Default How much longer?

I'm trying to be patient, but waiting is really getting to me. The status of my car as of 4/16 is "Released to Carrier." The next available status is that it is at the dealership. How long does it typically take to go from port to dealership?

The timing on this is either going to be just perfect or off just enough to be a PITA. The lease on my Mazda is over on 4/27.

Default If you only knew what I went through the first time

That would make the wait on feel like nothing. I'm just getting worried about the timing with the end of my other lease.

Default Where are you, and where is the port it went into?

On my B5 I think it was 2 weeks from "released to carrier" to "at dealership". I was in Colorado at the time. For my B7, I think it was about 8 days between those status updates and I'm in Seattle now. They typically move via rail for this stage of the process, so it can take a while.

Default Columbus, OH

I don't know what port it came in at, but I would guess east coast.

So it probably came in to New Jersey, which means hopefully it won't be *that* long.

Default Took mine less than a week to get from port to dealership

Completely depends on any number of factors, however.
