Thank you all for the feedback! I ordered my car as soon as the 530xi was orderable (quite a while ago). I cannot wait to see it here. I will take my digicam to the dealership to get some shots (maybe I will be the first owner to post actual photos of their own 530xi).

You are up to a month from seeing your car.

Awaiing transport could take another week (waiting for a ship to sail from Brev)
3 weeks to the East cost
4 days in customs
5 days at VPC
7 days on carrier to dealer
1 day at dealer

Give or take.

Mine is on the vessel named Morning Noble which is set to hit SC on June 1. This is really exciting. Does anyone have a 530xi scheduled to hit shores before then?
