Click on the auto cargo section on the right, enter your VIN, and then you can find the ship and track it. Pretty cool. Then track the ship: http://www.sailwx.info/shiptrack/search.phtml

Congrats on the car and best of luck getting through the wait!

How cool is that. Thanks 093! Looks like the next ship coming to the east coast is the Patriot. Come on baby - get here!

The information on the ED forums at Bimmerfest indicates that BMW no longer uses WW for all west coast deliveries. Some of the west coast cars arrive on NYK Lines. Ufortunately, NYK has no similar tracking system. It is my understanding that the NYK ships do not stop on the east coast the way that the WW ships do.

Here is the shipping Schedule from the port of Bremmerhaven to Port Hueneme for the month of May 07.

Congrats on the 550 Hormazd. It's great to see some of the long term forum members with their second generation of E60's!

BTW, you'll love carbon black!

Does BMW stick with WW for all their East coast deliveries. This wait; I just can't take it any more.

On the FAQ section of e60.net it says 12 days to cross the pond but on th WW website it says 19 days. Which one is right.

My understanding is that all east coast cars arrive via WW.

My Car took 12 days from loaded on vessel to discharged in Halifax. Another day to sail to NJ, a few days to unload, 14 days may not be unreasonable.
