AWESOME! Your client advisor can confirm whether you definitely are, or you can enter your VIN into the shippers website

basically it seems I can't track the ship while it is in the middle of the ocean. She is crossing the Atlantic as we speak!

First stop is Halifax, NS on Feb 7, then we can see her tracking again. Then NYC on Feb 9th!!!

Oops! I guess the cars got pre-cleared for customs. See below? Your status is correct! Sorry!

Too late.

You know what though? If I go back and look at our when the production was completed on our cars, I was around a week or so after you guys. I guess I just got my hopes up that I would be able to catch up at the port.

So now I keep waiting. The Elektra (W&W) leaves 2/9. Not sure about K-line schedule.

Better a delay at the port than at the VPC!!

EDIT: K-line has the California Highway leaving 2/9 as well

Where is this info coming from? Torino hasn't hit the port yet. You are on Torino, right?

Your SA isn't exactly on the money... Torino is hitting NYC port today. Your car could definitely be at your dealer by the 15th, but it's definitely not getting things done at the VPC, yet. That should happen today or tomorrow!

I wonder if your SA mis-read the Torino status the same way I did?
