That's a good way to do it. Additionally what I did was I went to the parent company of the ship I'm on and tracked the ship that way. Gives you the entire route with ETA for each port call. A good tool to use in conjunction with the vessel finder.

Week 17, still waiting for a ship!

The BMW Genius confirmed today that I'm still waiting for a ship; my M2 reached the port on 5/1? Has anyone else from week 17 heard different?
THANKS

Seems odd as I see build weeks later than yours already on the shipping site.

I searched WBS1% in the cargo field.

Well known, we are checking the shipping companies sites with the VIN. Some more were loaded a couple hours ago, but it is 10pm there now. Not sure they load overnight, so hopefully it is loaded tomorrow!

I think your VIN is showing up now. Scheduled to get to you by July 2.

Not sure if you guys already know this, but for those of you who are on a Wallenius Wilhelmsen ship, you can use your complete Vin number to track the progress of your car after it has been offloaded at port. You can use the track and trace feature on www.2wglobal.com.

Hope my M2 didn't fall off the train on way to port!

My LBB, MT, EP, CarPlay M2 was built on 4/26 and for 3 weeks BMW Genius has said it's been at the port since 5/1 waiting for a ship. This morning they tell me it arrived at the port today! Genius reports never having seen this before and they have no explanation? They don't know where it's been for the last 3 weeks.
Has anyone else had this issue?
THANKS

Picked up my Week 17 car up at the dealer on Tuesday night. Great car. No option, 6-speed manual car.

They also honored the price we agreed on, which was MSRP as of the date I ordered it (Feb 25), despite MSRP going up $800 since then. The guys at BMW of Asheville are awesome, especially my salesman Troy Willoughby! He texted me whenever the next step in the production process occurred or the ship moved. He was better than the Genius line, which I only called twice. Hats off to those guys!!!!

Nice, you're the first of the week 17's on here. Mine is still at VPC scheduled for release today. Hoping to pick up tomorrow or Saturday - just in time for the long weekend.

Looking at pictures of that car will never get old no matter how many times I've seen it. Sweet machine!

What was the processing time from port drop off to dealer?

Received at VPC at 12:00am Friday. Text from Dealer Tuesday at 1pm. My car had no work orders on it per VPC so no damage, etc.

BTW, she is plenty loud with the stock exhaust too (And this is coming from a guy that has owned a 911SC for the last 16 years with a test pipe and gutted muffler.
