Week 42 support Group

My C/A says that my 228 Sport is scheduled for production on 10/20. Any others scheduled for this week?

I was scheduled for week 42 production on my AW M235i, with an estimated production date of last Monday, 10/13. Production was completed on 10/13 and as of a few days ago, my car was at Bremerhaven waiting for a ship, hopefully not for too much longer.

Week 43 not42

So, it looks like I counted weeks wrong. .. I am week 43.
How many days after 10/13 did it take for the BMW Tracking site to reflect that the car was built? I am trying to understand how much lag is in the system.

I think the 800 number was updated by the next afternoon saying that production was completed. The website took a couple more days.

I hope you guys will let me know when your car gets on a ship! I want to see how long that takes. I know the crossing takes 12 days and messing around in port and dealer delivery takes another 5 - 8 days. I need my car on 12/3 for sure.

May be wrong though and get lucky

I am also week 42

Update: My CA just informed me that my car left Bremerhaven on Thursday, 10/23, aboard the YU HENG XIAN FENG. Estimated arrival at Port Hueneme on 11/19. Anyone else make it on?

My production was on the same week as you, was actually completed on the 14th. I hope I made the same boat, no word from my CA yet and the BMW tracking has not updated

Update: My car is now sitting at port and waiting for a ship. Delivery is scheduled for late November. Judging by the schedule of ships leaving from Bremerhaven to Halifax, I think my car will board either Elektra or Faust. I'll be extremely lucky if it manages to board Asian King today, lol.
