Any word on FIDELIO?

48Laws · 12-18-2010, 10:00 AM

Yup. She's only about 20-30 miles from Bayonne, berth 1419.

Perhaps I can take a quick drive over near the water and get a pic of the ship as it passes.

I agree -- it has not docked yet. Here's an update from the last few minutes:

48Laws · 12-18-2010, 10:11 AM

But it's scheduled to be unloaded at 1pm. I saw the work order.

BimmerM · 12-18-2010, 10:12 AM

Yup, there's a lot of traffic there. Those other ships / boats better move out of the way and make room!!!

jmnj · 12-18-2010, 10:31 AM

anyone know, once a car leaves the VPC, how long it takes to get to JMK in springfield nj?

BimmerM · 12-18-2010, 11:22 AM

I can see the ship now. The tracking site is definitely faster than the actual ship.

BimmerM · 12-18-2010, 11:34 AM

I take that back. The tracking site is fairly accurate. Too bad can't get a clear shot as it's a bit hazy out there. I might need to drive to a different spot. Perhaps under the bridge.

Would love to have a photo! That's awesome!

BimmerM · 12-18-2010, 12:24 PM

Wow, I had to chase this thing. It was really moving and actually beat me past the bridge!! LOL.

Here's the pic taken shortly before 1pm.

48Laws · 12-18-2010, 12:33 PM

Oh, yeah. They really go. Relatively light considering all they really carry are cars etc.

dimabimmer · 12-18-2010, 12:39 PM

Here... I took these shortly after 1:00 PM Saturday 12/18/10... Fidelio is surely in

BimmerM · 12-18-2010, 12:56 PM

This little fellow was waiting alongside me while the ship was sailing past Far Rockaway.

Maybe that or perhaps he wanted to poop on my car.

48Laws · 12-18-2010, 01:03 PM

Told my girlfriend me and dozens of other guys I've never met have been tracking our cars for weeks together. Her response, " You guys are cute..."

LOL, my wife thinks I'm "stupid" and "obsessed". At least my kid is only 1 yr old, he could care less.

jmrinvt · 12-18-2010, 01:22 PM

AWESOME photos! Thank you for taking/sharing!

DNTJDGM3 · 12-18-2010, 01:27 PM

Any ideas when bmwusa will update their website tracking??

Your car will probably be delivered before the site is updated.

Been like that for years even when I got my E46 M3.

Here is HD Video of Fidelio navigating NY/NJ Harbor:

48Laws · 12-18-2010, 03:01 PM

It's crazy! We've become just as interested in the ship as the car itself.
