Who's still waiting at the port to get onto a ship?

Just trying to gauge when ours will be on a ship! I know a couple left the port to the states last week.

My production was done 8/1 and I'm waiting for my car to come to the SE states. How about you?

Mine was done 8/3 and says still at port. Apparently you won't get any update until about 2 days after it leaves port. Theres a W&W ship going out today (Porgy) that hits up the east coast ports last week of august. We might be on that one.

Yes, or your CA should be able to tell you. You just want the status code. Google will tell you what the BMW production status codes mean.

Yeah, I know those. Thanks. Wasn't sure if there was some way through calling the regular 800 number. My CA is kind of slow on info so I try not to go through that channel :/

My car got delayed a couple of days and completed production yesterday. So it's on it's way to port but I doubt I'm making the ship that's leaving today. Next W&W is on the 16th for early September East Coast ports. I guess I should make that one.

It's interesting that the ship scheduled for departure today is going to take 20 days but the ship scheduled for the 16th, only 16 days to Charleston which is, I'm guessing, where performance center deliveries go. Looks like less ports hit on the way down.

My car has been sitting at the port since 8/3 and I have also been patiently waiting for a vessel assignment. Hopefully I get one by the end of the week.

You may want to TALK with a BMW Genius. I was at the same status and just spoke with someone.

I'm on the Michigan Highway arriving in Galveston on 9/1!
