2014 C63 507 Has boarded the Vessel

I am super excited, my C63 507 has been loaded on the vessel TOPEKA in BREMERHAVEN, Germany; and is sheduled to arrive in Halifax, Canada on 26-11-2013.

From there, a few more weeks to Toronto, and then I can get rid of this stupid Escalade...which I am gettin 26.1L/100KM...

Once you press that "go" pedal a few times you'll be begging for that kind of mileage. Pic when she arrives. Color choice?

Haha.....your Escalade is worse than my '03 1500 HD at 22L/100km. My car has averaged 14.9l/100km over 21500km. I don't press the go pedal as often or as hard as some on here I guess..LOL.

Hope you got the winter tire package as you will need winter tires as soon as you get it. You can break the car in over the winter ready to go in the spring. It will be a long winter.

Enjoy the 507 you will love it.

PM me your VIN and I can track it on CNRail for you. My e63 is on the same boat. The cars are stopped in Belgium right now. South Hampton next and then across the Atlantic.

This site is better:

http://www.marinetraffic.com/en/ais/...mmsi:232872000


That site only works when it is about 200km from the coast. Once it goes into the atlantic, you have to track it here:

Looks like the ship has been battling a headwind. It isn't going to be in Halifax until Wednesday now.

Do you know how long it typically takes to be loaded on to the train, and the time to Toronto? LOL

I've seen them loaded the same day to having to wait a week. I am hoping they get loaded today. If I understand the information on WW website correctly, there are 426 MB cars that are getting dropped off today in Halifax. That is a big train to bring all those cars in!

Your car is on the train. Irony is that mine hasn't loaded.

Awesome, thanks for the heads up.

My dealer has also contacted me with an updated eta of Dec 16th, and that my winter rims and rubber are going to be mounted on the car once the car gets into Toronto.

Are all the cars being loaded onto the same CN train?

Thanks for the update Benyl, I am hoping to receive the car earlier, but the dealer says they need at least a day to install the 3M Paint Protection film.

Your car has arrived at the Toronto Macmillan yard. Should be unloaded in the next day or so.

My car still hasn't been loaded in Halifax! Lol

Wow that was fast! That sucks, regarding your car still being in Halifax.

Spoke with the dealer, and I can expect delivery next week...sigh a couple more days.

Well thanks for the updates you have posted, it has been much appreciated.
