Called this morning. Car is still at port (since July 16 now). Dude on phone said it is pretty typical for these cars to sit at the port for around 10 days because the ships can carry around 5000 cars on them.

based on that ill check back with them early to mid next week to see where things are.

Heard the same thing. Not much we can do, but wait. Hopefully we’re both on the water next week.

i call the 800 number, then option 2 i believe. it will then ask you what you want to do. say "vehicle status"

it will then try to get you to input the prod # or vin. at this point hit 0, it will reroute you. wait on the line. someone will answer.

the automated line is the same as the website afaik

That sucks 15 days sitting. Hopefully just behind in the updates and your on the water.

I have also called and spoke to a real person. Not much help. Same info you get from your dealer.

yea its same system dealer can access, but bugging some random on the 800 line is better to me than pestering the CA!

I just got off the phone with them, both of mine arrived at the port on the 9th and are still waiting there ... she said its usually at port 2-4 weeks but could be a little longer with all the Covid slow down.

I want some of the M Performance Parts as well but nobody seems to know when they will be available. They did the release video but the dealers dont have the part lists or availability yet.

What have you heard?

Nobody has pricing yet so I'm not sure, hopefully it's reasonable ... otherwise I'll just pass.

Going for carbon fiber side skirts
M performance carbon fiber Pro spoiler.

I wanted those Installed at port so I can take the car straight to ppf and protection after delivery.

I can always get aftermarket exhaust later for cheaper. Awe vs Remus vs m performance titanium.

I was debating the steering wheel. But heard the alcantara is a b*tch to maintain vs leather in the long run. Also you lose heating function?

awesome! good news!! website still showing at port for me.

if you call the 800 number they should be able to give you the name of the ship you are on. from there you can track it using the marine traffic websites and watch it get to the coast for your side of the country
