I can't wait for the Patriot to get into port in NJ. I'm really hoping a week from today I'll be out driving.

Anyone have any idea of how long it takes to clear customs ???? as tech my car will be off the boat by the 16th ... but then its got to go throught customs and then be transported to Chicago where Irv is since thats the dealer I purchased it from.

I know everyone will be busy playing with their new toy in the next few days;however, if you get a chance post as to when you finally pick it up after it is unloaded from the Patriot it might just add to the anxiety and excitement for everyone else waiting.

Anyone on this boat waiting for European Delivery, Re-delivery?

extmtnbkr · 10-15-2007, 09:55 PM

Mine was discharged at 7pm tonight. My dealer told me its usually 48 hours from loading on the truck until its at the dealer and ready for me to drive home. He told me he should have a better idea of the timing for me on Wednesday.

2manycars1 · 10-15-2007, 10:04 PM

I have had my 335 convertible for a week and a 1/2 now. Still fun to watch the excitement as others cars come in. If your car was only discharged today, I would expect it to be to your dealer by next Monday or Tuesday. I understand sometimes they run faster, but the processing center took six days and then another day to get ot my NJ dealer.

Good luck, I hope it gets to you much faster.

VVA330 · 10-16-2007, 08:39 AM

My CA just called and said I should be getting my car this coming weekend if everything goes smoothly. I think anyone on this boat and been posting on this thread should include a picture of their new toy once it is recieved. I certainly will do so if i can find my camera.

who is your dealer? Mine is passport. If that is the case and if we pick them up at the same time can my baby hold your baby hand out the gate?

How can you tell yours was discharged ????

I e-mailed Irv yesterday and he said that it was 2 to 2 1/2 weeks from date of port till it would be ready to go at Motor Werks .... I am so excited I cant stand waiting any longer!

the shippers website (WW)...you can track it via the auto cargo. Mine was discharged yesterday as well. Keep in mind that the time displayed there is in UTC, not your local time....for east coasters that is 4 hours ahead of your time.

Nice mine was discharged yesterday too .... Does that mean it cleared customs and everything?

Also how long from discharge till the transport usually picks it up ??
