Coming from Germany? You know when it got to the port? Mine didn't get to the port until 28 June and still managed to get on Apollon Highway, which left 30 June.

Mine hasn't changed status in over a week. The reps say it's at the port waiting on a ship. About how long would that normally take? how long does it normally take to get to the US from Mexico?

Sounds like yours might be on the Apollon Highway as well. Yours went to "In Transit" around the same time as mine.

Yes, could very well be.
Now for the wait.... The soonest date for new PCD is something like 8/18 -8/20.

I placed my order about 5 weeks ago and still haven’t gotten a production number to track the progress, sigh. I was told I should be getting it within the next 10 days

Mine sat at the port in MX for 22 days before it left on a boat and took 8 days to get to its destination in GA. It arrived today. Now to see how long it takes to get down to me.

I found that the tracker doesn't show every step in the process. Mine showed "ready for transport" on June 8th. I didn't get an update until June 26th when it went to "dispatched from factory" then "in transit" on the same day. It's scheduled to arrive in Brunswick on July 6th.

Based on that information, the ship left Mexico around the 25th. It goes to Galveston TX first which takes 2-3 days, then another 8 days or so to Brunswick, and another couple days from there to Baltimore.

So depending on where in the US your car will be offloaded, it will take between 3 days and 2 weeks once it's on the ship.

Yeah I figured its pretty behind. I'm not in a rush since I still have my current Audi lease through the end of July, but my understanding is that BMW FS locks in your rates and deal for 60 days, so I'm hoping it won't go past that time frame. I've heard that they can lock it in longer if the car takes too long, but not sure how accurate that is.

The good news is once it gets to NY (the port is actually in NJ though) my dealer is right over the tunnel so it'll probably be pretty quick once its offloaded.

Yes, the rates are locked in for 60 days but here is the deal - at least at my dealership. I have ordered 2 BMW in the past year and a half which have taken more than 60 days from order to delivery.

The dealer will resubmit the finance/lease application before it expires to renew it. If the rates are better, you will get that, if not, you should be locked in to the previously agreed upon numbers. The down side is that they will run your credit report again. You may have to remind your SA to resubmit the application.

My deal was locked in for 4 months because transport took 72 days due to COVID-19....actually got a much better finance rate...

Just got off the phone with customer relations. So the tracker still shows it as ready for transport as it has for the past few weeks, but the rep said that it had left the port and is in transit. She didn't have an estimated arrival date or a vessel name though - but still good news

I still don't have the car...

Sat for 7 weeks in Bremerhaven, made the transit to Halifax Canada where it sat for another 3 weeks before being loaded onto a train.

It arrived in Calgary where I live on June 30... still has not made it to the dealer.

To say i'm frustrated is an understatement. Especially when I noticed I paid $2995 (CAD) for freight, have been making insurance payments since Feb & Car Payments since April and have nothing to show for it.

The delivery process has been a complete failure at every step in the process. The dealer, while nice and has been doing well communicating has no real methods they can use. The structure of the company has everything goto the dealer to solve problems who can't actually do anything...

what. the. actual. **
Dang I can only imagine.. I'm sorry you're going through that mess but don't mind me asking, why are you paying for insurance and making payments on the vehicle if you haven't received it yet? I'm in the states so I'm not familiar how it works in your neck of the woods but it sounds absurd to have to pay for something that wasn't delivered..
