So I got mad, and put the full single pay lease amount as my deposit. Lol, then the car magically turned status 112 (whoda thunk)

Of course it did (magically!)
I had no idea there was such a thing as a single pay lease option or a MT available in the M6? I hope I get to see your ride someday as your build sounds flat out awesome.

There was an update on location over the weekend Sat 7/25 as it passed by the Azores Islands.

Nope. But there are location updates when its near land. This updare was probally relayed by the azores islands. I thought about subscribing for sat updates but i alway forget to cancel free trials.

Our next free update should be when the ship passes the dominican republic i think.

The NYK route map shows it stopping in Puerto Rico so it should be back in a coverage area in the next day or so.

Capricornus Leader isn't stopping in puerto rico. We are going straight to canal then to sd and on to port hueneme. One of the more direct ships with less port calls

Might be a week before we will get an update. Panama canal transit is scheduled for august 3rd. And i'm assuming about 1-2 days from the caribbeans to panama. So our next free update should be around 7/31 ~ 8/2

After panama our next free update is when the ship gets close to baja .

Awesome work! I didn't see that schedule. Nice.

I'm itching bad for my new car. I even check maritime traffic first thing in the morning daily. Just didn't have access to a computer over the weekend to grab a screen shot to post it up.

I had an A7 with an APR stage 2 tune, which I sold when I ordered my M4. Now I'm driving my Rx8 which was supposed to be my fun car, but not too happy commuting to work with it.

What did everyone else here do? are you keeping your current car until your new one arrives?

If not what are you driving in the mean time?

What car are you coming from?

Nothing exiting here. Bought a Chevy Avalanche in 2008 to tow my go kart trailer and have been driving it ever since. Looking forward to finally getting back to having a fun daily driver instead of a practical one.

Hi everyone, glad I found this thread! You're right about time seeming to stop while waiting. My M4 is also on Capricornus Leader. Only ordered it June 26, so this is happening much quicker than I expected, but it's still too long!

Here's the build sheet for mine.

I currently have a 335i as my fun car and a 01 RX300 as my daily, trying to get rid of my of 335 before my M3 gets here.

For those who want to stalk the boat.

Our boat is passing the pedro miguel locks right now, the next set of locks and last will be the miraflores locks.

So hopefully it will be on camera in the next 1-2 hours?

[ricerx1]

Our cars are on that boat. If you squint maybe you can see your car... or not..

Here's one last pic of her before she hits the Pacific Ocean.
