Hope everyone else on the Grand Mark is getting their cars soon too!

My car was on the Grand Mark as well. I am hoping to take delivery on 6/19 or 6/21, if all goes well. Stay tuned!

my car is stuck at the port in galveston. Sales rep told me there is a stop ship of the LR door and Speaker. I got the HK option. No clue what this is about. I ordered in late april.

Mine was on RCC classic and dropped off in galveston. I was told there is a stop sale on the LR door / speaker. So I am in the same situation as you are.

what is a stop sale? how does it get resolved?

Mine came into Newark Saturday and my CA told me today it is expected to be delivered to the dealership this coming Saturday with a planned pick up date of 7/23. However, she threw in the disclaimer at the very end of our call that there could be unforeseen hold ups at the port (such as what you've mentioned). I'm not getting my hopes up until the keys are in my hand.

Mine was also on the Grand Mark like a few others. Spoke a Genius who informed me that the car will be placed on a truck on Thursday but did mention that it's subject to change. He suggested that I call by Wednesday to see if there are any delays.

Status changed to in transit today, not sure how long it takes to drive from NJ to Boston but looks good for Friday delivery.

Dealership emailed shortly after to confirm we're shooting for a Friday afternoon pickup.

My car has been stuck in ready for transport from the Mexico plant for over 4 days, I see that there’s an Ship called Adria Ace that docked yesterday and is leaving tomorrow, hope it’s on that ship.

[CharliesBigMouth]

I think BMW uses Hyundai Glovis ships to ship cars from the Mexico plant to the East Coast.

You can get a good idea of what those ships are by going to importinfo.com, typing "BMW of North America" as the consignee and "HDGL" as the carrier code. You'll get a list of ships that have gone from Veracruz to ports on the East Coast and from there you can usually check the arrivals at Veracruz and Altamira (I feel like some people have had their cars leave from Altamira, but I'm not sure) to see if any of those ships have come in. They usually have names like "Grand XXX", "Glovis XXX", "RCC XXX", or "XXX Highway".

[Patrickm340i]

can someone help me find some predicted ships that could be transporting m340i to the east cost specifically Newark. Car is stuck at ready for transport and is in transit to port VeraCruz since monday. Dont know if its already on a ship and they didnt update or still in transit.

[drj_zoidberg]

Just for reference, the last round was at the port almost 3 weeks before a ship was available.

I never figured out how to predict what actual ship would grab my car, but the best method is to check importinfo for ships that regularly go between Veracruz/Altamira and Galveston carrying BMWs, then check those out on https://www.marinetraffic.com/en/ais...ry:-0.2/zoom:2

But honestly you won't know for sure until your car is on a ship and genius confirms it. Patience is a virtue here.

You can go on marinetraffic.com and look at the ports of Veracruz and Altamira and see what car carriers are scheduled to arrive there. Then you can put the vessel name into importinfo.com and see if it is has the carrier code "HDGL" which is the carrier BMW uses to ship BMWs from Mexico to the East Cost. If it does then there is a good chance it will pick up your car.

[Patrickm340i]

I think i just found a ship called Victoria Highway, it arrived at VeraCruz at monday and departed wednesday yesterday, its on its way to Altamira and expected to arrive at port today. My car finished production last week friday and was being shipped to port this monday. I hope it made it on this ship since this ship left wednesday at VeraCruz

UPATE: My M340i xDrive was on the Grand Mark. My CA just advised me it is transit and will arrive at the dealership tomorrow, 6/19!

[drj_zoidberg]

Came down to the wire today, dealer has some issues with the insurance and registration but they pulled through so I could have the weekend with my baby. That was a long 2 months but totally worth it!

[CharliesBigMouth]

Congrats! Those wheels look especially good.

[Portimao Blues]

Congratulations! I wish I had mine for the weekend! My CA texted me a pic of my car this morning and said it just arrived. I am hoping to take delivery early this week.

I got word a couple days ago that my part came in and it was actually a recall with the Bluetooth reciever. The car was supposed to be delivered today at the dealership but my dealer said that it did not come in and it'll probably come in Tuesday now. But it looks like they're fixing or fixed the stop sale. How's your experience been?

Just got confirmation that my vehicle from Veracruz got on the ship Glovis Captain yesterday and has departed today

I have not heard anything, all I was told was an issue with the Left Rear door/ speaker. So hoping its the same issue as yours.

[bimmerbenz65]

Supposedly its 2 issues holding the cars as a stop sale- something in the left rear door and then an audio related issue, both of which supposedly have no remedy yet.
