June Deliveries? Lets get the party started!

lennyk1313 · 06-02-2008, 08:13 PM

Well I think this is a good time to introduce myself! This is my first post, but I have been reading the forum for a while now. I have placed my order and patiently waiting for my BMW to arrive

. Here is what I got:

335i Sedan
Jet Black
Black Leather
Burl Wood
AT
Sport Package
Heated Seats

I am coming off my 06 STI and I am sure I will miss it but this is the next best thing

. The car has been great and I had lots of fun with it and many upgrades, but I am getting married so this was the best solution/compromise I could think of (and she agreed)

.

Now it’s just a waiting game!

Tha car has been in port since 29th and I am really hoping its on the Patriot Ship, but no updates yet!

Grrr can't wait

Anyone in west coast and is expecting delivery in June?

I'm located in Vancouver and has not yet know when will be the actually delivery yet.

The last info i got from my dealership is that the car arrived East coast on May 27th.

How long will this whole transit thing take until it actually gets to Vancouver? or west coast~

Mine arrived in Halifax May 21 and gets to Vancouver June 9. I'm hoping it will be available June 14. The best way to keep track of things is to email your sales guy. Enjoy the car.

lennyk1313 · 06-03-2008, 12:49 PM

Well got a call from my CA today and he confirmed that my car is on Patriot

The internet, phone and vessel tracking still do not show the updated info yet though.

Man, your post just made my day/week/month/year! - I ordered a 335xi sedan - AW with terra interior loaded on 4/28/08. Production was complete on 5/21/08. The car has been at the port of exit awaiting a shipping vessel since 5/29/08.

Phone, internet, etc. still say the car is awaiting a shipping vessel. I hope my car is on the Patriot boat too. I just left a message with my SA to confirm - too bad today is his day off.

I'm so freaking excited to get this car.

LesLazz · 06-03-2008, 01:06 PM

Matt,

Call your CA, if your on the Patriot, he will know. They have close to up-to-the-minute info (once it is on the ship, that is!).

Good Luck

lennyk1313 · 06-03-2008, 01:13 PM

Same here. My car was at the port on the 5/29, so I would think its on the same ship!

Mech_Man · 06-03-2008, 01:44 PM

Hi, I'm new to the forum too.

I got tossed into the deep end, as my 328is was rear ended and totaled.
So I needed a car QUICK.

I had an awesome CA work his butt off, and he found me a Montego Blue/black 335i e92 already in transit. I decided to do the PDC bit and will go fetch it Thurs 26 June.

I'm really looking forward to that!!

After you login you can add/remove vehicles. There is a link for "Add/Remove" vehicles on the left hand side under 'MY ACCOUNT" and then under "LEARNING CENTER'

AJerman · 06-03-2008, 08:04 PM

Wow, they damn sure just updated the WW site recently.

yzerman1919 · 06-03-2008, 11:05 PM

Thanks. No info comes up yet though i am not on ship yet so perhaps that is why.I am at the port so i hope to get on the Mignon which leaves 6/5.Wish me luck. Anyone else at the port?

matt415 · 06-04-2008, 10:11 AM

I haven't heard from my SA yet, but BMW Owner's Circle by phone is now updated to "En Route". I must be on Patriot with an estimated arrival of 6/16 in NY.

LennyK1313 - did your SA give you a date when you should be able to pick the car up at the dealer? tentative or otherwise? THANKS (looks like I'm renting a car until the end of June since I just sold my 2002 Audi TT Roadster last night)

lennyk1313 · 06-04-2008, 10:59 AM

My Status has Changed to En Route as well! No, my CA has not told me anything regarding when I will be able to pickup my car, but based on what I have seen it all depends on how fast they will get off the boat and go through customs and checkup. I am hoping for pickup by the end of that week (before 6/21). Keeping my fingers crossed!

Refujeet · 06-04-2008, 01:48 PM

Mar car arrived in Halifax yesterday.

Now I have to wait for it to get a train to Toronto.

dmbigs · 06-04-2008, 03:55 PM

im on the patriot...AW 335i...dealer said to expect delivery between 19-23rd... my status just changed online and by phone today so to all of those in the same boat, your probably on the same boat...good luck to all

matt415 · 06-05-2008, 08:56 AM

Thanks for the info. My SA told me no later than June 26th for delivery. I hope he's right - my Mistu Lancer rental car is costing me $31/day and it is so lame...

I'm so with ya!
I'm driving a Pontiac G6 (rental, temp wheels after my 328 was totaled by a taxi).
It feels like I'm driving it by remote control. No feel for the road, handling, etc.

Mooreski · 06-06-2008, 09:17 AM

I feel your pain too. In the whole ordeal of my car getting 'repaired' then totaled I've had:

A Nissan Versa with 3 hubcaps (aka the fastest hamster powered car ever)
PT Cruiser (PT Bruiser)
Dodge Caliber (can't even put that one into words)
Mazda 6 (acutally, not that bad)
Rav 4 (upgrade since they didn't have a compact. Lucky since I needed to make some trips to Home Depot)

Now I'm in a dealer 328 xi since my baby is being held up at the VPC to get a bumper scratch fixed. Not sure what I'll do if I don't accept her when she shows up.

xraymd · 06-06-2008, 11:14 AM

Man, when are they going to get Monica to you? I've already got 200 miles and been in for a service appt.

Mooreski · 06-06-2008, 11:21 AM

Still waiting for word. I'm getting worried that it was more than a paint scratch. Doesn't seem like it should take two extra weeks just to fix a scratch!

At least I'm putting miles on their 328xi. And, we're getting 'severe' thunderstorms tonight. Go ahead, let it hail!

Good Luck __________________ If he doesn't buy that, tell him (in an assertive but borderline tears voice) "At least you could support me in this *one* thing. Please don't quell my excitement.
