Awesome! Looks like we have similar cars, except I got the 6MT and Bamboo interior.

blittle887 · 01-19-2011, 10:11 PM

Golffrr, I can't wait until I get the phone call from Ryan telling me the car is at Steve Thomas BMW.

GOLFFRR · 01-19-2011, 10:22 PM

It will be here before you know it! then you can really enjoy it! I am excited for you

geneatals · 01-19-2011, 10:42 PM

GOLFFRR · 01-19-2011, 10:46 PM

GOLFFRR · 01-19-2011, 10:56 PM

just make sure your car doesn't sink the boat ok! we have a lot of cars on that boat! haha

blittle887 · 01-19-2011, 11:10 PM

I think you will be first as well. I did ED and I heard it takes longer to get through customs?

Don't say that Jimmy, I've had good luck so far.

. I don't think I could wait for a new car to be delivered.

GOLFFRR · 01-19-2011, 11:14 PM

^^that is correct

but Hey you got Ryan on your side and the port is right down the road from the dealership so your M will be here in no time!

I don't think my wife could take the delivery of a new car, I'm driving her crazy with this one.

I already told her that we're taking off work as soon as Ryan calls me.

geneatals · 01-20-2011, 09:53 AM

from what I've read, ED cars do take a bit more time to get thru the VPC...

wonder if there's anyone else from here on the Tomar...

geneatals · 01-27-2011, 05:19 PM

got a few more days until she gets to the canal...

maybe we'll catch her going thru the locks on the 31st...

Getting close Gene, hang in there!! It's been a long, strange trip for you and your car...

blittle887 · 01-27-2011, 08:16 PM

Well Gene, we have less than 2 weeks now until our cars reach Port Hueneme.

I guess we have to watch for the Tomar to pass through the Panama Canal. By the way what dealer did you buy your car through? It's been a long tough road, but it's almost over. Even tougher as I got to experience the M3 on the Autobahn and then wait an additional 8-10 weeks for redelivery.
