Sunrise is the next ship to get to Altamira - roughly 3 hours from now! I don't know the expected time but I suspect it will be relatively short considering it was in Veracruz for 3 days I can't imagine theres much space left.

Did your status get changed online?

Really hoping there’s still enough space for mine!

I'm banking on you. If you get on, i have a shot since i went RFT 3 days after you and we have the same port (NY/NJ).

Cant make heads or tails of this supply chain. Altimaira has had tons of cargo moving in the last 2 weeks while the earth stood still at Veracruz but still there are ships leaving Veracruz and heading to Altamira. You would think that the sunrise is at max capacity due to the lack of movement in a month from the port but we will see. We can only hope that all of the cars at Veracurz was picked up by the sunrise.

Scheduled for Prod (VIN):10/24
Production Date: 11/3
Quality Check: 11/6

PD: I’ve been following this thread ever since I placed my order and I can’t wait for you guys to get your cars. I hope you’re on the latest ship you guys have been tracking (Sunrise)!

At this rate dont plan on receiving your vehicle until 2024 unless BMW is pushing to get year end sales in. Things could pick up but based on our experience in this group....We have been waiting an average of 4-5 weeks to get on ships from the RFT date. Genius is reporting 6-8 weeks from RFT.

Once a Manufacturer finishes the build, it's already allocated to a store and goes towards the Manufacturer's count/total numbers of car "sold" for the year (They are counting sold from Manufacturer to Retailer, not how many cars were sold from a Retailer to a customer).

With that being said, BMW doesn't care what happens to the car after it's built because they are already factoring that into their Yearly Sales Number. So unfortunately, end of the year does not speed up production or deliveries

Amen to that, 9/29 RFT as well

Sunrise updated ETA at Brunswick, now Nov 12. Apologies if already posted, haven't been keeping up with the messages.

Edit: looks like xiven already posted . You guys are quick.

Edit2: I see a couple of you got on the Sunrise, congrats. I double checked with BMW genius again to see if their system updated since earlier today, but I'm still "in transit to the port", RFT since Oct 1, LoL.
I wonder how they're choosing cars to get shipped. Maybe they also have a first in last out queue. Who do we need to buy a corona to get our cars loaded onto a ship

There should have been 4800 picked up in Veracruz and 2500 in Altamira
Expect Sunrise to be docked in Altamira for 1.5-2 days.

Where’d you get those numbers?

I got the 2500 from the port of Altamira program list, and I looked up the total capacity of the Sunrise to deduce the Veracruz number.

Nice find on the Altamira schedule!

[k-m2-j442]

@mtoo - good find, I had saw the capacity of the sunrise but didn't know the published that info

Glovis Sunrise is pulling into altamira as I type this...assuming mtoo is correct - we have at least a day there before heading out, more waiting.

[xiven]

Sunrise is pulling in to the port now to dock. Kmj442 beat me to it!

They got in pretty fast…probably got priority due to the delays at Veracruz. Hoping for some status changes soon

Been at the port in New Jersey since Oct 13th.

Pretty sure BMW just won't ship one car to my small town dealer, so I am still tracking ships with you all and hope more cars come in to Jersey soon!

[k-m2-j442]

That sucks dude...

In good news though Sunrise looks to me be moored and the process can begin.

Woke up this morning and checked my status and it moved from RFT to Awaiting Carrier Assignment! Not showing it's on a ship yet, but at least I've moved out of RFT after being in there for 38 days!

Check your statuses people, there may be some updates in there!

Status changed for me as well!

Now showing awaiting carrier assignment, been RFT since 10/3, that’s gotta mean i got on at Veracruz or am getting on at Altamira right? Genius told me I wasn’t at the port yet and I’m really hoping she was wrong.
