bimmer813 I was thinking the same thing. It just flipped to "In-Transit" for me on the "My BMW" tracking page. I'm waiting for BMW Genius to open up this morning to find out the name of the ship it's on. The waiting is the hardest part!

I'm most likely on the same boat....

Mine is on the Polaris Highway. It will arrive in Galveston on the 15th. I would guess maybe another 4 or 5 days to make it to my dealer?

Yeah, here's the official policy from the PCD folks that I got for the PCD date...

As noted in the guidelines shown below, delivery dates are scheduled a minimum of 8 weeks after completed production for German built vehicles. These guidelines are also shown at the top of the reservation form that was submitted.

Guidelines for determining delivery dates, based on the vehicle’s production, are listed below. Please be aware that production changes, EPA/CARB holds for new models, shipping delays, repair holds, VDC Installed Accessories (VIA) and PCD availability may effect this calculation.

German Built Vehicles
Delivery dates are scheduled a minimum of 8 weeks after completed production.
Customer must take delivery no later than 12 weeks after completed production.
South Carolina Built Vehicles
Delivery dates are scheduled a minimum of 2 weeks after completed production.
Customer must take delivery no later than 6 weeks after completed production.
South African Built Vehicles
Due to extended shipping times and delays, these vehicles cannot be scheduled until they arrive at a US port.
European Re-Delivery Vehicles
These vehicles must arrive in the US and be processed by both US Customs and the BMW VDC before a delivery date can be determined.


The current delivery date is based on the estimated production date for the vehicle. This vehicle is a week 25 production and a week 25 production is normally scheduled for delivery on 08/16/2019 or later. We build in a little over a week buffer time for shipping delays since customer’s are making travel plans. We do not want the customer to arrive and be here without their new BMW.

I do not understand how there are, apparently, so many next day production slots available.
Mine went into production 7 weeks after order received ��

Depends on dealer allocation. I got lucky that my dealer had a car scheduled for production the next day so they were happy to deal on this car to have a buyer lined up, plus I was able to have it go into production immediately.

Do you know how much time is needed between when the car arrives at port and when it can leave on a ship? For example, if a car arrives at the port on July 11 would that be too soon to leave on a ship departing July 12/13?

I'm trying to guess which ship my car may leave on based upon the current status...which may be a pointless endeavor anyway.

It's possible it could leave within a day of arriving at the port, but it depends on how many other vehicles are waiting. My understanding is that they batch them together so that there are enough going to a particular destination.

My G20 arrived at port the day before an East Coast-bound ship but ended up catching the next one. It's tough to predict.

That's helpful to know. Thanks for the response!
