I believe that if you call the 800 number and talk to a live person you can find out the date of the status change to In Transit.

w00t! The Bellona has shown up on AISLive again. She is right off of Baja California!

Thanks...unfortunately they said they can only tell me when it arrived at the European port, not the date it left. Have to get that info from my dealer, who has yet to get back to me. I do know the car arrived at the port on 10/12 and that it went "in transit" between then and 10/20.

I didn't think the wait would be bad, but I think I am becoming obsessed now.

You are most likely on the Bellona then.

Because it's just floating by mexico at 16.4knots. Not stopped there.

It is scheduled to dock in PH at 3 pm on Thursday.

That's what I am hoping for.

tommithy · 11-09-2006, 09:23 AM

Here is the Bellona west of San Diego Harbour!!! Not much further to go!!

JW28 · 11-09-2006, 12:02 PM

Now if I could just get confirmation that I am actually on the ship!

derrick · 11-09-2006, 12:52 PM

freakin floating by me!!

tommithy · 11-09-2006, 01:33 PM

And here she is floating by LA.

therealm3 · 11-09-2006, 01:46 PM

soooo close, yet so far......

tommithy · 11-09-2006, 04:13 PM

Ok, here is an update. Bellona is circled in red, Port Hueneme is in grey. She has about 30 nautical miles to go and is currently travelling at 11.7knots so it looks like we won't be docking until about 5-6 pm.

I hope my car wasn't damaged...

I thought I would join the Bellona support group. My 335 Black Sapphire sedan is aboard the Bellona as well.

That makes at least 2 black sapphire sedans on board. Welcome. Better be careful with pics like that...could cause a mass panic followed by prolonged hospitalization with this group!

I saw that picture in my Motor Trend last night, 4700 auto's on board. Glad it wasn't the Bellona. I don't think I could have waited another 8 weeks!

Nice choice in colors JW....Our cars ar very similar. Mine is Sapphire with Black Dakota, Aluminum Trim, Sports Package, Premium, Cold Weather, Comfort, Sat. and Park distance.

I remember reading a story in the paper about that ship...tipped somewhere up near Alaska. They actually got it back to port and saved the ship...don't know about the cargo though.

Nice choice on the ride...You have fine taste if I don't say so myself. The car I have right now has aluminum trim and I kind of got tired of it...needed a little change of pace.

pspro1 · 11-09-2006, 05:09 PM

I cant wait to have it say.......at prep center. In the mighty words of BORAT...... "that would be nice".

. I need to get my final paper work so that i could get me loan check. I dont want to wait once my car gets to the dealer.

I had the Black Cube as part of the ZHP package in my e46, I wish it was an option on the e90. I had a hard time making a decision between the wood and aluminum.

Well, I have seen a 335 with the black/aluminum combo and I think you will be more than happy.

Did you order an AT (with paddles) or manual?
