Production Started!!!!!!
So, as many know i am faving my current car replaced with a 335 msport estoril blue/black
I was scheduled for week 37 production, i thought my car would begin production sep 10th but im please to learn it started today. The estimated completion date is sep 14. Anyone know how long it takes from completion date to get to the port? And also, how long does it take for the boat to get from germany to georgia? the WW site says estimated days at sea are 19 but that seems like a lot, any one know? Cant fucking wait, they are installing performance exhuast at the port so that will probably take an extra day or 2. Im thinking if im lucky i get the car around oct 7-10, if i have to wait for the next boat(there is a boat that leave 9/19 and one that leaves 9/26) then probably wont get the car till oct 18-20 Woot woot

Congratulations! Mine is supposed to be completed tomorrow so I know the excitement
The boats are VERY slow in BMW 335 terms So the estimates on the WW site are probably right. Search around the forums here, there's a post called "Post your times" or something that gives you a good idea of how long the steps are taking some people.

In my past experiences, as well as this current one (at port waiting for ship now) its been 2-3 days from completion to port. |

I'm probably in the same boat (literally) 335i Msport 9/14 production completion estimate. I'm in NY so hopefully the time from Jersey to here is only a few days.

nice man, i am have also read that the computer and 1800 number could be aday or 2 behind so that would be even better. you must be week 37 production also which is sep10-16, not sure if that meant when the production would start or end. i really hope we catch that boat on sep 19. or we might have to wait till the 26.

Mine started production on 9/3. estimated completion date 9/11. We will most likely be on the same boat.

Sweet!!!! Hopefully they are on the same boat(leaving the 19th). My conservative estimation of delivery is 3rd week of october, hoping it happens the 2nd week tho.
If yours is completed on the 11th i def think you will make the boat on the 19th. mine is supposed to be completed on the 14th, i think i will be cutting it close especially if there are cars at the dock ahead of mine and waiting.

So my estimated completion date is 9/14. Called the 1800 number and it said my car was awaiting a vessel at the port.
I hope this is true and it was made early. Also hoping I make it on the boat leaving 9/16 or 9/19. Very excited.

Very nice to get there ahead of time! Good luck!
The 800 number still shows mine to be on it's way to port. Keeping my fingers crossed that it's already there and going to be on the boat leaving tomorrow!

any boats leaving sooner than 9/16?
turns out there is a ship called the toronto leaving 9/13. I really hope my car can be on that boat. That boat is scheduled to arrive in GA 10/1, they would install the exhaust and grills at the port and my car would probably be here a few days later. If i did catch the toronto, i think i would get my cat like 10/8-10/11
