Anyone on the Hojin? Left 4/3 for WC.

Hi guys,

just found out from my CA that my car left Bremerhaven on the 3rd and is scheduled to arrive at Port Huenme on April 25th. Are there others also awaiting shipment by this vessel?

Do you have the specific website to enter your VIN number that tells you you are on this ship? I am not having much luck with the sites mention in the stickied thread on this topic.

I think that you might be on the same ship as I am.
When did you finish production and what is your VIN?

I completed 3/31 and my VIN ends in 40799.

Thanks.

I think I might of made the Hojin. My OC changed to enroute today which makes sense if the Hojin left on 4/3. Honestly I don't know how I made that ship. My car was complete on 3/31. With transport to port for a couple days that means I make the ship after 1 day at port. Seems impossible but I'll take it.

I could be in the saddle by first weekend of May

I think I completed production around the same time and my VIN ends in 40860. Close enough for me! I'll send my CA an email asking if he knows what boat I'm on.

Hi all, first post here but long time lurker. I have learned a lot from everyone.

I have an M3 on order and I'm on the Hojin. Just wanted to let everyone know that our friends over at e90post have a very very comprehensive tracking thread of the Hojin complete with pics and ship location.

Awesome! Thanks for the link. I just got a reply from my CA that my car is in fact on the Hojin. He said it is due to arrive on 4/25.
