Fear not, *Satellite AIS tracking is here! Happy 4th!

*Tracking information has a 6-12 hour delay. So her position is slightly ahead of what is shown.

Cheers!

Very nice. I see Marine Traffic has a similar deal to fleetmon. Have fun with that!

Welcome!

So looks like we have an m4, m5, and m6 heading this way!

Where's the m3 to complete the group?!

Nice!!! No idea how you did that, but I'm officially counting on you for updates these next 9 days or so

Happy 4th as well!

Marine Traffic has a 7 day trial for full membership with satellite tracking. And then FleetMon has a 14 day trial for the same deal. Total 21 day free trial should cover us up until PH.

I just need to remember to cancel my trial on time or I'll end up with two fleet tracking memberships

lol

Oh nice! If for any it goes past the time frame- I'll step up next and sign up to ensure at least one of us has the most update information

Lol Jesus Christ please tell me you're just getting home and checking on it- and not waking up randomly to see.

I'm currently in Sydney right now so it's 7:37 pm here

Mr.SugarSkulls · 07-05-2015, 04:39 AM

Eesh..that's so far away still.

Wait, I remember your car finished production before mine since Memorial Day Weekend. I was on vacation in Florida and I remember reading that thread. WTF!!, It took them over a month to get you on a ship, smh, I can only imagine the frustration you must feel. My individual m3 finished production on 06/08, loaded on a vessel 06/12 and arrived in NY on 07/03. I'm still in shock brotha, hang in there as it crosses the Atlantic, it's a grueling SLOW process.

It was in the quality check for two weeks! I couldn't figure out for the life of me what the heck was going on, and the people at the 800 number couldn't either.

But that time frame from end of May- middle of June was INCREDIBLY frustrating because I felt like my car was just forgotten about/disappeared.

5 months later since order submitted- thank the heavens she's only 2 and a half weeks away. It doesn't help that being on the west coast there aren't as many ships that come out this way.

And that is awesome man!!! What specs did you order again? I'm glad you didn't have to go through this madness I did, but I'm sure regardless- it will be worth it for the both of us the moment we drive off with our cars.

The Individual Process had me scratching my head too. BMWNA is always in the dark about what's going on and they know me as soon as I call. So far they have sent me a complimentary M Shirt, Keychain, Plate Frame and all I want is my car.

I ordered a San Marino Blue M3 w/ executive, lighting, DCT, adaptive suspension, extended leather, HK... I placed my order back in early February so this week makes a 5 full months of waiting. I see my ///M in my sleep and think about her constantly. Now she's literally 20 miles from my home sitting on a shipping dock waiting for customs and VPC to do their thing.

In the end, we'll have very rare colors and the individuality will be worth the wait!

That sounds awesome! I've only seen San Marino blue on an m6 GC (in the sun) and mannnn does that blue look STUNNING. I can't wait to see how yours turns out. (Oh and nice job on the lighting package- definitely like the added look it gives)

I'm seriously stoked for my car. Luckily I'll be on vacation when it finally does arrive so nothing will stand in my way from picking it up immediately once available. I plan to do a "list of places to go" the first day I have it since it'll be first thing in the AM

It's seriously hit or miss.

At least for the 3 of us who have had to wait longer than usual, if we order again, at least we know it can't be worse (barring a ship sinking haha)

But we're still not in the clear yet! Let's hope everything on the VPC on our side of the states goes smoothly so we can get our cars within a few days of each other

Mr.SugarSkulls · 07-05-2015, 11:46 PM

@utsavized

Any update?!

wazzza · 07-05-2015, 11:50 PM

MarineTraffic has horrible history tracking with Satellite. Had to fire up Photoshop, haha. Will overlay each day's updated position on this image going forward so we can track history of positions as well

Also, seems like she hasn't moved much by looking at the image, but that's because most of the movement in the past day has been latitudinal, not to mention, the last update from the AIS was almost 8 hours ago

I noticed that too comparing the pictures (I'm saving each one in its own specific album)

Considering its not scheduled to get to panama for another week at least, i dont think we'll see the speed it's used when in Europe.

I'd hope not. The last thing we need is for any of the cars to get damaged
