March M-DCT Delivery roll call ...

skierman64 · 03-17-2008, 02:02 PM

That is good news. Finally a DCT car is heading to it's final home in the USA. I'm guessing some other DCT cars built the first week in March are also on board headed to the west coast.

Congrats APW!! This makes me optimistic that my car and skier's will make it onto a ship on the 19th.

Oh I see...F Gasman.

JK I pray that I catch a KLine ship leaving tomorrow. I believe that ship on the 19th from WW has been rescheduled for the 20th.

Your right Gasman, it has been rescheduled.....

that means a extra day of waiting.

Which port will the TX cars come through?

They go through Charleston, SC. So, I can either catch a Kline ship directly to SC from Bremerhaven in 9 days...or get on a WW ship that takes 19days.

Just joking...I hope we all get our cars ASAP. This waiting has been so frustrating.

skier and fifth, what are the chances my car gets on the same boat as yours on the 19th. I finished production on March 12th. Thanks.

skierman64 · 03-17-2008, 02:45 PM

Here's some more potential bad news. If the ship delays further until the 21st it may not leave until the 25th. Good Friday, Easter and Easter Monday are all holidays. However it doesn't say anything about Saturday, but it looks like a 4 day weekend for the port.

Educated guess: I'd say your chances are pretty good.

You'll have to join Fifth and I at Rutgers the second weekend in April (hopefully) so we can take a pic of 3 DCT cars together. All different colors (white/grey/black). That will be extremely cool.

Everyone would be welcome, regardless of vehicle.

apw2607 · 03-17-2008, 02:53 PM

I wonder if our cars will have the silver center console that was reported in the other M-DCT thread ;-)

skierman64 · 03-17-2008, 02:57 PM

LOL, I really like the one photo with the box around the shift lever.

We need a support group. This is bad, bad, bad.

Pasta Blitz · 03-17-2008, 04:30 PM

I'm on Elektra EA811-ELX

due to arrive the East coast on 27th March.

xxruffdmxx · 03-17-2008, 05:45 PM

Congratulations Pasta. What did you use to get this info? I am trying to track mine using the website in the "tracking" post and when I put in my VIN it doesn't identify the cargo. Is that what you used?

holy crap, congrats!!

What did you use to track it?? I put my vin in but i get nothing...

Did your SA tell you?

From deductive logic...we can assume that Skierman's and my car should be on the ship with yours since we are the only other 2 members that completed production before you.

Just ask your CA to do a vehicle inquiry. The ship name is in that info. Only the dealers have access to this info. BMW Customer service dont. I'm sure your cars are probably already on boats since they were made before all of ours !!

How can DCT be on it's way w/o any track tests released?
