Yes I know! The blue/white red photo is a stock photo from vesseltracker. However, the sat shot is the exact location of the ship on vesseltracker and google earth. There is some delay however. Realtime sat shots require a subscription fee. Check it out yourself!

But I'm going to guess that Google, as rich as they are, don't have a sat at their disposal.

See Liberty docked in the same position. This is delay feed from Google and vesseltracker. I agree though that the vessel pictured is probably an old image or "stock." The actual location is real though. She departs 4/16! Hope we are aboard.

So how can we tell if we got on the Liberty today?

[thome22]

Your CA is the best bet. I feel like I have to extract the info from mine - painful. Not very helpful. Wallenius does not show my car on the ship yet (you can track via VIN.) It appears the Liberty has sailed though according to 2W (2am 4/17 local time currently). Hopefully on board since the next ship is 7 days.

My car e90 328i has been in the body shop since Friday (04/13/07) and the live reps seem to have their systems down while the automated message keeps telling me its in the body shop. I wonder where she really is? I hope she gets n a vessel by next week and living in TX I have to wait an extra week or 2 than those in the East coast.

Yeah, the folks on the 800# have had their system down for most of the day. I just called an hour ago and it was still down.

328xi sedan ordered on April 14th and told I've taken a Status 111 (?) car that is slated for a Week 17 build!

Sparkling Graphite
Premium
(Black/Burl Walnut)
Sport
Cold Weather
Xenon
6FL

I'm hoping for a late-May/early-June delivery...am I being realistic?

[tadders]

Just called the automated system. Vehicle is in the paint shop, estimated completion date is April 20th! Still on track!

[Sledchaser]

Just called the 800 and got a "Car in production" reply. Estimated completion date is April 24th. Woo Hoo! I've been waiting since mid-March! :rocks:

[thome22]

My CA confirms my car is aboard the Liberty!! Estimated arrival 5/3 in SC. psyched! :rocks:

[Rt66er]

Don't think I made it aboard Liberty. My VIN doesn't show up and 1-800 number says "at port awaiting ship." Checked with my CA yesterday, but the system was down all day. Perhaps he'll say different today, but for now it looks like I'll be a week behind you...

The system is down. I still say odds are you are aboard. My VIN does not register yet either - delay. Call your CA today (pester like me!!!!!!!!!!).

Congrats.

Hopefully that means there is not a long wait at the port, and those of us finishing the 19th and 20th can get on the Courage on the 23rd. I know it will be close.

I seen people in these forums order their cars much earlier and they are still waiting for their cars to be scheduled for production...I can't understand why our cars made it to the production line sooooooooo quick...Can anyone explain this? Just curious thats all, I wish everybody was as lucky as we were as far as ordering the car and having it built 2 or 3 days later!!!!

It looks like our cars will be cousins!

[scottp999]

I am in the paint shop - supposed to be complete this thursday!

[LIQUIX]

I made it on the Liberty!

[mazzki]

I'm in the paint shop done on the 19th sweeeettt!!!

[Ryan@Motorwerks]

For you guys who have cars loaded on a ship- how long did you have to wait from the completion of production to being loaded on a ship???

[nj335i]

Liberty is set to dock in Newark, NJ on May 1st!! WOOHOO!!!!!

Hope so, but if not there are other ships right behind that one. Status today said the "vehicle is being transported to the port of exit" (4/17/07). Maybe they can drive it right onto the ship. Last on, first off!
