Shipping time from Baltimore Port to MD dealerships?

What time frame are people seeing when it comes to shipping from Baltimore port to local dealerships after VDC work is complete?

My car is in transit and I want to see how long after VPC it should take to get to BMW of Catonsville.

Thinking it shouldn't take more than a day maybe two at the most.

After my car cleared customs and the VPC work order was complete, it took about 3-5 days to get to my dealership in Alexandria, VA. It was 'released to carrier' for sometime but I guess they were out of trucks.

Mine (delivered first week of Nov) took three days to get docked, cleared, unloaded and through VPC to Passport BMW dealership once the vessel arrived. Pretty damn quick if you ask me.

It honestly depends on a lot of factors. Was your car on the back of the ship or the front? Is there any delay? Do they need to fix any damage that may have been done to the car while on the boat? It could take anywhere from a week to a week and a half and in the worst case scenario, two weeks.

Thanks for all the info. My car is now in the hands of the Feds.

BTW saw a white M4 on the B/W parkway just after Powder Mill yesterday with a MD plate. Was wondering of anyone knows who this might be. Had two gentlemen in the car.
