I’ll be honest, Grand Choice looks like a $hitbox. I do not think I would even want one of my own cars on that thing.

Looking at my vessel tracker, the Grand Choice is only a couple hundred NM from Veracruz and scheduled to arrive tomorrow morning (the 5th)

Of course it will probably have to sit at anchor offshore for awhile so that might be where the delay is coming from.

Are you still at 165? My client still is. Their G87 has now been sitting at SLP for 7 weeks.

I am running out of time. My client’s car has been sitting down there for seven weeks and if it is not here by the first week of September they are more than likely bailing and quite frankly I do not blame them. BMW needs to get their logistical issues resolved and promptly!

Edit, By the way, the first full week of September would equal 12 weeks since production. There is absolutely no reason for the car not to be here in that amount of time.

Agreed, why are the cars festering after completion whether at the plant or the port. Plus, if sitting at the port for extended time, the "storage fees" the port charges usually goes up every month (maybe BMW has the money and doesnt care?).

I did just hear back from my CA...he was not in his office to send an actual picture but did relay that my car is at the port (I even sent a confirming response, port or plant and he said port). He said he would update me on Monday...

Ugh. I could not make a deal with the dealership in Connecticut because they wanted a $985 doc storage fee after initially telling me that they sell at MSRP.

Still, much appreciation to spdandpwr for his referral!

AZG87, sending you a PM in a moment about the AZ allocations if they are still available.

My client’s status has recently moved in the past 2 or 3 hours. Hopefully they get on Grand Choice, otherwise I am going to lose this sale.

Question is, how far in advance, if at all, would the VIR show if a car made it on the ship? Could it be as late as day before or day of departure?

If you are at port then you should at least be at status 182. Per my experience it is not going to show that it is on the ship until it has departed port. The name of the ship is also disclosed at that time.
