The Dionsys Leader has been canceled, which is annoying, so there goes the June 4th vessel option. So that means the Pleiades Leader on the 8th, with stops in Charleston on the 21st and Port Hueneme July 6th.

How do you find the schedule of boats? I've looked up the recent ones listed in this post, but none are going to Baltimore which is my port of entry. Just trying to guess when it may be on a ship.

East Coast will likely be W&W, so plug Bremerhaven and Baltimore into this and you should get them:

My M2C arrived at the port in Bremerhaven May 25. I ran the W&W schedule page and found Toreador departing for May 29 as the next departure for Baltimore. So the ship departed yesterday, Saturday, but my vehicle is still listed as "at the port." I understand you can also run the VIN on the W&W tracking page, but that too didn't show any signs the car was on this ship.

Question: should I just assume that it will take a couple of days before the system shows "in transit," or is it likely not on the ship but in a queue in Bremerhaven that will take more time to get onto a ship?

This sounds normal. It took my car a few days to update to "in transit" after it left Bremerhaven. And after it arrived in Brunswick, it went back to "at the port". Now I'm waiting for the "at the dealership" status to know it's arrived at the performance center. T-minus 3 weeks until delivery!

Call the Genius line or have your CA get you an update. Website updates are notoriously unreliable this late in the process.

That said, mine got onto a ship quickly and that info was updated online immediately, in mid-March. Perhaps you missed that latest ship. Hopefully you're on board.

And that is that, with the arrival at the port yesterday!
NYK on the 8th or WW on the 9th - so now with all that done and dusted the proper wait begins :-)

Unrelated, but neat story....I ordered an X5M 9 Jan 21 (or real close to it) and got it less than 3 weeks later. Different factory, but I thought that seemed really fast. In September 2017, it took 4 months got take delivery of our F33 when we ordered it.

X5 is built in South Carolina

That seems really early for a week 26. Has your production date been pulled forward? My week 23 M240 (same plant) just went to production begins on Friday and another member's week 22 went production begins last Monday. Rooting for you to have an earlier than anticipated delivery.

Mine did too! Happy days...

[M2C-NLUSA]

I legit think I may have the last M2C built. I’m still 112. Scheduled for week 25 production.

Heyyyy. Week 23 buddies! It’s my first BMW and I’m so excited!

[Anonymoose]

Not bragging by any means but I want to pass along my time line.

I secured my allocation May 29th and the car was 112 status. Yesterday, I was assigned a vin and today it shows production begins (stage 3)

I didn't ask the first go around but I called and my salesman said estimated production week is June 14th

Or as the locals call it, the "Bubba Makes Wheels" plant.

Agreed - but that was the week I was given by the dealer when I ordered. He did say that cars that go from dealer allocated to "sold" are often pulled forward in the queue

Nice! Likely being built within the last 7 days of the month yours should really get designated MY 2021.5 :-)
