They will hold the car for 3 months. You have flexibility in scheduling. You set a delivery time when it arrives in the US.

You can request a different date, but “availability is limited” you’ll have to settle for what they give you.

Is this the beginning of a new obsessive/ compulsive behavior pattern or have you always been like this?

Lol. I'm always like that. Will order something exciting online and track the package like I'm tracking a fugitive or something

You think you are OCD now? Wait till it gets on the boat and you start watching that thing chug across the ocean. Ugh, 17knots! Do you know how slow that is?!?
It’s like watching a snail walk cross country.
But I can’t stop checking the ships position at least a dozen times a day.

How can you figure out what boat it's on?

I've ordered several BMWs and never tracked any of them, just waited for a phone call. That's more fun to me!

All of ours were picked up in Germany so we knew exactly where they were the whole time. We are sad we don’t get to go to Europe for the Z4, the P-car option was tempting for that reason alone.

No way i could do this. I checked status several times a day, then closely watched the entire ship trip across the Atlantic lol. It was an obsession.
