Who's on "Fremantle Highway" (Arrives @ Brunswick on 6/27)

SweetDee · 06-17-2014, 08:32 AM

Anyone else on the Fremantle Highway? It set out of Bremmerhaven yesterday, hit Southampton today and is set to port in Brunswick (GA) on 6/27.

BTW if anyone knows how to pull the VINs on this vessel I would be forever in your debt.

I cannot wait!

I am on the same ship. I tried to pull the VIN's and could not figure it out. Are you doing PCD?

As of now I am but that all depends on how quickly my dealership would be able to get ahold of the car. If they can get it delivered to the dealership in early July vs late July/early August then I might nix the performance center delivery. I've been without a car for a month and it's driving me nuts.

Enter the first seven digits of the model VIN you're looking for (228i: WBA1F5C, M235i: WBA1J7C) followed by a '%' sign in the cargo ID field. That will pull all cargo IDs that begin with that VIN. In the search results will be the booking ID as well.

I would give more specifics but their website appears to be down at the moment.

Thanks. What's the URL?

Yeah, I'm not finding a way to pull these VINs either.

Interesting that your car is coming to Charleston instead of Brunswick, GA. Mine was delivered to Brunswick and then the ship went to Charleston to pick up all the exports (X3's,X5's and X6's the same day). I thought Charleston was just for export now.

I made the assumption that Fremantle Highway was operated by Wallenius Wilhelmsen Logistics, which it's not. That's the only site that appears to be user friendly enough for a genius like me to track my VIN.

You actually are probably right. I can't remember if Charleston was something that Customer Relations told me or if I just pulled it out of my arse...either way I just wish there was a way to pull and confirm the VINs. It appears the Fremantle Highway is operated by K-Line.

I'm also on Fremantle Highway. I spoke with customer relations today. They advised that my car is going to Brunswick, GA and should arrive there on 6/27

Sweet! They told me 6/30 yesterday. They must know that we want our cars so they turned on the afterburners to get them here 3 days faster. I'll take it!

Yea, they've been great there. The only M235i I've seen with them was silver and was gone that day.

That was mine, silver with coral red and manual. I got the second one they sold, they sold a EB with automatic that was their original demo car but it was gone when I went to see it.

That's awesome. What have you done to yours yet? I'm interested in coding.

I have not done anything but am considering JB4. I had a tune on my E93 N54 engine.

SweetDee · 06-19-2014, 02:47 PM

I just got an amazing call. They were able to move my PCD up to July 21st. Definitely going to do it now. I just got my confirmation from BMWNA. Anyone taking PCD that day?

They moved me to July 25th from August 8th, I want the 18th but was told to wait until the car clears customs and is on the transport. I would love the 21st, I just have to drive 1000 miles after and my wife cannot take that much time off work!

I have been looking into just the stage 1. Don't really know of any real differences btw that and the JB4 but also curious what Dinan releases.

SweetDee · 06-24-2014, 07:42 PM

Fremantle Highway went stealth...tracking hasn't updated since the 19th.

This wait is killing me. PCD was moved up to July 21st which still feels forever away. Anyone taking delivery with me?

mikeyymonster · 06-25-2014, 12:22 AM

Do they just hold onto your car from the time it arrives to when you arrive for PCD?
