My CA told me the wait should be anywhere from 7-9 weeks from the time he put the order in. The order went through to BMW on May 18th, my car is currently on a boat and scheduled to arrive at the Oxnard, california Vehicle prep center on July 6th. Less than a week at the prep center, and a few days on a car carrier from L.A. to Seattle area, so overall the wait will be less than 8 weeks.

AlbinoSnail is right...sharing the painful wait with others on the forums has been kinda fun. On Bimmerfest I found a more useful thread with a handful of people with cars on the same boat, and very useful ship tracking info...so check there too.

Also, the E92 owners manual is about 260 pages on PDF. I started reading that the other day...to familiarize myself with the ridiculous bulk of features my car has. I've noticed on here that people often ask questions about their car...and a frequent reply is: READ YOUR OWNERS MANUAL!

Congrats on the car!

My car has been "waiting for a shipping vessel since 6/17. ugh...the wait is killing me....I feel your pain.

Congrats on the new ride.

not trying to get your hopes up, but a boat left for NYC on sat. - i'm on it as per my CA - 800# and OC still says waiting for a vessel. Being your on the east coast you must be on as well - I ordered 5/29 too.

e mail or call your CA!!!

mojo_dan · 06-22-2009, 10:43 PM

Definitely going to blast him a note tomorrow.

I have my VIN - does anyone know how to see if it's on a boat? (I know...the rational, patient person would just wait until tomorrow...)
