4. It was worth every freaking minute that it took to arrive, delay or otherwise. Hang in there, man.

What car are you coming from before the M2?

Thank you! Coming from 2006 e90 330i for 8 years and then an 8 month ownership of Infiniti Q50S. Had to have my BMW back ...

Anyone else? Is there a way to track the inventory on this vessel?

Congrats! You'll be cruisin' before me! Can't wait to see pics!

Car was delivered to the dealer yesterday and we have 5-7" of snow coming tonight and through tomorrow with more predicted for next week. So close....

Here's the latest update on Tirranna, looks like the vessel is closing in on arriving to the States, although ETA to West Coast port is still 3/25.

bartginger · 03-10-2017, 11:31 AM

Mine is still sitting at the port in Bremerhaven, where it has been since at least February 24.

Kothar · 03-11-2017, 02:14 PM

Just saw mine on Tosca arrives halifax Mar 14th...prob 2 weeks ship to dealer. looks like I'm getting it a month earlier than forecast.

Baltimore is getting hammered with the snow tonight and tomorrow. I was hoping for delivery by the end of the week but am thinking that is going to be pushed back now.

Thanks for asking! I just got off the phone with Genius and was informed that my M2 left on the ship Aniara on March 10 and is due at the port near Los Angeles on April 7! FINALLY it's moving! I'm so excited and happy; could not have been better news on this Monday morning!

Very happy to hear that. Best!

TheBatM2 · 03-16-2017, 02:34 PM

Anyone from Week 7 received their car yet? I'm at least 10-12 days away from dealership delivery since the boat just left Barcelona Port yesterday on it's way to New York. Expected Galveston ETA is still holding on the 25th of March.

bmw-st · 03-16-2017, 04:51 PM

I spoke with my CA earlier this morning, and he thinks the car should be available for pick up either in last week of March or first week of April. Vessel ETA (Tirranna) is still 3/25 to port, so I guess first week of April is definitely in play.

My car has been ready for delivery since Monday but I've pushed it off until March 27 to avoid driving while snow and salt is on the road here in New York

Are there any special request they provide when you delay the car for pick up? Do they store the car somewhere that no one can see so people don't harass the dealership about checking out the car or yet having the staff having joy rides in it?

mokrunka · 03-19-2017, 09:05 AM

I just saw that the Porgy is going through the Panama Canal today! Getting closer!
