!Xoible · 03-25-2008, 10:45 AM

as long as it didnt tip or anything

!Xoible · 03-25-2008, 10:55 AM

WTF i just checked again, the delay is 6 days now instead of 5!!!
i should stop checking or that thing aint gonna be here in 6 months

asaulo1 · 03-25-2008, 11:12 AM

I guess now we're looking at the 3rd week of April for delivery... sucks....

!Xoible · 03-25-2008, 11:14 AM

at this rate im not sure im going to freaking bimmerfest no more..... WTH!!!!

it's not showing on vesseltracker either, huh?

asaulo1 · 03-25-2008, 11:28 AM

I'm figuring around 23-24th for delivery... man... that makes it a longer wait.... is there any bad weather there? I sure hope not....

!Xoible · 03-25-2008, 11:31 AM

man that's a whole fucking month. when it was 23 days i was counting them down day by day... im like 19, 18... 31 WTF

bad day to get this bad news.... today is not a mantis day for sure. might as well be a monday

asaulo1 · 03-26-2008, 11:20 AM

just checked this morning... no change to the ww schedule... anyone heard anything different? was watching the M3 challenge last night and I was so jealous that I won't be able to drive my car for an additional week...

!Xoible · 03-27-2008, 09:22 AM

SSDD on this. i just want to know why the random 6 day delay? did they just find an island and decided to take spring break for a week or something?

im tired of waiting.... been without a car since mid-january. help me wait for it and not ditch it

asaulo1 · 03-27-2008, 10:45 AM

mantis - at least we're not on the Elektra which I'm reading had to go back to belgium due to some electrical problems with the ship.....

According to this

your MB will arrive at Panama Canal 4/8 and transit on the 11th. More delays.

it says arriving on the 8th, probably means exiting the canal on 11th? if this is the case then no delays?

idk, i dont care anymore... fuck madame butterfly, fuck bmw, fuck m3

i think if more delays happen i will just go and buy one off the lot

asaulo1 · 03-28-2008, 10:37 AM

any news today, boys? looked at the usual suspects, no change.... just was wondering, does it really take 8 days from the panama canal to California?

no news = good news when it comes to tracking those ships i guess

man every time that 20 day wait goes down, the countdown restarts!

!Xoible · 03-28-2008, 12:16 PM

I JUST GOT THIS EMAIL FROM MY CA:

"Your car is scheduled to arrive at the port on 4/6/08. It typically will arrive at the dealer from 3-5 days after that."

That means Butterfly is arriving ahead of schedule and there's a delay.

that just made my day

asaulo1 · 03-28-2008, 08:13 PM

really... man.... you think he's sure about that? I better check with my CA.. I checked to see if the maersk wave is on its way since we originally thought that would be our boat and guess what? it arrives in port hueneme the same day as madame butterfly... weird huh? and the maersk wave has a stop in halifax to boot... I sure hope you're CA is right...

well I was thinking it is either correct or a typo and she meant to say 16 and not6 or she doesn't know shit and in all three cases your ca can confirm. Keep me posted I have a lot of hope on this

!Xoible · 03-29-2008, 11:13 AM

asaulo1: so... any update? did u call ur CA???

asaulo1 · 03-30-2008, 09:42 AM

update, just checked and it looks like our ship just left southhampton yesterday... what the hell? now the ww site lists it as arriving at the 17th.... I checked vesseltracker.com and sure enough, it shows its just off the southhampton port.... this is getting nuts

!Xoible · 03-30-2008, 11:06 AM

this is what your CA told you that it left yesterday??? WTFFFF
