My 335d is in the paint shop and is scheduled to be completed tomorrow. By the time it gets to the port at Bremerhaven, it will be March. The Tristin sails from Bremerhaven on March 11 bound for the west coast. Anyone else completing production and bound for the west coast?

Here is a shipping schedule:

My car is currently waiting at port as of today. I'm hoping it will be on the Don Quijote leaving on 2/26. Your car might be on this ship too.

Could be! My car will be completed tomorrow which gives it 3 days to get to the port and on the ship. I believe in miracles though I bet your car makes it on!

Cheers!

67R60,

My dad 528 finished production and made it on the Don Juan within 2 days earlier this month. There is a chance for you. Funny thing is we both ordered our car on the same day and his car will get here a month in advance of mine. Oh well, I will keep my fingers cross for you.

67R60,

I just noticed you are from the Seattle area too. Can I ask you what dealership you ordered your car from? We both got ours at the dealership in Fife.

Hey Red,

I ended up buying from Seattle BMW. BTW the Don Quijote is sitting at Bremerhaven:

I am a west coast delivery as well. My car is scheduled to finish production on 3/4. How exactly do you find out what ship it will be on? I see the threads on how to track the ship, etc. But how did you find out what ship? Thanks.

My car is scheduled to be completed on March 8th. Slim chance but maybe we'll be on the same boat. My car is also going to Seattle via BMW of Bellevue.

Completion to port took 3 days for you then, right? If I don't make it on your ship I'll just miss it. Keeping my fingers crossed.

Actually, it was completed on 2/23 and got to the port 2/25. It may have made the Don Quijote that left Bremerhaven port yesterday. My bet is both our BMW's will be on the Tristan or some other unpublished ship. I will post more once I know what ship.

Cheers TonyUF,

Hoping I make it onto this ship. My production finished today.

My 335d is still at the port waiting a vessel. My bet is the Tristan that is now departing Bremerhaven on 3/12. You may make it on the Tristan, but odds are you will make the next one which is the Elektra departing just 4 days later on 3/16. Let's see what happens

[TonyUF]

Just got word my car is at port! Looks like there is a good chance we'll be on the same boat!

[67R60]

Hey Tony,

I have not checked the status of my 335d for a while (over a week). I was in training class all last week and just busy. I called the 800 number and expected the "vehicle at port waiting a vessel". Instead I heard "vehicle is in transit"...what? I emailed my CA at BMW of Seattle and asked him what ship am I on. He responded quickly and told me "Grand Legacy".

My 335d is already on a ship and in the Celtic sea. My guess it will be at Port Hueneme in early April. My bet you will make the Tristan now set to sail on the 12th. Keep me posted!

[TonyUF]

Nice!! Looks like there are most ships then we thought originally. Tell me how long it took to get to here. :-)

I'm hoping to land the Elektra before it takes off on 3/16, but I'm not sure which shipping line they use to get the car from Germany to Oxnard. My car was built in South Africa, so I don't know if the process is a bit different if the car originated in Rosslyn, compared to Germany. I honestly don't even know if it's made its way to Germany yet. I'd think so, since it shipped from Durban on the 21st of February, but I'm not sure. I'm waiting for a response from the dealership.

If my car was on the Elektra, would my VIN return any hits at this point if I entered it in the "Track & Trace" menu on WWL's website? (It isn't right now).

[VK11]

yes i made it on!

[eluder]

Not sure if this thread is the same, but I'm on the Tristan:
