I was 165 on 9/30, but I'm pretty sure the earliest I've seen is 9/29. Hopefully Kmj442 CA is right and the Sunrise is picking up our vehicles. Anybody know what the next few stops, and dates, for the Sunrise are?

My build date is 9/14 (RFT from 9/29) and I’m still in ready for transport. I’m the earliest one I’ve seen on here.

Saw the Sunrise beelining 12 knots towards shore at 1am. Had hope going to sleep, lets get some real updates now!

Earliest PCD date option: 11/16

Hope this sheds some light on those who are wondering about shipping time frames (when it's not delayed)...

Wonder if they prioritize the PCD cars over some of the others here as I was on a very similar schedule to yours (Production Date: 10/13).

Looks like I'll be at the Performance Center on 11/20 to pick mine up, can't wait!

It's rough here cause in Minneapolis it's already dropping below 40f and snowed last weekend. My car might end up being driven from the dealership to the garage and stored until roads clear. One day difference and I would have been driving for a couple weeks, not trying to forecast if I am going to drive it. B-r-u-t-a-l.

My wife and I have decided I have very good fortune, but bad luck.

Has anyone's tracker actually updated from RFT to "awaiting carrier", "at the port", or "dispatched from factory"?

I assume if i get on the sunrise it will jump to "in transit"

Thanks Lander1118 no problem - I'm just as excited as everyone else here. I have the vessel finder sub until the end of Nov so if anyone has any other ships to monitor let me know! I know my focus has been on Sunrise since thats what my CA said I'd be on but I can check on the others as well (at least until the end of the month)

Edit: Its finally marked as "Arrived!"

How does your CA know what ship you'll be on? Mine doesn't have any idea in the slightest nor does BMW Genius. Also are you able to check what vehicle carriers are going to galveston from veracruz or even altamira in the next 1-2 weeks?

This is a tough question to answer. Often the updates don't happen until the ship is under way and your port is coming. There have been suggestions they scan on boat prioritizing the first destination port.

But this is all a guess. All we do know is it doesn't happen immediately.

Just finally finished production, but kinda hoping for a small delay lol. Ended up getting our allocation pushed forward due to others passing on the allocation. We were planning for spring/summer not dead middle of winter. If it's anything like my M3 was last year it'll get lost in transport to the port and literally end up 2 countries away and take months 😂

Yeah that is rough. Hope you get at least some time to drive it before/during winter. I'm lucky in that regard since I live in the Charlotte, NC area so we barely get any snow here lol.

i don't know how he knows but I do know he has access to more info than BMW Genius. He hasn't told me anything thats been explicitly wrong so I have no reason not to trust his email at this point.

So I can look at carriers in transit that have a schedule planned but for example if I look at Brunswick right now, Glovis Sunrise does not appear on the expected arrival "Vehicle Carriers" but I suspect it will when its update itinerary is published (wherever they get published, it has to be done somewhere for logistics purposes).

Looking at the Brunswick 15-day outlook, the Glovis Sunrise is on there and is currently scheduled to dock on the 10th.

I suspect this will be updated since there was a significant delay at Veracruz. Unfortunately, I can't find any 15-day outlook for Baltimore and I don't see it showing up for the next month in the Philly schedule.

Philly isn't a BMW site so if we skip that it'll speed up NY/NJ. Me being super selfish hope it goes North and then works its way south haha but doubt that will be the case. Yeah I didn't want to rely on 15 day outlooks that maybe haven't been updated recently since there was that delay at Veracruz.

It's early enough the snow is gone and we are back in the low 50s, but climate change (or whatever you want to blame for the drastic weather changes...) has made winters completely unpredictable. Supposed to be mild from El Nino, but...

Even this snow caught us off guard. My wife got a X3 m-sport (took literally 5 days from prod start to at dealership. Sep 8th we took delivery), and with the m-sport package no all-season option which we haven't addressed.

Clubhouse leader for wtf path of all the idling vehicle carriers:

Also how long could it possibly take to get thousands of cars on a boat, why hasn't Sunrise set off yet lol
