may have any input on this bc I don't want them running multiple hard pulls on my credit if avoidable.

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

Grand Orion
I'm seeing 3/7 now. Would be interesting to understand why the variance in dates... Geek mode on.

I've been using the FleetMonitor 2 week free trial service that tracks via satellite. Looks to be more than halfway there.

ETA based on FleetMonitor is 03-07-20 6PM EST. See below for an update.

It appears you have a production number, which means your car will enter production any day now! Status 112
Considering it takes my Chinese company 90 days to fullfill Poly carbonate/Acrylic food canister orders, I think 6-8 weeks for a semi bespoke built BMW is pretty impressive. That said, the wait can be brutal, yet oh so rewarding when you collect the car.

It's been a week since my car has hit the "ready for transport" stage... everyone seems to get through this in 1 day at most. This wait is driving me crazy... I think I said that recently.
