Just got updated today that the car is done and passed quality inspection and it is on the way to port.

All i need now is ship schedule to track the boat.

Only 4 more weeks to go.

Life sucks right now.

It appears that my car is indeed left behind from Takara. My M5 will be stuck in germany until 9/29's ship Targus arriving at Port Hueme on 10/25/05.

Which means, i won't take delivery until early nov. This blows. It has been at port since 9/12/05.

OK, I missed the fact that you are shipping to Port Hueme.

BREMERHAVEN 25/09/2005 PORT HUENEME, CA 21/10/2005 TAGUS ED527-TGU 26 Book It
BREMERHAVEN 02/10/2005 PORT HUENEME, CA 30/10/2005 TRIANON ED528-TRN 28 Book It
BREMERHAVEN 03/10/2005 PORT HUENEME, CA 31/10/2005 MAERSK WIND ED529-MWI 28 Book It
BREMERHAVEN 15/10/2005 PORT HUENEME, CA 10/11/2005 ISOLDE ED530-ISO 26 Book It
BREMERHAVEN 20/10/2005 PORT HUENEME, CA 15/11/2005 DON CARLOS ED531-DOC 26 Book It
BREMERHAVEN 25/10/2005 PORT HUENEME, CA 20/11/2005 TURANDOT ED532-TUR 26 Book It

But doesn't the Tagus leave 9/25 and arrive 10/21?
