My car was in this status from March 12 until early June and arrived Oxnard 7/10. The summary report that you refer to is less detailed than the vehicle inquiry which has more detail. I never learned why it was in "limbo" so long other than comments like "it takes 10 times as long to build a Z8 as a 320" and "they are fixing minor items."
I believe that you should expect to wait six weeks from the initial production week before you can expect the car to go to the dock. It can sit another week to 10 days before loading and departure. From there it is two weeks to NJ.
Hope this helps.

: The BMW 'internal status report' for my car, indicates " Import produced but not shipped ". This has been its status for over 3 weeks at this point. What does this status indicate ? It was in status 155 since the end of May until it changed to its current status. Is the car still sitting at the factory pending shipment to the port ? Does anyone know why the delivery pipeline seems to be flowing so slowly ? If this were a ' normal' BMW , I understand that shipment takes about 3-4 weeks factory to east coast dealer making a delivery to my dealer by mid to late June. Obviously the Z8 is not a 'normal' BMW ! What gives?
