I was given an estimate of $4,200 if she shopped alone in a container, and a savings of approx. $1,500 if I waited a few weeks to ship with another car in the container. I waited. I was charged $4,300. 😡 No wonder you're always salty. Still, that is some BS.

According to Linda at MS an individual car is about $1800 shipping plus $800 for pickup from the Newark NJ port. Four cars in a container runs about $1400 each, which includes the container delivery directly to MS. So the savings are $1k+. Hey Guys, Congratulations on your orders for your M3Ws! I sense your feelings of anticipation and excitement - happy for you guys! I bought my 2016 M3W from Linda and Larry Eckler at Morgan of New England. The factory completed my build back on December 16th, and I opted to have the car air freighted to me in order to have it in my garage before the holidays. The cost for air freight and customs duties were not cheap....$4,027.45 for the air freight, and $2,500 for the customs duties. The Sterling to Dollar conversion rate at the time was 1.285. Linda had informed me that the extra charge for air freight was $1,800. It was quite a premium, but I'm happy with my decision to get the car here in time for the holidays....we had some nice warm weather here in CT during that time period, and I got to enjoy putting some fun break in miles on it. Linda and Larry are great people, and it was very nice dealing with them. I'm sure you will both love your cars and have a great experience with the delivery process. When the weather gets nice (snow storm here today!), we should all meet up for a nice drive! Best of luck to you. -Tom

That's not bad JFP - I would have thought it would take longer than that on the water.
Mine looked to be mostly done in the factory video from last Friday - needing only exhausts, roll-hoop pads, and fenders from what I could tell. Would be great if I saw it by the end of April, but have waited this long - ordered it mid October - what's another week or two... I believe the one mine is supposed to ship with is completed and waiting to go.

Hey JFP - I talked with Linda on Monday. Still no word on when mine will ship. She said she has 4 in a container shipping first, then 3 more coming later. And it looks like mine may be in the 3. Hoping that I can get it by the end of April.
