Hopefully no damage from transit needed to be repaired.

Does anyone know about the major hail storm in Munich? My M5 has been in the "at the port" stage for a couple weeks now and apparently there was a huge storm June 10th that damaged 4,000 new BMWs awaiting to be transported.

Unless you did ED there would be no reason that your M5 would be in Munich. It's built in Dingolfing which is 60 miles North East of Munich.

Thanks! That makes me feel better and confirm I'm just impatient.

ETA for my car in port is 14 days. I have a bunch of CF trim going on once at the VPC. I was told that BMW is close to releasing option for CF mirror caps for the F90. Europe has had the option for some time...

I'm thinking I have 14 days to residualize the option into my lease if it was in fact available. I remember reading on here that CA could add port installed options up until vehicle arrival at VPC. Anyone have any insight ?

I did European Delivery of my M5 in May. Dropped the car off on May 12th in Munich and for some reason the car never left Munich. I originally got info from the shipping company that it was to leave Bremerhaven on 5/26 but apparently that never happened. For about a week no-one could tell me where the car was. Now my dealer can't tell me if the car was in the area affected by the hail storm. My concern is that if it was damaged that I have no choice to refuse the car as I've already put 1600 miles on it and signed my lease paperwork in late April.

It is so frustrating to not know what is going on. I've been buying BMWs from the same dealer for 20 years. It seems that BMW is having lots of logistic issues lately. This might be my last BMW.

Really sorry for this horrible mess. Hope things can turn out for you to some sort of resolution.

And now it's showing as "at the dealer" so it must have been on the boat the past two weeks while it was in the "at the port" status. Anyone else this close to receiving theirs?!
