Officially at 4 weeks at the receiving center in Baltimore, RAM issue still open.

Do they have to tell you if there was damage in transit? Not getting the B&W is one thing, but I'd really prefer a car without body damage too.

Yes they have to tell you, anything over 3% surface is not sellable to customer so it'll go to auction

That's a real bummer, especially after the tedious wait. Sorry to hear.

Yeah... they said they'll try to expedite another one for me... I wonder if they're gonna do anything else considering the wait lol... and I wonder if they have some spare B&W laying around if not I'll have to cancel completely...

For those still waiting and checking my garage status..just to let you know my status still shows “at port” but the dealer has sent me a screenshot showing that it is on a carrier being delivered today.

Yeah I've been showing at port for well over a week. My CA sent me a screen shot of their system and mine is at Greenville VPC - I'm taking performance center delivery, so definitely not "at port".

I'm told I should expect an email next week from the PC to schedule my delivery.

I’d imagine BMW wants to do all they can to get these higher margin cars out the door before the end of the year too.

Reading through these and seeing some folks have only had their car wait at port for 3 weeks is odd to me. Mine has been at the Baltimore port since 10/18 waiting on RAM. Perhaps the Charleston port has been quicker to retrofit vs the Baltimore port? Status is still "open" so I know there's not a delay on the tracking website. Mine also has B&W and my order was placed well before it was announced B&W wouldn't be available anymore.

We're probably right next to one another. 10/22 for mine.. B&W was ordered but it seems it was removed during the build. does yours still show it in the tracker?

One of the port statuses is leaving Germany. Then it says “bon voyage” and then the next at port means it’s here in the U.S. somewhere.

You gotta be close considering the timing of when both of our orders went in. Mygarage did update this morning to in transit to dealer status but the dealer had that notification last week so their is a lag in updates for sure.

My RAM stop sale just closed this morning at NJ port. Today marks day 14 at the port. Better than I expected.

Yes, my build still has the B&W included in the tracker. I asked my dealer if they knew anything and all he could tell me was BMW is prioritizing sold vehicles…. But still going on a month at port now.

Im at port since 11/8 with the same issue. Some people got their cars before me and they hit the port after me, doesn't make sense. Which port is the car located?

Makes no sense, but it seems the Baltimore port is the slowest.
