I hope he is right as well. From what I heard it usually takes a couples of days for the car to be processed at the VPC once it gets unloaded from the boat.

Just insurance and a blank check

haha yes i am! are you near there? my CA is actually off for the next few days. I called in yesterday to double check if it really is going to be there since it only arrives at the port on the 15th. the salesman that picked up told me it usually takes 7-10 days after it hits the port. so now im confused haha. but i dont see why my CA would call me out of the blue and tell me to be ready to pick up the car on the 16th. I'll keep you guys updated.

actually i used to live right down the street from the new location on atlantic! i've seen a lot of good recos for new century on this and other boards, so u must of gotten a good deal. anyhow, im in the southbay/westside now.

yea i was a bit surprised when you posted u could pick it up on the 16th (thanks for getting us excited btw )

but i ve also read it takes 7-10-14 days.

...so the wait continues...

My 335 is also on the same ship, hopefully it gets loaded on a Matson vessel shortly and sail to Hawaii soon. Did you purchase from BMW of Honolulu? What is your estimated date of pick up?

Aloha,

Imua

TURANDOT Docked

Hi Guys,
I am on Carmen but following your ship to see how long it takes to get your cars off. I have an AISLive account and their current graphic is below. Your ship is docked at Port Hueneme. Last reported at PH at 1:43pm PST today.

Thank you so much Fragadellic!! You made my day. Your baby is almost here as well. Ill update you on when my car arrives to the dealer. Going to call my CA on thursday to see if he has any info on when it will be arriving to the dealership. Im guessing 3- 4 days for it to be processed at VPC. Im only 5 hours north of Port Hueneme.

My CA is still on vacation till tomorrow but i did get a hold of a sales manager to find the status of the car; the sales manager said it should be ready on saturday but worst case scenario it'll be ready on monday.

Hey guys I wasn't completely sure if my car was on this boat or not.

I narrowed it down to two boats the Turandot, and the Lyra Leader.

Lucky for me, my car was on the Turandot. I'll be picking it up this afternoon :rocks:

Now I need to put this excitement to rest and try and to force my self to sleep.
