Now that's a good idea. I'll just stay buzzed for the next 3 days! Oh man is this wait hard. It's harder now knowing it is so close and seeing out other boat-mates getting their cars.

Yeah, I don't know how I waited 9 months for my kids. And that wait was pretty much with no sex!!

My CA just emailed me and said my delivery is now the 11th because of shipping delay but could be here sooner.

[drphil71]

i ordered 4/28 and the wait hasnt bothered me until now...its too closeeeee

I can't believe you said that. My wife is pregnant with our 2nd (due Sept 10th), so I'm a little "backed-up" if you know what i mean. Maybe that's contributing to my madness.

I'm thinking of just saying F**k it and going out this weekend to just by a Honda Accord so I don't have to wait anymore.

Please talk me out of it!

Hang in there Jim. I ordered on 4/17 and mine is just now on the train destined for the VPC! Looking like next Thursday for me.

I could not stand it last week, that's why I traded in my Audi and got the X3 loaner. The X3 is not bad, however I'm getting super tired of only being able to drag race soccer moms driving around in their Honda CRVs

Been there. Don't want to go back. I'm not sure that car's gonna help that problem though. It might take your mind off of it.

Sad thing is, after the baby comes you're both too tired to even consider it. I've got twins - talk about a drought!

We're probably scaring these single guys thinking about marriage.

Well she is. I could be on my death bed and still be ready to go!

Mine shows VPC too. It stinks how we can't track status at the VPC or the route to the dealership. It's great knowing exactly where your car is with the ship tracking system. Now I'm at the mercy of my CA (who is actually pretty cool but not hot a blonde with a clear bra either...damn... At least when I call my CA he can't consider it stalking. I think?)

I'm sure those here on this thread will keep others posted. The real excitement will be seeing pics of people's cars as they pick up and of course the Ultimate Excitment will be driving the cars!!!

It's getting close... I can almost feel the steering wheel, smell the leather, and scratch my head wondering how to use iDrive...

Y'know Stinger, I'll actually be more excited to see a picture of your car than actually getting mine.

Reason I say this is because according to the daily printout at the dealer, my car is still at the VPC. Which is awesome. I guess I'll set my sights for next weekend.

Ughhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

A co-worker of mine got her AW E93 today, and not only did her boat sail AFTER the Freedom (I don't know what boat it was, but I know it was one of the untrackable ones, so non-WW), it also arrived after ours in Charleston, but it processed faster. What the hell. She ordered a month earlier than me also, that may have to do with it??

Yeah, but you'll always have a newer car!

[HEY32G]

I would think our cars have got to be getting on the truck soon. Probably Monday, maybe Tuesday at the latest.

Hah, I don't mind that she got hers first, in fact I'm glad she did because she had to wait longer. Just confused on how the process works. The delay (obviously) must be due to July 4th... Thought we were going to get around that, but whatever, it happens.

By the way, I briefly checked out her paint and the dealership left minor traces of sticky residue on the chrome where the hard top is stored, and the white paint was FULL of swirls. They were very thin, and not deep into the paint, but in the blaring sunlight at the right angle made the swirls become fully exposed. Not exaggerating a bit... It pissed me off slightly, but she ordered from a different dealer than I did. I hope mine isn't half as bad.. ack!!! She had 86 miles on it when I was able to see it, so it was fresh from the dealership too.

And just for reference, my car was produced 2-3 weeks before hers..... So no, it's not newer, lol.. Hey there's another reason to support things not adding up.

[drphil71]

well maybe her's was processed before july 4th but employees at the VPC that just wanted to go relax for a day and ours were processed by employees who were fresh from a day off and ready to work hard. Monday cant come soon enough and i dont even feel like doing much this weekend anymore.

[gerbs]

Yeah this weekend is pretty much shot now. The dealer's daily order status chart probably quite accurate, so I won't be seeing her this weekend as I expected. Makes me kinda sad

[MestUpKid]

I just found out today that my car is expected to be at the dealer from SC next monday or tuesday the bad part is I can't take it right away because my right collar bone is broken and I ordered a manual But since mines going to be in New York from South Carolina that quick all you guys down south should be getting yours real soon since its a shorter trip.

Why didn't your car get dropped off in NY?

[jimbethesda]

My dealer just called....

My car has just be released to the trucking company (good)
But it's the weekend, so it won't leave until Monday (bad)
So, now he is estimating arrival on Wednesday (good & bad)

These last few days are going to be really really looooong.

[Bimmerforlife]

My dealer just told me today my car is on the way from SC to my dealers prep center and said it may in fact already be at their prep center either way he said Monday or Tues at the latest.

[dbtran]

My CA just called and said my car will be at the dealership Monday night!!!
