I'm praising the Glorious Leader, anyone else?

Called the BMW Genius today to see if the M240i (I ordered in January) was still sitting at the dock at Bremerhaven, which it has been since April:

"No it's aboard a shipping vessel and on it's way"
"Can you tell me the name of the ship?"
"Glorious Leader"
"Um, Glorious Leader??"
"Yeah I know it sounds like it's from North Korea"

Anyone else have a West Coast bound car that might be shipping buddies on The Glorious Leader?

Here's hoping the secret service doesn't pay you a visit before your car arrives! Big brother is always watching

My F82 was shipped on the same vessel, MV Glorious Leader, Bremerhaven to Port Newark, January '16. Looks like BMW uses that ship frequently. Interestingly, data regarding owner, builder, country of origin etc. are all locked out information. We are, however, allowed to know that the country of registration is the Bahamas. Commies work cheap.
