Ordered mine on the same day! But I was given a production number...and found out today that production started on 3 April. So excited. Keeping my fingers crossed that you get some clarity - and a production number!

Found more information!
Looks like mine went into the body shop just about the same time as yours! So I'm thinking we will be traveling together. Lol. My completion date is still on track for tomorrow. Said shouldn't have a problem getting down to the docks by Friday or Saturday. Only thing I'm confused about is the shipping. I'm not sure I'll have to wait till the 24th(unless theres no ship going out till then), since my ship would just be coming to NY (NJ rather). I guess I'll have to take a look to see what my options are ship wise. Now things are getting exciting knowing I'm finally moving!

(And others not able to find their cars on the WW cargo site and sitting at dock waiting transport to west cost)
I did some research today and found an NYK Car Carrier that is two hours behind the Tomar and it will arrive in Southampton on Friday. It will then stop in San Diego first and then on to Port "Why nee me" a day or two behind Tomar
Themis Leader is the other ship. There is no site for NYK so we all may have to wait to know for sure.
Themis Leader just left "BimmerHaven" so your CM may be onboard
Hey wry_martini! I believe we ordered on the same date from the same dealership. Did you confirm your car is on or slated for the Tomar? I'm trying not to curl up in the fetal position and have a full meltdown. Buffy has been sitting on the dock in Bremerhaven since late March and I could not pull up my VIN number on the cargo list for the Tomar. My MA is also having difficulty ascertaining my MINIs whereabouts... Oh, the agony!!
Hope you're having better luck than I am!

Nope, I haven't been able to get confirmation from my MA, but that's not surprising, I haven't been able to get much from him. I'll try tomorrow and see what I can find out.
Shame on me, but I was going on hopeful assumption that she'd be on the Tomar . . .
CaMINIGirl, I thought for sure you'd have your car by now!

DREAMS REALLY DO COME TRUE! My new Coupe, Veruca, is all tucked in next to Elvis (the wife's Justa). Sorry for the crappy picture, it's been a long day. I'll do a proper photo shoot soon and a full post. I love this car so much. The 1200 mile break-in period is going to be so hard...
