My LBB finished 18th of Aug waiting on ship

Anyone else in this situation??? My LBB is going to Arizona. Now I am trying to find out what ship it may be on if others are also going west like mine, any info on how to track what ship it gets on would be greatly appreciated.

This is the website of the company that does the shipping. The port it will leave from is Bremerhaven and it will go to Port Hueneme in California then on to a truck. Ships leave every couple of weeks. Call BMW customer care at 800-831-1117 and they will give you the information on which ship it goes on so you can track it.

Don't waste your time figuring it out. Once its loaded, The BME Genius can tell you. I wasted a good couple of hours trying to figure it out and BMW told me from in about 30 seconds.

If it doesn't get on a WW ship its most like Kline. You can check the schedules for both on their websites. They tend to use each ship for specific destinations aka all cars delivered to NE will go via one ship, SE will get another ship, West coast another, etc....You won't see all car destination locations on the same ship even though it might stop at each port.

Mine arrived to port on 08/16 with no shipment date yet. I think because our vehicles are coming to the west coast it takes a little longer since less ships come this way.

From what I can tell the ships to the west coast do their rounds at two week intervals. The specialist I spoke with said sometimes they have so many cars waiting in port it can take some time to get on the boat. She said some get on the boat right away others take weeks. My car gets built Labor Day week so I am going to be in the same boat or lack thereof soon.

If you insert your VIN in the Cargo ID field at the link below, it will tell you if your car is on a WWL ship, the line that generally sails to the USA West Coast ports. If you don't have your VIN yet, you can get it from BMW USA (1-877-831-1117) by giving them your production number.
