What's up asaulo! It was good meeting you last weekend @ the dealership.

I'm thinking it's closer to around six weeks from the end of production...

Mine finished on the 25th of Feb, @ the port of exit on the 27th, @ Oxnard on the 23rd, @ dealer last week of March or 1st days of April...

Hope this helps!

My boat is reaching port as we speak! Yay hopefully less then two weeks from here!!!

OC, mine is on the Phoenix Leader as well. Lets hope they clear VPC quickly! I heard one dude's was there an extended period?

Looks like the Falstaff offloaded at Port Hueneme yesterday as scheduled.

S65B40 · 03-11-2008, 11:38 AM

The newest schedule of Port Hueneme is up, and Grand Venus' ETA has been delayed for 1 day

My car is waiting on a boat. Does that count?

NavNurs · 03-11-2008, 01:31 PM

Greg, keep us updated! It looks like our cars will take the same path? My ship is predicted to dock on the 23rd. Delivery is to portland.

Greg W...It is in the garage as of yesterday and it was a kick to put it there. Can't believe how long it has taken to get yours...It will be worth trust me

Nice! So our cars can keep each other company... Have you had any luck tracking the ship? I called NYK direct, they were clueless...

I hear it's supposed to make it to Oxnard on the 23rd...

P.S. You're going to Bimmerfest too right?

I believe you!

How much did you sell your 2001 for GregW? My stealer offered me a trade in price of $36k for my 2006 ZCP with only 9k miles on it.

Congrats. How much did your dealer want to give you? $21k?

lucid · 03-12-2008, 07:52 AM

My dealer offered $16k, which is $4k below what I should be able to get for it myself according to KBB and edmunds. What a rip-off. The car has only 35k miles on it. I'll sell it myself of course.

Have your client advisor do a vehicle inquiry through a DCS.

NavNurs · 03-12-2008, 01:33 PM

Nope, no luck tracking beyond the schedule showing it docking on the 23rd. I also have no idea how long it will take for transportation to the dealer in Portland.

Bimmerfest may happen, though it all depends upon the work schedule. Will have to wait.
