Anybody on the MAERSK WAVE

gdnyc · 03-02-2006, 01:15 PM

I was hoping somebody with access to AIS was going to post a pic. Thanks to all that have contributed.
Looks like she should be docking hopefully late afternoon.
How long does it take at the VPC before it gets loaded on a truck to the dealers? As long as there are no injuries..
From my understanding, I thought the dealer did all the prep work.

Update, THERE'S MOVEMENT FROM MW!!!!!! She is almost there hopefully these purple lines are some sort of wind tunnel that will speed the boat up hahaha

Josh, what year A4 do you have. I actually just sold mine. It was a 99.5 1.8T Quattro. That car was so much fun.

Josh49 · 03-02-2006, 03:28 PM

2000 A4 1.8T Quattro. The car is incredibly fun to drive.. We basically have the same audi's..

The only difference is that you have drive by wire and the cd/cassette/radio.

bsjd00 · 03-02-2006, 05:57 PM

See my baby in my signature.

Dealer installed options are the alarm, wheel locks, and floor mats.

bsjd00 · 03-02-2006, 05:58 PM

By the way, I thought I had read somewhere that AIS is delayed by at leat one hour, especially around NY. So, our boat may already be docked!

LakersFan · 03-02-2006, 06:35 PM

She has docked!! it's 6:30 and ais has her docked FINALLY!!!! Ill post pics later

Josh49 · 03-03-2006, 08:32 AM

WW's site shows NY port arrived and departure in red, so it looks like our baby's our off of the MW and at the VPC!!!

jmatero · 03-03-2006, 08:40 AM

The Maersk Wave has come and gone..... it sailed off early this morning..... The Cars have arrived..............

Josh49 · 03-03-2006, 08:43 AM

Anyone get a call from their dealer yet with a rough ETA of when delivery will be?? Thanks, Josh

gdnyc · 03-03-2006, 09:08 AM

Nothing yet for me. He doesn't get in until noon today...Anxiously awaiting phone call..

Josh49 · 03-06-2006, 01:54 PM

Status:

Talked to dealer. At final point of VPC today, going to be on a truck tomorrow, and hopefully at dealer wednesday. Paperwork usually comes in a day or two after car (which sucks, cause this might hold it up). Day or two for PDI, installation of toys.

I would love to get the car Friday, Saturday, but don't know how likely it is. It's hard because I want the car so bad but I'm getting a lot of stuff installed (clear bra I know takes a long time by itself, maybe 5 hours) and I don't want them rushing. I told the dealer if the techs need time give it to them, I want everything done right. I've waited this long another day day or two to make sure everything is done right is no problem. But I really want the car ASAP!!!

So close, yet so far away!!

Whats the status of everyone elses??
Josh

gdnyc · 03-06-2006, 02:04 PM

I paid a visit to my dealer on Sat to finalize the paperwork. He said my car got to VPC on Friday night. But the ship unloaded on Thurs night??

Anyway, he said it should be 3-4 days before it gets to them. I am going to have them install the tint on the windows. I am hoping to have the car by Saturday. A big hope!

LakersFan · 03-06-2006, 02:22 PM

I haven't heard anything from my dealer yet, planing on paying a visit probably tommorow, I don't have anything on my 325 that needs to be installed so hopefully they'll be able to get it ready for me by friday

hopefully

Josh49 · 03-06-2006, 03:31 PM

Man,with the weather this weekend, I would love to get the car Saturday. Go for a nice drive up the coast...

Fingers crossed,
Josh

gdnyc · 03-06-2006, 03:40 PM
