What does "CUSTOMS RELEASE NEW YORK, NY 09-03-2011 00:00:00" mean? Customs now has it? It then enters a black box where we can't track how long before customs releases it? Mind you, I did European Delivery so my custom clearance will probably be a while. When and how can I start tracking it again?

thx

Your dealer will be able to help you out.

Yes, the Euro-deliveries will take longer since they have to check the car for any foreign items/soil.

Cuffss · 03-11-2011, 01:31 PM

Just spoke to the business manager at Rallye. She says my car will be available for pick up Tuesday night. now im excited. Hoping the best for you guys as well.

Reprod we have almost the exact same car lol

I hope they don't get mine mixed up with yours haha... I'm hoping for a Wednesday delivery since that is when the new car will be activated on my insurance policy.

My SA was out today so I will call her tomorrow to make sure they don't put that front plate on my car!!!

I wouldn't pickup at night, you cant do a good walk around for scratches etc...just IMO

benzboy429 · 03-11-2011, 08:38 PM

Do you guys just not have them install the front plate bracket..etc? and still register in NY?

benzboy429 · 03-11-2011, 08:45 PM

By the way guys just kidding about the photo, I edited it. Mine shows the VPC as well

Cuffss · 03-11-2011, 09:27 PM

you can just call them and tell them to not install the front plate bracket. It's not they're problem if you get a ticket for not having one

yeah the tracking system needs to be more up to date. My CA told me earlier that my car just arrived at Rallye and has to wait till tuesday to get the title for me to pick it up. 2 business days. boo. i should have been able to pick it up sunday

benzboy429 · 03-11-2011, 09:43 PM

I think I rather have a plate and not worry. I tint my windows 20% so they'll be banging me for the front plate and tints. no thanks

benzboy429 · 03-11-2011, 09:45 PM

I'm regretting not getting a 335 now LOL...I should have just got it

netjack · 03-12-2011, 06:14 AM

this is what I get for doing ED:

netjack · 03-12-2011, 06:15 AM

is it strange that all of us are in the NYC metro area?? pure coincidence?

benzboy429 · 03-13-2011, 12:54 AM

for real, mine says at my bmw center

netjack · 03-13-2011, 07:45 AM

Woot. It's at the prep center! Does that mean it has cleared customs and only a couple days away from my dealer??

Cuffss · 03-13-2011, 09:45 AM

My car arrived at the New York port on 3/9 and arrived at Rallye 3/11. Seriously at the prep center for 2 days. Now i have to wait till tuesday for them to receive the title for me to take delivery.

The website is a good day or two behind whats actually happening with your car btw netjack. Call your CA and ask them if they got your car yet.

netjack · 03-13-2011, 09:55 AM

i wish I could combine posts but can't since I posted this on the M3 side:

what seems strange to me is that I picked up the car on 2/12, it left on ship on 2/23 and it's already at the performance center by 3/12?? What happened to that lengthy customs clearance process? Does that happen before or at the perf center?

Wonder if the fact that I picked up the car at Welt and dropped it off for shipping the same day had anything to do with - probably not :/
