Another 2018 Yas Marina Blue M3 Comp Package Ordered

///My5UV · 02-13-2018, 08:28 AM

Finally headed out to sea. Two days behind schedule but maybe they'll find a favorable current to make up some time!

jmr0311 · 02-13-2018, 09:21 AM

God spead! I'm praying.

///My5UV · 02-13-2018, 07:47 PM

It's heading into the Atlantic at nearly 15 knots, bound for Jacksonville...

///My5UV · 02-14-2018, 07:42 PM

Hmm... According to my CA my car is still at the port. So I guess I'm waiting for the Freedom to get in to BRE on Sunday.

Sorry to hear that. It would have being cool if our M's were sharing a ride in the Bosporus HWY.

///My5UV · 02-14-2018, 08:49 PM

Given your car was at port like a week and a half before mine it was going to be a stretch.
For a day there I thought I might get the new car in time for a road trip, but now I get one more run in "stealth silver" before my next trip will be in "hey, look at how fast I'm going blue".

EstrlM3 · 02-15-2018, 04:19 PM

Mine is being loaded up on Porgy right now, fingers crossed.

jmr0311 · 02-15-2018, 05:56 PM

Awesome!

///My5UV · 02-15-2018, 06:47 PM

Meanwhile Freedom has left Antwerp and should be able to pick up my M3 on Sunday.

titan7 · 02-16-2018, 10:48 AM

well we missed the Porgy, what are the names of the West Coast boats leaving next week?

Do you know your arrival port?
You can check the WW schedule here:

titan7 · 02-16-2018, 12:00 PM

yes, Port Hueneme.

Looks like the Porgy leaves tomorrow 2/17 but according to BMW, we are still in port. So I am thinking we will hopefully be on the Tombarra which leaves on 2/23.

///My5UV · 02-16-2018, 01:29 PM

My understanding is it shows you in port for a day or two until after the ship sails. So there's no reason you couldn't still make Porgy.

That would be great!! I will check back on Monday.

jmr0311 · 02-16-2018, 04:48 PM

Here is where my YMB M3 is in its journey through the Atlantic. It's getting closer

///My5UV · 02-16-2018, 09:03 PM

Meanwhile Porgy is on the way to the west coast and Freedom is in dock ready to load cars for the east coast.

So exciting!!

///My5UV · 02-17-2018, 12:29 PM

Actually Porgy has a stop at Zeebrugge, Brussels on the way to the Atlantic

titan7 · 02-17-2018, 01:16 PM

When would our VIN # show up on the Porgy? Just want to see if it made it.

///My5UV · 02-17-2018, 01:20 PM

I don’t think W&W does VIN tracking anymore but I’d bet on Monday genius will show it.

Sharp_Cai · 02-18-2018, 07:25 PM

my car is loaded on Grand Hero which currently at Baltimore. ETA 03/03 at CA

titan7 · 02-19-2018, 01:35 PM

Called again today, still in port awaiting a ship, so looks like we missed the Porgy and will hope to make the Tombarra which leaves on Friday 2/23. That sucks, it's been sitting there since 2/8, lol!
