Build week 10 "at the port"

Hi,

Anyone else stuck at the port coming to Balpoa? My x2 has been sitting at the port since the 9th. Genius keeps giving me the standard, "it can take 4-6 weeks for delivery, keep checking the site for updates" (We all know the tracker does not update as it should), and they don't know which port its sitting at.

Just curious if anyone else is "at the port"

I don't know. When I asked Genius which port its at, they say they don't have the information, other than its at a port.

IKR! They're basically saying, the car left the factory and we don't know which port its at, until it gets assigned to a vessel. I could understand if they said, the car sits in a holding space/garage/lot until assigned to vessel. But to say it's at a port and not know which one is baffling....lol

Mine cleared the Panama Canal last weekend. My CA thinks it will be here by the 15th. She’s an optimist 🤣

Ha! Mine is scheduled to be here by the 16th. My CA says I should be able to pick it up before the end of the month. We'll see.
