Hoping this is the one that will carry my baby over the pond. Production ended 7/28 and still waiting to get on a boat..

ybbiz34 · 08-10-2012, 11:05 AM

My M-Sport 335i is at the port right now. Wonder what the chances are of her making it aboard.

swszolek · 08-10-2012, 11:21 AM

My M-Sport 335i was completed on Aug 7th and too hope makes this boat, if not there is boat leaving Monday as well (ASIAN VISION)

I'm in the same boat as you. Pun intended. BWWAAAAaHHHHHaahaha

gnosis8 · 08-11-2012, 02:39 PM

It's on the move! Leaving the Bremerhaven port now. Bon voyage, Topeka!

RonSwanson · 08-11-2012, 03:03 PM

my 328 M Sport was completed on 7/31 and has been "at the port awaiting shipping vessel" since then. Still is according to the 800 number.. REALLY hope it jumped on board and is sharing the cruise with you guys.

BMWf30: If I find out where my car is, it'll most likely be the same boat as yours and I'll let you know.

gnosis8 · 08-11-2012, 07:35 PM

Anyone know yet if they're definitely on this boat?

Ill do the same. We are only a few days apart. Assuming you are also doing PCD?

RonSwanson · 08-11-2012, 09:28 PM

Negative. Im not even sure what it is except that its some sort of tour/driving lesson in South Carolina with a free meal and a night's stay in a hotel. Is that it?

gnosis8 · 08-12-2012, 06:28 PM

Ahh rats, I just entered my VIN into the W&W Track & Trace query, and it gave me "No records found". Looks like I'm probably still sitting at port of exit. Gonna call my CA tomorrow to get it straight from the horse's mouth. Sorry to call you a horse, Colin.

If you guys haven't tried already, enter your full VIN into the "Cargo ID" box on the very right: https://att.2wglobal.com/gstattweb/o...ckSearchResult

If you only have the last 7 characters of your VIN, then go here to get the full VIN: http://bmwvin.com/

I don't think the tracking website was updated as there is no cars showing past Aug 2 which were there before Topeka even arraived. I hope tomorrow all gets updated and we all get the good news, if not Asian Vision is on its way and leaves on the 15th.

swszolek · 08-13-2012, 05:58 AM

I looks like the tracking page has been updated, I made the boat. Sweet....

Did you get your info by entering your full VIN into the Cargo ID box? I'm just hoping that either I'm not entering mine correctly, or it hasn't updated everyone's info yet.

Yes, that is all I had to do. Try putting only first 14 or 13 number of your vin with % sign and see.

Yea to sum it up that's pretty much it. I have never done drifting in a car before and I probably will never do it using my own car ever. So thats something nice to experience in a brand new M5. For me the exciting part will be the drive back in my new Bimmer.

Status Update: As of today its still sitting at port in BH. I see lots of ships leaving port last week and the next two weeks. The waits killin me!!

RonSwanson · 08-13-2012, 10:25 AM

Just checked that link and SUCCESS!

My car made the OBERON and i assume your ride is there too, bmwf30. I think our cars both get off in Port Hueneme, CA on Sep. 4th but yours will take a few day drive across the country and mine will take a few hours to get to the dealer. Or maybe since youre in PA, youll be on another ship destined for the east coast. Not positive how it works..

ETA for mine = Sep 4th.
