looks like the Torrens ship is a late by a few days than originally scheduled

[DargZ]

Bummer, the date moved from the 21st to the 23rd and now the 25th. Tracking the ship online shows that the path was not direct to Halifax. Perhaps the ports were crowded or there was rough seas, hence the delay.

update on Torrens

Looks like the dates are moved up. Torrens is currently docked in Halifax with NY arrival on the 24th.

Cool link. I guess pick up from the dealer next Monday or Tuesday would be expected if there are no deviations from the schedule.

My car is waiting at the port in Germany for two weeks now......
I am hoping to see it in late May at the latest in California...

My car has been at the port since last week and that has seemed like an eternity.... I've even stopped calling everyday because of the disappointment of them saying it is waiting for a ship!

[DargZ]

Same here but I have no idea how guys in California can track their cars for so long. It would drive me insane waiting for it.

My car has been there about the same amount of time. I'm really hoping I'll be on the Morning Courier leaving tomorrow and getting into Port Hueneme on May 15th.

I just sold my car last night, so it's going to be a tough month of living in LA without a car.

Torrens left Halifax and is on the way to NJ!

[bimmercar]

[Damasko]

Thanks guys for the support!!

It looks like some of our cars are going to be on same carrier traveling together across Atlantic!!!

Called 800 number and spoke to representative and still not assigned to a carrier.......

I have bought extra stock kidney grill to play off of ebay about two weeks ago.

from what I read, the VPC only works 6am-2pm M-F, no weekends. I wonder how long now till it arrives at dealer????

My dealer told me 5 - 14 days after it reaches port. Hoping to take delivery at the end of next week.

can't wait, hope VPC opens on Saturday and processes all our delayed cars!

My dealer just told me that the car will be leaving the port today and should be at the dealership today or tomorrow.

Just got the call that my car is available for pickup.
