Oh man, I sure hope not. I'm hoping its just the transportation companies trying to wait as long as they can to fill trucks up completely before making the route. Complete speculation lol but wishing for the best. If you hear more on your end, please update!

RCC Amsterdam friends - I'm still stuck at port nj going on almost a week now. Dealership delivery date is still estimated for today, but no movement at all at the port..

I'd literally hire my own transportation and ship the car myself if that was an option. Calling my dealer shortly and will update yall. Fingers crossed no more delays.
That’s really annoying man for you and Lord two hats! It’s frustrating for sure at this point.

I thought it was in bad shape. My car was picked up and delivered to the dealer on Friday. But they wouldn’t release it to me due to not having a MSO. I should be getting it today! I was pumped to have it over the weekend and was let down lol

Did you guys get port installed options? I’m wondering if that’s the hold up. Or maybe they won’t delivery them without the MSO like they did to me.

No port added options here, and congrats! What's your spec?

I have the premium package but the typical light design, but I also have shadowline so maybe that's it?

They have another ship which was due today in NJ/NY, but more likely tomorrow as it is moored in philly, they could be waiting to combine to fill the carriers. Or it could be something completely different

My car is on that ship too. I think they just got a bit behind schedule. Hopefully they hit the seas this evening on their way up to NY.

Must be shadowline package then. I know when you get shadowline you have to get premium so I think that was what I was thinking of there

My concern is the work order for the second quality check on the car was started last Wednesday the 13th, and in that time span the other M240 on order for the dealership started and completed its work order, and then got loaded onto a truck and delivered to our dealership. The kicker is he put in his order 6 hours after mine lol

So my work order is completed, the car is just waiting to be "released to carrier" (get picked up from the port). ETA for dealer delivery was supposed to be today but CA says he doesn't have any further insight on timing. His gut tells him a truck will be assigned today and delivery tomorrow, but who knows. For you NY guys, I'm supposed to be heading up to Long Island on Saturday for the day and would love to put some break-in miles on her. Fingers crossed tomorrow is the day.

Nice, congratulations on it finally moving!! I'm still waiting to move and I'm hoping the VPC gets back to my manager soon with any sort of update.

I'd love to cruise with you, hopefully I can take delivery this week, but it's looking doubtful.

I just saw that on marinetraffic.com too. Man, that really sucks. It was originally supposed to be in NY today. I sold my F30 as well, buyers check is in the mail.

Well, if this is the case, maybe I'll get my car after July 29th. I have a nice bonus coming and I didn't need it to get the car, but if I throw that bonus at the down payment my monthly payments will be about $500/mo. I'll take that all day.

For all of you guys waiting, this part when it's on the ship is the worst part of the wait. I'm losing my mind and I'm sure I'm not alone.

Yeah really like to know the reason for that. Why go up then back down to Baltimore. Oh well. Show its arriving at 0400 4/19. Hope it hurries up there and takes off to ny/nj after that. Was hoping this weekend but dont think thats going to happen. Maybe early next week.

I’m with you , I sold my Subaru STi almost three months ago and been driving a 2000 Toyota Solara with 218000 miles on it .It was originally my sons college car and just today she’s running rough and the side view mirror fell off and the exhaust manifold is leaking and getting louder by the day.I need my new car lol.
