bookman2 and jbl16, I think my car is also on the Trinidad - have you succeeded in getting your VIN to track on the W&W site? Mine is not coming up, and I was wondering whether I was in the right place. Thanks!

No VIN @ W&W
Quote:
Hmmmm. This is all I get: (I put xxx where my VIN was...) Maybe the car fell off... or worse, never made it on the boat in the first place. Anyone else have this problem? Thanks!

Mine is scheduled to finish production July 1. Also will arrive in Chas. I just ordered last week (June 16) so I'm pumped.

Did you just enter in the first 5 letters of your vin under cargo ID?
WBAVB? or do I enter in the entire VIN #? Thanks.

jbl16,
Thanks for the screenshot - now I know what I am looking for. I wonder if you recall whether your car changed to "in transit" on the 800 number around the 15th when it was booked for the voyage, or around the 20th when it was loaded? I am guessing that mine is not on the Trinidad after all, but perhaps was booked on the Freedom that left today - then it might appear at W&W in another couple of days. Thanks!

It appeared on the 1800 number tuesday, on the shipping website wednesday. Apparently it takes a few days to update. Yeah you enter the whole vin number.

My car should be docking in the NJ port today! Hopefully I'll be driving it by this point next week! I know that's hopeful, but my dealer says that on top of it being a hot car, it's already a sold car, so it takes priority over the cars that are coming over just to sit on lots.

The good news is that it will in Charleston on 7/3, a couple of days earlier than I expected! You can see vessel arrival at Charleston Port - useful if your boat doesn't track. So I guess, not everyone's car will be trackeable exactly as mapped out in this thread at the top... aah the complexity of supply chains.

Unforuntately, the boat my car was on, Morning Sapphire, didn't track. I do know it docked today in NJ - now I can't track it anymore! Would my dealer have any idea when it's coming in? Or is it, "we'll know when it gets here"?

Just checked the tracking page and it says that it has been "discharged"
Does that mean that it has just left the ship or that it has left the port and heading towards the VPC. Does anyone know? Thanks! |

For what it's worth, my order went from "en-route"
to "vehicle prep center" on Wednesday. Friday (two days later)I got a call from my dealer saying it arrived. I was counting on a week or two at prep center. Pleasantly surprised. East Coast delivery to Tampa, Fl. Picking it up Monday. Wooo Wooo!! |

Thanks for the response bookman2 and hunter 399 - I checked with the dealer again, and now know that the car is on the Andes Highway, due 7/3 in Charleston. Originally I had thought that cars might come to Houston directly - there is a fairly large port here... but I guess as far as BMW is concerned, it is East Coast. The Andes Highway isn't a W&W boat, so that's why my car didn't track. (I had copied and pasted my VIN straight from the Owner's Circle, but it had crossed my mind that it was a typo). Anyway, I have a few days of calm as I imagine my car bobbing across the Antlantic. I am guessing the computer on the BMW 800 number is already missing my daily calls! I will be calling again on the 3rd to see how things progress.
