I don't know I've never done it, but the guys in the Porsche forums say that's the way to do it for ED

And like anything else you get good at after you've done it a few times, the part you left out would be the loading of the vehicle from Port transportation to the dealer. I was actually able to track that 3 hour drive from exact time of deportation to dealer signing for cars and even print the invoice that dealer signs with all VIN numbers delivered.
They weren't to happy when I called them out on delivery times. lol. Now that's some sick shit, I have to admit.

Military / Diplomatic Sales
OP
When you order a U.S. Spec vehicle under Military / Diplomatic sales in Germany, you will be unable to do any tracking yourself. You have to rely on your sales reps. In my case that was Bavarian Motor Cars (Rhein BMW Wurzburg Germany)to provide tracking and even they did not have anywhere the detail of information you can get when your order a vehicle state side. Just sharing my experience. |

Funny how he said trained drivers drive the car off the ships your car is driven off the ship by longshoremen such as myself and we park it in the lot from there they go their separates way. But We have received no special training to drive the cars and we not only drive Bmws we drive every cars coming off or on the car ship

Great post here Bmwguy11! I wish I knew of this BMW Genius number. Now I'm expecting delivery at my dealer by 11/2...so my wait is coming to a close end.

ED cars occasionally have to run the US Dept of Agriculture Inspection gauntlet between US Customs and VDC receipt; ask me how I know this Stuck in Ag twice in 16 ED's... and it's the mother of all black holes.

Munich Drop-off
If you drop-off in Munich, you can email Loginout (drop-off-munich@loginout.de ) in about 10 days and they can tell you which ship your scheduled to be on.
Kline is my line and it's supposed to leave Bremerhaven on the 11 Nov and get to the states on the 26th...I hope. |
