Ugh. Bummer man. Mine is on the "Hestia Leader" and left Bremerhaven yesterday.

Still at port here. But, my E63 lease ends mid May so I fine as I do not want the car before May 15th. All good!

Hopefully yours doesn’t sit as long as mine, but with transit times you’ll probably get yours around mid May so timing will work out.

Mine shipping now is only half the battle. I expect a lengthy wait at the vpc in addition to scheduling a pcd date. But at least it’ll be stateside!

Mine landed in the US late last night, no port installed options for me, so hopefully a short stop at the VPC. I’m ready to get the ball rolling on scheduling the PCD so I will have the finish line in sight. Good to hear yours are on the water.

Mine is getting the exhaust, I guess that means a VPC stop? Hopefully the timing is just right so I can milk every penny from my AMG lease.

Nice let me know how pcd scheduling goes. My CA told me they will give you a list of dates to choose from but they have been limited/pushed out due to covid.

Yup, it will get installed at the vpc so some delay but probably minimal. I have a lot of accessories being installed too so I am curious to see how long it will take.

The Polaris Highway docked at Galveston Sunday 4/11 at 5 PM. The status today shows the car is at the dealership - WTF.

Of course, not a peep from my CA till texted him saying "Dude, do you have some news for me"?

Too busy to pick up during the weekdays so I'll shoot for a Saturday delivery. I am low maintenance - only thing he has to do is not mess up the car paint and put in the hard wiring for my Valentine.

So a recap of my timing:

- Build finished 3/15; shipped to port
- Sat at the port for 9 freaking days
- Polaris Highway departed on 3/24
- Scheduled arrival was 4/10 but delayed. For some reason ship slowed down to a crawl in the middle of the Atlantic
- Arrived in Galveston 4/11
- At the dealership 4/13

Happy to hear you almost have your car! My car was at the port for 12 days, so I feel your pain.

Got my first request for scheduling PCD dates today. The first available opening was May 19th with May 20-21 and May 27-28 already being fully booked. At this point based on school schedules (taking my son with me) it looks like I'm shooting for a 5/26 PCD Playday. Fingers crossed, the finish line is in sight!

Since others have posted their order timelines, here's mine:

Ordered 3/2 with the intent that it was a WK18 Build
3/5 Production Scheduled
3/9 Entered Production
3/17 Exterior Body/Paint
COVID, no clue on timeline for about 2 weeks
3/29 Car at port
4/2 Sailed
4/11 Arrived in the US

Finalizing PCD pickup for late May (tentatively May 26th)

Car was a standard build, no individual specification.

Confirmed PCD on 5/26. 41 more days. That’s as long as it took to build and get the car to the US. The new wait begins.
