Hundreds of miles. Enter the Factory and Port of Veracruz into any Map application.

My car had 17 miles which is normal for P1 cars, many HEA’s had many more (30-80 miles).

Throwback to when 2 HEA cars arrived at a local dealer and they both had 60+ miles on them, but wouldn't let me test drive one because "no one was allowed to drive these"
Then I saw IG stories of their PDI techs doing WOT pulls on the highway with both cars

That's a bummer. I got the chance to drive a HEA within 5 minutes of walking onto the lot.

The easy way if you haven’t been following along or tracking vessels is to ask your CA.

I’m picking it up this afternoon at Portland BMW. Don't have a time yet but will revise this when I do.

Edit: They are going to deliver it this afternoon.

If the car arrives today, then why can you not pick it up today? Unless you decided to pick up 8/2?

For those that doubted that SLP produced vehicles were not shipped to port via train, this should put any doubt to rest.

Translations added. C is self-explanatory.

Ahh, the Translations didn’t come thru before. Well, that’s great info. Surely adds more mystique to why it takes so damn long.

Screenshot of the correct answer, D -All of the above.

Edit, notice that the G20 below also has the protective transport film installed on the roof. It is difficult to tell if it is on the hood and trunk lid given that the car is Alpine White.
