997CABOVA · 02-25-2011, 07:34 AM

i just called the 800 number and says my car is at the port waiting for a ship is the 800 number behind on shipping info??...my SA is out for awhile on leave, do you guys think the 800 number service reps could get me the VIN so I can check the shipping website??

benzboy429 · 02-25-2011, 12:29 PM

Yes the 800 number is definitely behind you can give it a shot and ask them for the VIN. But my suggestion would be to call the dealership and ask for the inventory or sales manager and get the VIN from them.

benzboy429 · 02-27-2011, 11:15 AM

OK she's in ZEEBRUGGE next stop SOUTHHAMPTON... unfortunately its not the southhampton in LI

benzboy429 · 02-28-2011, 05:17 PM

on her way to HALIFAX!

Cuffss · 02-28-2011, 08:06 PM

nice

reprod · 03-01-2011, 07:57 PM

Thought my ship was coming in later this month but it turns out I am on Faust too...

Also going to Rallye... 2011 335ix Coupe m-sport

I might just see you at the dealership Cuffss

benzboy429 · 03-01-2011, 09:18 PM

That's great news!! I feel left out maybe I can have Rallye take my car and I'll pick it up too lol

Cuffss · 03-01-2011, 10:48 PM

lol no doubt. yeah you definitely need to pick your car up at Rallye benzboy

benzboy429 · 03-01-2011, 10:57 PM

Why? No disrespect but why the hell would you have the dealer tint. They have to be raping you on price. There are plenty of great places that tint on the island.

Cuffss · 03-01-2011, 11:00 PM

yeah i know there are, i have always had my windows tinted in external sources. its pretty much double the price of anywhere else to have it done at the dealer. This is my first Bimmer so i leased it, im not 100% sure if im going to just buy it out, so i figured id get the tints done at the dealer to not risk the chance of them trying to say tints werent allowed. But if i do plan to buy it out, i will definitely be modding it

reprod · 03-02-2011, 08:26 AM

My first mod... suspension... I may get some tint done but not really sure at this point. Huper Optik is the only kind of tint I have gotten done so far though.

997CABOVA · 03-03-2011, 04:47 PM

wellllllll i didnt make the FAUST...i just put my VIN into the WWL website and still nothing and believe the AIDA left there today. You put the whole VIN in Cargo ID right??? How long does it take to register into the website if the boat just left?? Appreciate it guys

benzboy429 · 03-03-2011, 04:57 PM

mine took about a day to come up on WWL's website, and then about another day for the bmw na 800 number to say its en route, and even longer for bmwusa.com to show it en route. Just give it till late tonight or tomorrow.

997CABOVA · 03-03-2011, 05:01 PM

hahaha thanks Benz...the BMW website still has my car on order lolll the 800 is far better at least in that regard

Cuffss · 03-03-2011, 06:50 PM

so i guess it's a good possibility we get our cars in 2 weeks right?

benzboy429 · 03-03-2011, 07:01 PM

I been bothering my CA all day yesterday and today. (been off work). She said like the website it will reach the VDC on the 9th. She said it can take 4-7 days for the dealership to receive the car from the 9th. So that puts us somewhere (worst case) around the 16th...LESS THAN 2 WEEKS AWAY.

Unless something has happened to the car during transport which will require a longer time at the VDC. If the car is more than 3% damaged the VDC must notify the dealer, if it is less the dealer won't know, but if the car is damaged beyond 3% of its value who knows if the dealer will even tell you.

Cuffss · 03-03-2011, 09:19 PM

hoping for the best man. Can't wait to drive this thing already

benzboy429 · 03-03-2011, 11:02 PM

me too I think about this anticipation of this car everyday, I feel like a stupid lunatic

reprod · 03-04-2011, 10:42 AM

I'll keep enjoying my current 3er in the meantime. It's looks like I will have 2 335s for a week until I can return this one.

Cuffss · 03-04-2011, 12:51 PM

I've been driving my 2002 Z28 Camaro for the past 9 years. The 335 will be a nice change for me i think.
