I ordered my Coupe on 3/24, finally found out today the estimated completion date is 4/19 Had to speak to someone directly to find that out. This is going to be a long 6 weeks. Hopefully I will driving it by the end of may.

Sweet! My estimated completion is april 18th. When do you think we'll get our babies?

Just got the surprise change in message from the automated system! Expect to hear, 'You're vehicle is schedule for production.......' and she said 'Your vehicle is in production with an estimated completion date of 4/20'

Wohoo.....

Looks like mine is a couple spots behind you folks who complete on 4/19.

Fingers crossed that we make it onto the Courage and there isnt a backlog of cars at the dock!

Is WW the only shipping option to Charleston? There is a K-line that leaves Bremerhaven on 3/25 and gets in 4/10 to Charleston (The Western Highway). So if we miss the Courage can we catch that ship instead of having to wait a week for the Integrity?

WW is only carrier to East coast. I think K-line is West carrier.

Me too. I got lucky though. Ordered March 29, production finished April 11 and now in transport to the dock to cross the pond. CA was good to me.

Hey, thome22, I'm waiting on a space gray 335i coupe with production number 3584*** as well. Talked to Micah at BMWNA this morning and was told my car was in "quality check" and would be released for transport by the end of the day. Our cars probably ran through paint pretty close together, I would guess. If we get on board the Liberty, our cars could even come west together after finishing at prep center! Not alot of bimmers coming to Oklahoma City; I think they hitch a ride with Texas cars.

Congrats! Hope they don't confuse cars as I have the same vehicle ordered. BMWNA cannot tell which ship you are going on, but your CA can. I may call tommorrow. The Liberty docks 4/13 and then leaves again 4/16. I hope there are not a load of cars ahead of us. I anticipate my car boarding that ship. I am in Tyler - about 3 hrs SE of you.

Lots of relatives in Texas (Ft. Worth and Waco). I noticed that BMWCCA Oktoberfest 2007 is in Ft. Worth this year (Sept. 30-Oct. 5). I may have to attend since it's so close-by.

Actually, no, WW goes to the west coast all the time also. Gotta find out who your shipping company is...

Me too!!!! Checked this morning and the message FINALLY CHANGED!!! Estimated completion date of 4/20

And like ecgiinla, I replayed the message 4 times to make sure I wasn't dreaming...LOL!!!!! Maybe this car will be real after all!!!

Should be interesting to see which car arrives first since we're both in AZ...

By the way, we won't be on the Courage because that's going to the east coast. We need to look for a ship sailing for Port Hueneme near L.A. That's where Arizona cars enter the USA...

BREMERHAVEN 20/04/2007 PORT HUENEME, CA 14/05/2007 TURANDOT
BREMERHAVEN 27/04/2007 PORT HUENEME, CA 21/05/2007 CARMEN
BREMERHAVEN 04/05/2007 PORT HUENEME, CA 28/05/2007 MAERSK TIDE
BREMERHAVEN 12/05/2007 PORT HUENEME, CA 04/06/2007 ELEKTRA

Those are the WW ships leaving Bremerhaven between 4/20 and 6/8. My guess is that if we're on a WW ship, it will be the Maersk Tide. I guess Carmen is possible, but that's only 7 days from completion (assuming that's accurate) to loading on the ship....

Right there with you! PN 3639XXX, "scheduled for production with no confirmed production date yet".

I'm also hoping for week 15. That's what my dealer told me, but BMWNA said week 16, and unfortunately that's probably better information...

If it was week 15 (this week) your message would have already changed. In fact, for Week 16 the message should have already changed. I would bet you're going to hear a change in the message early next week...

+1

And I was thinking that the Liberty is blue and white. The ship in the sat photo is green and white. WW ships are green and white, so if it's anyone's, my money is on a WW ship.

But some of those sat photos are 4-6mos old anyway.

I am sure thome22 knows this.

This internet stuff sucks. I swear the waiting has to be 10x worse now that we know SOMETHING about where our cars are...
