Congrats! Our cars could very well be waiting together. I have heard different time frames, to actually get on the ship from the factory takes anywhere from as quick as 2 days to as long as 2 weeks. It all depends on how many cars are waiting ahead of us, customs. I'd say at this point we are a month away from delivery to the dealership.

You got too much time on your hands. Go and start another hobby until it gets here. You're going to drive yourself crazy.

Seriously, try to savor the moment at the dealer. You will be in a fog while the sales guy try to tell about of the car features, BS, services, signatures, overview, etc. I just thold my sales guy that what ever he was saying I either didn't give crap or it wasn't getting to the brain and I call him a week or two later if I had questions. I still haven't call him back since 12/22/12.

When they finally pull the car into the show room, I dam near cried and piss myself. F_ing beautiful was all I could say out loud!

Get her home safely (no funny stuff) and park her. Then open up a very expensive bottle of wine, liquor, beer, milk whatever you drink and just stare at the car all night.

Oh yeah, take pictures.

Enjoy the wait.

800 number and BMW web site shows it on the boat.

Yours should be along side of mine.

Oops: sorry, AlpineE92m3 was the twin of mine. I believe he posted above also. I am trying to stay cool here.

My dealer just called me back and he is showing the California Highway left on the 15th with my car. Hopefully it is going to NJ for a PCD in SC. Lets have calm seas for the next two weeks.

By the way mine was completed a little earlier. Mine was done the 7th and left the 15th and showed up on the 800 number today, just for a timeline.
