Vessel: INTEGRITY - Departing Bremerhaven 11/26/07 (Voyage: EB748-ITG)

MorpheIS · 12-10-2007, 07:05 PM

Hey guys, my CA just called and I took delivery of my wonderful new Monaco Blue 335i Coupe.

Within the last 2 minutes, I had her detailed, outfitted with the aero kit, 20 inch wheels, installed PROcede V2 and managed to put 200 miles on her. What do you think?

(Sorry guys... just practicing this inevitable post!)

I've actually spent over 3K-4K in mods and the car isn't even here yet.

Go get her!

I've spent some as well, but not quite that much!

You have no idea how tempted I am to head down to the docks! I suggested it to my wife just now. It's the first time she's ever called me a freak.

Consider yourself lucky - mine still has a few days to get to SC and then transfered to my dealer in So. Fla!

on the other hand... it's getting closer and closer

Looks great morph

Looks like our celebration comes too early. She's didn't dock, still on approach. :sad0147:

fucema · 12-11-2007, 08:15 AM

Booooo!

slant83 · 12-11-2007, 09:06 AM

WTF!

If that is the true last position, it is still 9 hrs old (UTC time now is 15:06) maybe she's real close and is only one day behind

raleedy · 12-11-2007, 09:24 AM

Five o'clock today. PM. EST.

Our cars probably won't make VDC till Friday at the earliest. Ugh.

If we dock at 5pm EST tonight, cargo discharge on Wed, I'd expect to see the car at the VPC late Wed or early Thu. The VPC is extremely close to port. It also appears that cars have been getting through VPC between 2-3 days this time of year.

This is, of course, all wishful speculation.

Unless customs takes its time or your car gets randomly picked for a deeper inspection

slant83 · 12-11-2007, 02:55 PM

a car colonoscopy would sure slow things down!

Ahh.. that's right. Your car is ED. Hopefully, you didn't leave your stash of Absinthe and Cubans on the glovebox?
