I feel your pain. I'm on the Tagus, which is untrackable in open water. It's supposed to dock in Halifax tomorrow and NY on 4/22 (one day late!).

I hoped I would be better about the waiting but that sure isn't the case.

honestly I think I would be better off if I couldn't track it b/c I can't resist checking every couple hours, I'm suppose to reach NY on the 28th f-ing 9days from today

The reason I thought I would be better is that I can't pick it up until May 3 because of work travel. However, now I just keep trying to spin scenarios to change things around to pick it up

Didn't you say your were coming down with a horrible cough joined with frequent visits to the "throne", I think you are up for a couple sick days right around the time you get delivery...

I hope mine gets here on time and through VPC quickly my bday is on the 7th and it would be sweet to get it on my bday...either way its going to be close to it

Unfortunately it doesn't work that way for me. I'm the boss so the issue isn't whether I can take the day off but rather whether the meeting has to happen. Can't complain - makes it possible to have an M3.

If you were to ask nicely, I would give it the proper break-in it so badly needs in your absence!

Lucid - What a generous offer! I really wouldn't want to trouble you. However, on May 3, photo documentation of the much superior M-DCT compared to your now old fashioned 6MT would be greatly appreciated!

My CA asked about you yesterday (was in doing paperwork on the M3 and getting my wife's tire repaired). I told him you were having a great time with your car.

FWIW, we got tire insurance on my wife's 335 vert last year. She hit a pothole (easily done in Boston) with her winter set up, which destroyed the wheel and tire - we're now $75 ahead on the insurance!

Monsta - Hopefully you can continue to track Integrity - Tagus is due into Halifax but it's not listed yet on the WW website (they update after it sails) and it still doesn't show up on vesseltracker.

Has Poseidon sunk my ship due to his poor delivery experience????

Sure. I thought I'd offer to help just in case.

I'll be there with my camera. We can do a DCT vs. 6MT photo shootout!

I'm dying to see it too, I know its going to look good and after I get it I know others just like you who have been waiting to decide will get it too. Which ever choice you go with its going to look beautiful.
