... My car officially "finished production" today. Anyone have any rough estimate of how long it takes from this stage until it reaches the NYC area? BMWNA is very helpful in general but they really seem to have no idea what the timelines might be.

Sorry, this is based on my poor memory alone...but mine showed finished production for around 2-3 weeks before it showed up stateside. Hope that helps.

For mine, completed production 17 March, took delivery 13 April 2011. NYC area.

If your car finished today, it is likely to leave Bremerhaven within a week, and will get delieverd to you roughly 3 weeks afterwards. I highly suggest you look at the "How to track your car" threads which will give you a wealth of information on tracking your car outside the BMW network by using the actual shippers from overseas. I was able to track my car down to the ship it was on. (many of us have) ...and was even able to see a live camera feed of it coming into Southampton"s port when it was arriving in England to drop a shipment of cars off. The BMW site will be delayed in getting you information and in order to go the shipper route, you will really need your VIN#, which your dealer should be able to give you at this point.
