I found out from the dealer yesterday that my car is still in port, but scheduled to depart on a ship Thursday, 3-23. I have a ship name, but no shipping lines info. Does anyone know how to find a ship if all you have is the ship name? At any rate, I'm about 4 weeks out.....my guess anyway
Check the FAQ part of the forum related to delivery, lomag has listed a bunch of resources including ship tracking. This forum is amazing.

Are you kidding?? lol, I can recite the FAQs from memory regarding tracking!! But, from what I can tell, I need a shipping line to track one of their ships....all I can get from my dealer is a ship name. Oh well......it will get here when it gets here, right? Unless......it's one of those transports that sinks!!

Well, if you are one of the first, then it's your responsibility to help those of us still waiting by posting lots of pics as soon as you get her!!

Congrats, and enjoy!! No, I'm not envious at all!!

Sounds like the two of you (ChiMD, Kmlso) and a few others (wassy, veight) are on this board and getting new 07's soon. I posted a question regarding what to watch for when picking up car from dealer. This relates to fees they tack on.

When the two of you get your car, please let me know what to expect $$$ on final sale sheet, it would be very much appreciated.

And post some pics, you know I will (in 6 freaking weeks! )

Mine is in production now, expect to be done (according to BMW automated hotline) by 3/28. So I am thinking first couple weeks of May for delivery with Aero Kit beingt added once it get to the states.
wmbii, the automated hotlines aren't the most accurate method of determining the status. Ask your dealer and he/she will be able to get you the exact status at any point in time.

For me, the hotline was in 'Transit Mode' long past my delivery.

Thanks; I was under the impression that if I talked with a live operator via the hotline they had the same info as my dealer? I feel like a real tool calling my salesman about ever little thing. Are you saying dealer has more up to date info? Cheers.
