Ocean Transport: Destination Boston

Jack Tors · 02-14-2008, 11:56 AM

I have a 335xi Coupe that has been in Bremerahven for several days awaiting a ship; I live in Boston, and would like to know if cars for the Northeast are shipped from Bremerhaven to New York, or are they shipped elsewhere?

I have followed the various threads on this site, and I am trying to find out when my car will be shipped, and what ship it will be on, and have had no luck. Apparently a ship left today for New York, but when I checked my VIN on the ship, it was not on it. Appreciate any comments or suggetions.

Thank you.

Congrats on the car fellow Noreaster

. Yes your car will ship into NYC Port or NJ. And the vin check takes a day or two to register on the boats website. I would check with your CA and he can tell you what boat you are on. BTW what dealer did you get the car from?

Jack: I know how anxious you are but remember to breathe. My car sat on the docks in Bremerhaven for about 10-12 days before hopping a boat. Good luck and congrats!
