All aboard Topeka! - BMW 3-Series Forum (F30 / F32)

Anyone else on Topeka with me? Looks like the boat is set to arrive at the port in California around November 15. This is the most trying, and painful experience I have ever encountered so far!

I am also onboard, hardest thing about the European Delivery, leaving your baby at the port and waiting 8-10 weeks.

Can't wait for 11-15. So close.

Yep, my 335xi is on the Topeka as well. I'm told to expect it in Utah around Thanksgiving. One more thing to be thankful for, I suppose.

How were you guys able to confirm that your car actually made it on to the ship? My dealer still doesn't have a single piece of information, even though my car was dropped off at the drop of location on October 9! I am relying on the drop off location's information that they gave me, but nothing from an official source...pretty scary!

Go here http://www.2wglobal.com/www/WEP/index.jsp
Select track and trace from the drop down menu to the right.
Under cargo id type in you VIN number.
It will confirm you are on the boat, and when it is expected to make Port. Currently 11/15/2012!

Does anyone know what the "Status" notes mean on the left side? Has the car cleared customs already?
