Anyone else on the Drive Green Highway? Scheduled to hit Brunswick, GA on 10/25!

starbai · 10-16-2017, 11:27 AM

Just called genius this morning and they tell me Emilio is on the Drive Green Highway... Left on 10/11 and is scheduled to arrive in Brunswick, GA on 10/25.

Need to start looking at the resources to track the ship. I know its not necessary but its fun! lol

According to MarineTraffic.com: https://www.marinetraffic.com/en/ais...hipid:3888165/

The ship was built in 2016, and is currently hanging out in South Hampton, GB.

Dont see any info on when its expected to leave that Port and if its got any others on its way to Brunswick...

Me! They told me the car was scheduled to arrive at it's destination on the 27th. But I didn't ask exactly where, it's coming to NC though...

We're currently stuck waiting for this storm to blow though I think.

Damn I'm worried bout my car but hopefully they fare through the storms okay.

109mph winds are like a rainy Thursday here in FL, we're use to it. (joking).

I'm waiting on Bosporus Highway to shows it's face at the port... eta 11/3.

11/3 not so bad!

Honestly 2.5 weeks, 2000 miles with it in Europe really was a damn tease.... I think I would have felt less anxious having had to just wait to 12/1 to begin with. lol

But at least I know he's on his way

We only did one week and after we dropped it off we were depressed for a while.

How long does it take between dropping it off and on the ship? I dropped mine off on Friday. Its only been a few days and im already missing it!

I dropped mine off on Friday as well but in Zurich. Spoke to BMW Genius and they say it is in transit to the port now and if I call back in a few days it should be at the port and we will have a better idea of what ship it will get on.

Glad you got some decent miles in though!

(2300mi for mine)

Dropped off on 10/5, delivery 11/3 not too bad, but now that I decided to track and refresh the ship every hour... this will truly be the longest month.

Dang, you're done already? That went by quick. I'm sure even more so for you.

M3 as we all know it is superior to the M4. I like the idea of the CS but I need the car to be more of a complete package and actually have a center counsel etc as it will be my new DD. I will have to wait and see how the pricing shakes out

starbai · 10-18-2017, 08:16 AM

I'll vote Tanzanite. Color is just absolutely gorgeous in person.

But I'm biased

Wonder why it says Baltimore if BMW said it was going to Brunswick? Maybe that changed due to the storms?
