Ahhh snap... awaiting transport!

stocksure · 01-25-2011, 09:52 AM

My car was completed on the 19th and the lady tells me the same thing, "awaiting a shipping vessel". Last 4 digits are 5643.

Z06M3 · 01-26-2011, 10:02 AM

My last 4 are 5628 and I'm already on a vessel headed towards Panama right now.

xzlnt-
Did you get to port on 1/18, the day you started the thread? Only a week at the port isn't bad, compared to other folks' complaints.

I just got my VIN, last 4 are 5660. How do we use this info to track???

Gentleman tell me if this looks correct, I figured we might want to start our own thread.

looks to me like :

Kibosh
Mr_Yogi
Stocksure - 5643
G-SPQT
TxFeatFan - 3614 (you sure its not 5614?)
PKL - 5660

will all be on the same boat.

My car was week 3 production, finished on the 20th... and partial VIN 5660.

Does this info sound correct?

That looks correct. The first one of us who finds out the name of the ship can start one of those "Roll Call" threads, eh?

My VIN is correct - maybe the Sedans have a different sequence than the Coupes?

PERFECT.

Here's a ship schedule taken from another thread...

Ah, so we may not be on the same ship after all. Since mine needs to go to Charleston, it wouldn't be on the "Tampa" or the "Oberon."

Thanks for the chart - call it if you see it!

I believe I finished production on the 17th and ended up at the port on the 18th. It was rather quick. I'm not complaining

Looks like I'm alone on the boat?

Updated with my last 4!

As of this morning, I am en route to the port!!

It may be that I'm at the port already since my production was scheduled to complete 1/24. So the status delay does seem in line.

stocksure · 01-26-2011, 01:08 PM

Definitely looks like sedans have a different sequence than coupes.

Hoping to make "Tampa"!

Thank you, Mr. Yogi!
Sedans do have a 36-series production number. Cool. I wonder about the E93?

Driver... - Vin# - Port
-------------------------
Kibosh... - 56XX - Takoma?
Mr_Yogi.. - 3623 - Savannah
Stocksure - 5643 - Galveston?
G-SPQT....- ?6XX - New York
TxFeatFan - 3614 - Charleston
PKL...... - 5660 - New York

What is the name of the Port our cars leave from?

Looks like I might be on Tampa or Don Juan!

OK EDIT, clearly I don't know how to read because neither Tampa nor Don Juan stop in NYC, lol.

I guess that would put me on Altantic Conveyor or Torino.

They leave from the port of Bremerhaven, so "Atlantic Conveyor" is out.

Z06M3 · 01-26-2011, 02:35 PM

I feel so lonely...

mr_yogi · 01-26-2011, 02:36 PM

TxFeat,

I'm willing to bet we'll be on the "Fedora" or "Patriot". "Elektra" would be the last (and therefore most unlikely) possibility.

Yep! Next we hope for no damage en-route, so no hold-up at the VPC.

Are you having any mod's installed at the port, Mr. Yogi? The "Performance Exhaust," for example?
