I almost went with the exact same exterior and interior colors as yours but switched to Tanzanite at the last minute. Hopefully, mine will be at the dealership this weekend. Fingers crossed!

Best of luck! Tanzanite is quite a beautiful color, especially when paired with the 792 wheels!

Ordered on Monday. Last night it said "Scheduled for production" and this morning it moved to "Production begins"

What dealership is your car going to? I wonder when it will go from the port to "in transit" again

Sterling BMW. Mine changed to “At the dealership” already, but they don’t actually have it yet, I was told to expect Monday delivery.

Woot! Just picked up my car. Almost exactly two months after I placed the initial order. TZBII with Cognac. Some quick pics:

I just got my tracking info. Its on the Valiant Ace, with an ETA to NJ port of 11/4

[teapot]

My car has arrived, will try to pick up today. The online system has been showing "At the dealership" since Saturday, actual truck delivery was on Sunday. The phone automated system is still saying "At the port". So I wouldn't trust either status. I'll update my original message with dates.

With the automated phone system - You can stay on the line for customer support, and they are always really helpful with tracking info. I used it a lot to avoid bugging my CA too much.

Picking up tonight! Here's what my SA sent me

The shine from the last pic really shows how dynamic of a color it is. Love it!

The last status from Drive Green Highway was 10/23 entering the Atlantic from the UK. I looked at the Atlantic wave height forecast and there were some very high waves predicted in the path the ship would travel. The ETA of the ship in Baltimore, and subsequently Charleston, was then pushed out 4-5 days. I assume the ship was routed around the storms/wave activity. Hopefully it shows back up on the tracking soon!

So where do we find the wave height forecast? That's awesome.

This is all hypothesizing by me, I don't actually know why it got delayed 4-5 days but that's the main variable I can think of. I'd look at those wave heights and say, no thanks, I'll take my expensive cargo up around them. Hopefully she's strapped down really well! I'd be interested to know the track it took but I don't want to pay a fee for info. I'd only use for a week and a half and that doesn't really buy me anything.
