How long was your BMW at the prep center

Mine gets to Brunswick on the 26th and I hope to pick it up befor labor day. What do you think my chances are?

Mine was there for a day or 2. It reached the dealership 3 days after the vessel arrived at the port.

2 days ...Another 4 days at the dealer (1 day check and prep by service dept. + 3 days until a Saturday pickup).
Total wait time after getting the call car is off boat : 6 days.

Mine was at the Pt. Hueneme PDC for 3 weeks!!! My CA said it took so long because of having to get the aero kit installed and painted.

Some other folks on this forum who had vehicles on the same boat got theirs as quickly as 4 days.

I called the port broker today and they told me that my car will be realesed in 2-3 days after the boat arrives. The boat is supposed to get to Brunswick on the 26th so 3 day puts it at Friday.

I sure hope they are right because I already bought my plane ticket here. I dont want to spend a night in a hotel. Best part is....LABOR DAY AND MY NEW 335!!!!!!
