Production completed Jan. 4th- When will it come?

alpinewhite3 · 01-02-2006, 02:18 PM

Hey,
I' dont know if i can wait any longer...I called the 1-800 BMW
number and found out that my production will be completed on
January 4th. I ordered the car on December 11th.
People who have been through this before, how long will it
take from production completion to delivery?
thanks

My car is on the high seas... but I'll at least share my experience.

From production completion - it took me about 10-11 days to get on a ship. The voyage to NY is 11 days. After that - you'll spend likely 3-4 days docking and at the VPC. Your dealer should get it 1-2 days after that since you're in NY already. So I would say from today - you have about 4 weeks if everything goes smoothly at each stage.

I ordered my car on 12/12 BTW - so it's strange you're not on a ship already.

If it gets on a ship bound for NY soon, I would expect it in 18-20 days.

Mine will be complete on 1/11. Maybe we'll be on the same ship.

Exciting stuff!

My car is scheduled to complete production on the 10th. I'm in the Phoenix area. What's the port of entry and how much longer does it take to get over than an east coast car?

Add 2 weeks to east coast time if you are on the WC. So rather than 6-8 weeks, you're looking at 8-10. You're extra time is spent on the ship.

Mine took 5.5 weeks

I believe your port is Port Hueneme??? Take a look at the pinned thread 'Ultimate Tracking Guide' you can find out your ship and its schedule.

your car will be completed on my birthday! Jan. 11

I have been waiting for a ship at the port of exit since Jan. 6th.
Seems like forever though! My production completed on Jan 4th.
so it took them 2 days to ship the car to the port.

Next ship leaves on the 9th, then 12th, 13th, 16th.
can't wait!

Good luck - my dealer told me my ship would be a day early to NY - this part of the wait is the worst... when you're so close...

Hope you get on the ship on the 9th - otherwise another 3 days....
