My guess would be "no" but you never know. It depends on a lot of factors, but my recent-ish experience:

4/7 - completed production (thursday)
4/12 - at the port (maybe the weekend slows it down?)
4/20 - on a ship

Do Ohio orders go through the NY/NJ port? If not, it might be Baltimore which could put you on a K-Line ship, too.

Good luck.

Timeline so far

5/7--start build
5/13--complete build
5/18--at port waiting for ship

2 ships this week

Independence II --leaves today 5/18
TONSBERG --leaves tomorrow 5/19

Maybe I'll get on one of them!!!

Otello leaves tomorrow (19th). Go to the WW website and input your VIN. Should tell you want ship it'll be on and when it should arrive in the US if it's on a Wallenius Wilhelmsen boat.

different ships

How do you get more specific tracking details like knowing it's at the port waiting for a ship?

My car finished production on 5/12, so presumably if yours finished 5/13 they should be close to each other.

My CA (client advisor) at the dealership has the info. Just call him/her and ask

Does anybody know the meaning of 'en-route' on the bmwusa website?
does this mean it made it on a boat already or just waiting for one?
also, is the status code for 'en-route' 195?

thevex67 · 05-21-2011, 08:33 AM

I believe enroute means it's on a ship!

My car still is at port per my CA and the 1-800 #.

Next boat to Baltimore is the TAMPA leaving 5/27 and arriving 6/8

Hope my M3 gets a ticket to ride!!!
