How did you see if you're on that ship?

ChrisK · 10-04-2016, 02:50 PM

Go here: https://www.2wglobal.com/
Click on the "Track and Trace" link/image.
Enter your VIN# into the Cargo ID field.
Click Track.

This only works of course if your car is done, and it has been assigned a ship.

Are you sure that's the ship that left today? My vin isn't showing up and I'm hoping it's a delay but I thought only the Tortugas was leaving from that port

That's pretty cool, my M2 is on there as well, better batten down the hatches for that Hurricane!

It shouldn't be an issue (fingers crossed). That ship will take 10 days to get to NY.

It is odd that in the schedules of the site it only showed the Tortugas as departing today. I didn't see this ship. It looks like our cars will likely be on the same boat, whatever that may be...

The tracking data on their site is always behind a few days.

My production finished on the 09/23. It got to the port on the 27th I believe. Since then, its just been sitting there. I think I've missed about 2-3 ships in that time

QM · 10-04-2016, 07:46 PM

I'm on TOPEKA as well.

We could be in the same batch. Mine's also a LBB DCT

serrated · 10-05-2016, 02:38 AM

My Week37 AlpineWhite M-DCT +Exec just changed to "En-route to the US", so I think mine is on this boat. (too lazy to call)

So I guess that means I'm ~2 weeks out?

rjn · 10-05-2016, 02:02 PM

I'm on it as well. Week 38 build completed 9/26

If you log on to my BMW and join, you can follow the production and shipping of your car with the VIN, it's a day or two behind but it works.
