Do all West Coast cars go to San Diego?

The Cleaner · 03-05-2007, 03:52 PM

Man it seems it's a solid 4 weeks from the time the ship leaves to the time it gets to San Diego, do any West Coast cars go to NJ and get sent to the west? It's got to be faster.

Nope. Oxnard.

Faster is not the point. Cheaper is (a lot!). West Coast cars come in to Port Hueneme (next to Oxnard) and the VPC is a couple of miles away.

well acctualy last time i talked to the 800# they said it can even be 2 weeks to get to the west cost depending on the ship and the weather, but he told me an average of 3 weeks to get to the west coast.

Oh 3 weeks is not so bad, Most of the numbers I have seen are a lot longer than that.

My car is on the RYUJIN, which left Bremerhaven, Germany on 2/14. It's going through the Panama Canal as I type this. It's scheduled to arrive at Port Hueneme on 3/14. Then another week or two after that for VPC processing and transportation to the dealer (if all goes well!).

yeah you can bet that it will take at least 21 days to get to the West Coast, then add about 10 days to arrive atyour dealer / be ready for pick up, but that is being hopeful, all depends on how many are there and how long it takes to get through the process

Thanks people, I will be getting my car right about tax day it looks.

So BMW can render unto you at the same time you render unto Ceasar.

Next time,do an ED from a dealer further east,pickup 6 weeks after dropping off in Europe and drive it back to CA,that's the fun way to do it !
