Where do e63's come from?
Sort of joking with the title of the thread....kind of. My guy just told me car will be in port on the 29th. Wondering if all of them come into Baltimore, then are trucked throughout the country. Anyone?

Depends where you're located. Since I see that you're in Santa Barbara, CA it will come into Long Beach. So the way the boat works is it'll leave Bremerhaven, Germany then makes a couple stops in Europe before going across the Atlantic. For East Coasters the port is Baltimore. For West Coasters we have to wait a little longer as the boat makes more stops, goes through the Panama Canal, before making its way back up to Long Beach. The car then gets trucked from the VPC in Long Beach to the dealer.

My car sat in Long Beach for 11 days after being unloaded clearing customs and waiting to be assigned a truck and getting loaded. Another week dropping off inventory along the way north to my dealer which was at the end of the line in Bellingham, WA. not far from the Canadian border.
