As far as I found using google, the pending rail strike is CP. I thought BMW used CN.

Most information I have been able to unearth after calling the US 1-800 line is that my car is "in transit". I imagine this is pretty general? I checked a few VIN's numerically after mine and they are at "port awaiting". Is it safe to assume my car is ahead of later VIN's so "in transit" may mean on a boat?

AFAIK, "in transit" means on a ship or possibly also on a train. In your case, probably the former.

Hello, could you help me check the status of my M340i? My car has arrived in Halifax in March 13 as sale told to me, but there was no update since then. I am not sure where the car is. My car's VIN is WBA5U9C0XNFM63890.
Thank you!
Best,

Which brings me to another curious finding: using another VIN decoder which shows cars that are not completed yet but have a VIN assigned (for example http://www.bmwvin.com/ ), it seems the VINs are sequential until you get to V786800, which brings you to a non-M2 (218i) that has already been produced in March...and then after that the closest M2 I was able to find was V886666 (although I haven't tried all the numbers in between)...I thought they would all M2 VINs would be sequential but I guess not...

...I know I have way too much time on my hands...

Just received her last week Friday and she is getting wrapped by PPF and ceramic coating at this moment.

Hang in there and you will be thinking that all the wait and pain worth when you see yours ready to be driven by your hands.
