Question typical wait?

After an amazing ED trip, I just dropped off my car on July 11th in Zurich. Now the wait is the killer...

Right now my car is awaiting transport. Can anyone tell me how long does it take (or it took for your car) to get on a ship and how long after that till it arrives here? I'm in northern california.

Thanks.

P.S. how was ur trip?

It took me about a week to get on a ship. Then another 3.5 weeks on before it arrived at Port Hueneme. Another week 'til redelivery. All in all about 6 weeks.

At Harms in Munich on 6/25. Arrived in NJ 7/17. Now for the week wait at customs, then VPC, then delivery -- probably more like 8 weeks. My CA said BMW NA Euro Delivery desk is warning 2-3 week Custom holds which seems consistent with a number of member's recent experiences.
