Interesting that mine was complete before yours (1/5), yet is still not on a ship. However you did order yours long before me (ordered placed 12/7) - wonder why yours was in production for so long? Regardless, I'm hoping I make it onto the Tortugas...

I was wondering that myself; I ordered the vehicle on 11/25/11 and was scheduled production week 112; it went into production 12/16/11; completed production 1/11/12; was at the port of exit on 1/12/12; waited 4 days to get on a ship 1/16/12; scheduled to be in batimore 1/30/12; expected delivery 2/10/12;

I didn't ordered anything special on the vehicle; my guess is, it must be the holidays that it took so long;

Heard from my CA that my 550i is on the California Highway. It's a K-line ship, not one of the Wallenius Wilhelmsen boats I was expecting. I didn't realize BMW used K-line for east coast deliveries.

Mine may have made this both with yours.

I ordered an imperial blue/oyster 535xi with HUD, apps, executive package and rear comfort package.

Would've gone for the m sport but wasn't a fan of the rims and didn't really have plans for aftermarket ones.

All the marine tracking sites I've been using borked out on me. Marinetraffic.com has not tracked the California Highway since making port in Baltimore, Sailwx hasn't posted an update in 8 days, and Fleet Monitor still says it's off the coast of Brunswick, GA, with an eta of 4 days ago.

Yet MyBMW says it's in stage 4 - finishing touches, which leads me to believe it's on land. Based on this I'm anticipating it being at my Atlanta dealer next week.

They sent your car to Baltimore even though you are in NY? Did you buy it from a local dealer?
