My car hit the port in NYC 6/26 8:00 I realize it has to go to the prep center and than be shipped to my dealer (Richmond, VA) Is it safe to assume it will be ready for pickup for 7/9/05? My dealer said they are shipping cars quicker that are marked "SOLD" as mine is marked "SOLD". Any thoughts/experience is appreciated. |

My dealer said the same thing - about the expedited process for sold cars. Mine arrived in port 6/25 0700 hours - that was the time it gave me for "DISPATCHED", so I'm assuming it's off in the VPC. I've read on here that rule of thumb is 1-2 weeks, but from what I've been reading as far as customer experiences lately...it's been as little as a few days. Here's to hoping...

Yeah I'm hoping but at the same time I need a flight down to Richmond VA from NJ, so I'm trying to book in advance so I'm not paying $350+ for a flight. Right now it's $177, last week it was $132 so I want to make a move.
I call the dealer but they seem to be clueless.
If anyone is interested in why in the world I got a car from VA when I live in NJ is because I work for a corporate automotive company and got the car for INVOICE, because my company owns that dealer. VA is our closest dealer that we own.
So I'm thinking 7/9/05 is a safe bet? Again anyone with experience on this please shed some light....

My 330i took three days from the boat's arrival to arrive at my dealer in Baltmore, MD. My sister's 330i arrived at 7:00 on 6/25 on the Morning Sapphire. I believe generally it is 3-5 days for Priority 1 (sold cars) unless there is a back up at VPC.

Any thoughts/experience is appreciated. | Why did your car arrive at the NY/NJ VPC if you live in VA? I would think Baltimore, MD would have been the appropriate port.
Just curious....JL
