Vessel: The Liberty. Who's aboard?

Rt66er · 05-07-2007, 08:54 AM

Discharged, too. Time to order wheels and tires...

thome22 · 05-07-2007, 08:10 PM

Anybody with news regarding status thru VPC?? None here. Just got a leather short shifter knob delivered!!

LIQUIX · 05-07-2007, 10:47 PM

Yeah, I would love to see if anyone has gone through yet.

RustySTL · 05-08-2007, 12:53 PM

Talked to my dealer today. He said that mine is scheduled to ship from the VPC on 5/12 and arrive at the dealer, here in St. Louis, on 5/14. It could possibly be sooner, but he will check again tomorrow to see.

RustySTL, where did your car get discharged? NY? My SA doesn't have a clue about the status of my car. Maybe I'll contact him again to see if he's heard anything. According to the BMW OC page, my car is still at the VPC...

Mine was discharged in Charleston, SC. The BMW OC still says enroute, but I know it's been discharged according the shipping company's website. My dealer could just be making up a date, but he said it was due to ship on 5/12 and arrive for dealer inventory on 5/14.

OC for says "En Route" and 1-800 says "Waiting at dock for transport".

However, CA says was released from VPC to carrier this morning at 9 am and should arrive in Florida by tomorrow.

nj335i · 05-08-2007, 03:49 PM

It's been over a month since I dropped the car off from my ED. I'm going through 335 withdrawl

I emailed my SA - I'll let you guys know what he comes back with. If anything, I would think that my car would be one of the first to be delivered since I'm so close to the port!

rweint · 05-08-2007, 05:09 PM

my ca told me may 15th! I'll have and update tomorrow when he's back from vacation.

Wow. Were you on the Liberty?? I hope mine is that quick. I have to hammer my CA for info. I feel like I call to much!!!!! Probably Next Tue I would guess.

flcar · 05-08-2007, 09:30 PM

Yes I was on Liberty -- am in South Florida.

Rt66er · 05-09-2007, 08:51 AM

My CA told me yesterday afternoon that my car is scheduled to arrive at the dealership on May 15th. So I should be able to take delivery on the 16th or 17th.

nj335i · 05-09-2007, 09:25 AM

My dealer hasn't given me too much info, but he did say that our cars are in need of a software update. This is why there is a delay... Not sure if it's something he just made up though.

zmeister · 05-09-2007, 09:39 AM

My 335i was on the liberty and off-loaded on 5/6 per WW website. Now when I call BMWNA on my status I get the message "at port awaiting a shipping vessel." Anyone else get the same? I hope they're not sending her back b/c the wait is killing me.

I'm in the same situation. I called BMWNA and I also got the "at port awaiting a shipping vessel." I talked to my CA and he said the car was unloaded at Charleston, SC.

LIQUIX · 05-09-2007, 05:08 PM

My CA just called and said car will be ready tomorrow!! But I cant pick it up until Saturday. So looks like our cars flew through the VPC

Congrats!! Jealous!! If I could get my CA to just call!!

LIQUIX · 05-09-2007, 10:19 PM

Means that they didn't get damaged during shipping, which i'm happy about.

thome22 · 05-10-2007, 07:02 AM

OC says "at our preparation center." I hope it's behind actually!! Getting close!!!!!! :rocks:
