Pretty accurate estimation by BMW. Estimated at port tomorrow, and ship's due in tonight @11pm!
Then VDC processing, trucked to PA dealer, and final shipping to FL. The end is in sight.... |

That's great. My status is still showing at the port. Two WW ships left last week and I was hoping to have my car on one of those. I've read that there can be a delay between the time it's loaded on a ship to it being shown as in transit on the website. But, if it missed those the next WW ship doesn't pick up until April 6 with delivery in New York on April 23rd. My current Volvo lease ends on April 28 so I was hoping to turn it in and pick up the new car on the same day. That doesn't seem likely at this point.

I think it's the last couple of steps, getting that through VPC and waiting for a truck that seems to take the longest. Sounds like it's just about perfect for matching up with your lease end too!

I feel your excitement. As a side note, where I live in New Jersey is close to the Newark Port. I have a client that unloads all cars for BMW and gets them ready for the delivery trucks. In fact, when driving on the Turnpike extension you can see all of the cars lined up - it's a cool thing to see! Enjoy your ride!

Had the same issue. I had to ask when my car would arrive. At least I got it as soon as I could. It doesn't take long to arrive. Only about 2 days max. The thing is they have to keep it at the dealership for inspections and things like that.
