4/30 order placed
5/9 scheduled for week 25 production
6/15 production begins - VIN provided
6/27 Assembly Begins
6/28 QC; Final Assembly
6/29 Ready for Transport

Talked to Mr. Genius and he said it generally takes 1.5 - 3 weeks to get loaded onto a vessel. Since I'm in the Midwest the vehicle's port-of-call will be Baltimore.

At this point it appears it will be around two months from beginning of production until delivery.

Not complaining as many here ordered well before I did and got pushed into MY 23's.

Just grateful I got the id7 that I dearly desired, or I would be waiting 2 - 3 years for the LCI to see what improvement it had to offer.

4/4 order placed
4/7 allocation/build# provided
5/5 scheduled for production
6/15 production begins - VIN provided - build date 6/28
6/24 production begins - build date moved to 6/29
6/28 Finally getting somewhere! Build date still @ 6/29. Passed through these

• statuses today
• exterior body assembly begins
• in paint booth
• entering assembly line

6/29 assembly in progress and then quality check - build date 6/30

@IndyMike - Same, glad I am locked into a MY22 with ID7, only wish I had ACC, but in my opinion having ACC isn't worth having ID8 so I can live without it. Hoping I get on a boat soon!

You can try entering your vin into the shipper’s site:

I was able to track my M4 earlier this year that way (different carrier, but same process).

Thanks for the tip. Something else to feed the addiction.

I punched in my VIN and nothing came up. I'll keep checking.

For 2023? Your dealers have the updated pricing. I have the Canadian pricing changes, but I am guessing a bunch of US guys in here have it. They just haven't updated the configurator/site.

For those tracking, RCC Amsterdam has arrived in Philly. Too bad it's scheduled to shoot over to Baltimore before heading back north to NJ/NY port. New ETA for NJ/NY is July 9th according to https://sallaumlines.us/schedule/

I wish this boat would stop playing pinball with the ports and just land in NJ already

Genius estimated it would take a week to get to the Veracruz port from the factory both times I called. I hope that is a large overestimate on their end for a trip that I imagine can easily be done in a day or so.

I thought the wait before the car was built was bad, man it is getting even worse knowing that it is just about ready somewhere out there.

I thought the same thing. When I used Google maps it said you could walk there in about a week! Lol. I'm sure there are a lot more logistics that go into it but still.
It also looks like Bravery Ace has left the port without our cars or so it seems. Who knows what the next ship is that will head up the east coast. Ive been in ready to transport since 6/22.

I know lol did you see it went up to Brunswick, then back down to Jax, then up again. My buddies shop, where im picking it up, is like 30 minutes west of Philly so seeing the ship sitting in Philly makes me cringe lol. Hopefully itll go fast once we get off the ship in NJ

Did you check your vin on that link someone posted on the previous page? It's the carriers website. Mine doesn't show any results so I'd imagine that mine isn't on there.

I did but nothing came up. Was that supposed to be for Bravery Ace also? I looked up the schedule and saw RCC Amsterdam but not Bravery Ace. I know there are some people here with their cars on RCC Amsterdam.

Honestly I don't know. I'm completely new to tracking ships and all of this. If we were talking real estate investments I'd be a great resource, but here I'm just trying to learn.

Hopefully we can all collaborate to make this all make sense. I have a feeling our cars are just sitting in a big parking lot at the port in Veracruz.

And I think BMW tries to fill that big parking lot as much as possible...

When I spoke to Genius twice they essentially said, "there are a lot of other cars waiting along with yours for transport."

As it seems there is some bottleneck and we are all just in whatever milestone / status we are at, waiting to get through.

[jaypr9]

I just spoke to someone at Genius just to make sure I wasn't on Bravery Ace and he said it didn't look like it. I. Still in waiti g for transport but I have been assigned to a carrier he just couldn't tell me which one because it doesn't show which carrier until it's actually on it.

On a side note he was probably the most informative and best one I've talked to yet and we joke about how many times I'd call and people in general trying to get info. Probably spoke for about 5mins. Longest I've ever spoken to anyone from the Genius line.

The tracker I linked was for Bravery Ace. For RCC Amsterdam, the homepage linked above has an option for searching by VIN as well:

Thanks! I think I was confusing the 2 trackers.

Damn, mines probably sitting right near yours.

This is the worst part of the wait yet, likely because nothing is happening.

[MPR]

You guys are close, I think the worst part of the build process is order received and production scheduled...that's month(s) of no activity.

I agree with you there !
