With the Toronto no longer stopping at Veracruz, the next bet for a boat that goes from Vercruz to Baltimore (and also stops at Altamira and Brunswick) is Bravery Ace, maybe others that I haven't checked.

I think you mean Frontier Ace. Bravery Ace is in Panama right now.

Some potential good news: my car was just released to the glovis sunrise (just got an email from my CA). So at the very least some port nj/ny cars will be on that one!

Interesting. Thats the ship I've been analyzing this morning and hoping it stops in Brunswick. If it does, my car should make it on there as well. Let me know when your tracker updates.

Oh really?? That’s fantastic! I’m really hoping I’m in there with you. My port is Baltimore. I’m pretty sure I’ve been in RFT about as long as you. Since 9/29. I’ve also been tracking this ship. According to the schedule mtoo posted earlier, it is scheduled to stop in Baltimore:

Frontier Ace is not showing a stop in Baltimore. Bravery Ace stops in Veracruz 11/17 and Baltimore 11/27.

I'll have to check out Glovis Sunrise! There is hope!

Whats your port of Destination? Baltimore or NJ?

For those that have been told that their car is sitting in a warehouse at the port waiting for a ship assignment, this google maps view from Veracruz aligns with that.

That’s encouraging….was your status updated online? And what’s your build? I know this is the M2 group but it was invaded by all east coast customers. I’m waiting on a 330i. I really hope I make that ship.

[k-m2-j442]

My status is not updated online as of yet. I’ll keep everyone updated as I figure more things out. Unfortunately based on the timetable shown above it doesn’t even show glovis sunrise going to nj/ny so we don’t have an expected date. I’d assume it’s shortly after Philly or Baltimore which puts it after 11/13

Thanks for the update. Do you know if your car is in Altamira or Veracruz?

Glovis Sunrise is currently anchored at Veracruz so I assume his car’s at Veracruz.

Wow, cool news! Glad you were able to get an update on the weekend.

Interesting too, I wonder how logistics work?? Do they fill up the Veracruz warehouse first, then fill up Altamira, and then back and forth?
Is it by build week?
Is it by car type?
Is it by destination?

I guess the rest of us will have to wait until Monday to call BMW genius and find out which vessel we're on.

I also assume but do not know for certain

This is the sign that we were all waiting for. With the ship anchored and loading on the weekend, a lot of us "should" be getting our updates on monday and by that time the ship will be US bound.

I hope this info holds. I’m cautiously optimistic, but don’t want to celebrate too early.

I agree….but I figured something would have to give this upcoming week with the vehicle carriers scheduled to hit the Veracruz dock. I know it’s only a matter of time but like you said…cautiously optimistic.

Glovis Sunrise is not on the Brunswick 15 day outlook

If this holds true, though, Northeast deliveries would be the week of Thanksgiving ?

[40 Cylinders]

maybe I got a little lucky...order accepted by BMW 8/11...arrived at dealership yesterday,10/28.... fair amount of options..$87k
Monday can't come fast enough...BSM 6-MT

[Rickyj4u]

The sunrise is also planning to hit up Altamira port later on in the week. Its currently anchored off the coast of Veracruz so fingers cross we get some good news this week regardless of the port of exit. This ship should be moving into position by COB tomorrow to start loading cars.

My G87 went to Ready for Transport 9/29 too Nate. I’m a midwesterner lurking in this thread!
Destination Chicagoland so transport may be different but I’m thinking it won’t make it until December at this point which is tough. I’m hoping El Niño does help soften winter .

Nice to see a couple other Midwesterners in this thread! Originally, I was hoping to get the car in October and get a handful of nice fall drives. Was also hoping to get the first oil change interval done before winter really sets in. That's looking less and less likely so, yes, I'm also hoping for a mild winter that goes by quickly!
