A lot of digging through your ports and schedules. BMW seems to use NYK for the West coast. Found their schedule on their site.

Slick1984 · 05-25-2023, 01:38 PM

Interesting. So the three options for a southeast US delivery would be morning concert, potentially grand pioneer, and NOCC atlantic. I’m unable to see future port stops for each of these, assume that is a premium subscription? Currently Marinetraffic only shows the departure and arrival ports. Do y’all have premium subs to see where it goes next?

Btw, still in final assembly and I guess SLP is sticking to my original prod week 20 completion which was the 26th of May. I expect it to switch to RFT tomorrow but we shall see. Best case is making morning concert but if not, hoping GP makes a stop at Brunswick.

I should say i’m totally assuming Brunswick is the port of delivery for US Southeast, could be wrong there too.

Grand Pioneer is in fact stopping in Brunswick, which is great news for people who will miss Morning Concert.

Not sure. As of now, it’s due in Brunswick 6/5, TWO DAYS before Morning Concert, which has now been pushed back to 6/7 and not leaving Veracruz until 5/29. Fuck me.

LOL our luck, so any chance we might catch the GP instead of MC?

Yes, but at this point, who knows when the GP will actually come in port. Considering MC will be there for 5-6 days before it leaves, I suspect GP’s schedule will be pushed back as well. It certainly didn’t make a quick turnaround or run last time.

As this point, it’s looking like my approval will expire before I get the car. I’m considering canceling PC pick up and arranging delivery at the closest dealer to the Brunswick port. Will make for a longer drive home, but should take care of most of my break-in.

Can you not close on the vehicle loan before you take delivery? I don't know when your approval expires, but I'd think you can close on everything the last week of your approval

You have to take delivery within a maximum of 10 days of signing off.

PC scheduling is usually a minimum of 2 weeks after the car clears the port. I have the MP HAS and another labor intensive port install. The timing is turning against me with every delay.

My contacts at the PC have been great and that’s giving me hope in regards to scheduling.

But it comes down to the boat, port, and how many others are awaiting slots in Greer.

Have you spoken to Genius yet? They might have more insights versus the generic RFT status. In my case, I’m still officially in “Final Assembly” as per the app but in actuality at the port! BMW is obviously not doing a great job in keep the system updated here.

I’m still sitting at final assembly almost 10 days later. Genius has no further updates nor does my CA. Sucks because it seems my car is in some sort of a 🕳️.

Hypori We’re you able to get on a vessel? Our dates/build were pretty similar until I got stuck

Well, my CA doesn't know crap because he thinks my car is coming from Germany. I called BMW Genius and they told me it was on the way to the port/waiting to be assigned a vessel, which seems to be right. I've been looking through NYK schedules and it seems that it will most likely be on the Aries Leader that's docking on 6/4. Hoping that is the case. They also said that they don't have the information of which vessel if will be on until it's loaded onto the vessel.

Sounds eerily similar! Good luck man… the patience required is unreal lol.

cmgbk75 · 06-02-2023, 12:23 PM

Well I just had a great conversation with the team at my center. Without going into too much detail, I have been assured that my parts are at the port and my car will be prioritized through. If, for some reason there’s a hiccup, my rate lock will be extended.

This is the best news I’ve heard all week, sorry Sethhboii this narrowly surpasses your win yesterday.

Assuming all goes according to plan, these guys have my BMW business.

Who can I contact to see if my parts are at the port? I our cars are both going to Brunswick.
