Vehicle Distribution Center

Okay, so my mini is expected to arrive in Brunswick Georgia on the 4th of April. How long does it usually take to go through the VDC and then from there to the dealership. It's being sent to Dallas. Thanks in advance!

By the way, the Oregon Highway is apparently a very slow ship.

Depends on how busy they are and how quickly they can get it on a truck, but typically about 2 days. If you're getting any accessories done, it may take a day or two longer.

My F55 spent a couple days at port before hitting the VDC and it spent 4 days inside (I also had sport stripes being put on)

The VDC operates on normal business hours, right?

Depends on the VDC - my VDC was Port Hueneme, CA and their hours are 6-4pm M-F, but I know some are open later or on weekends. I don't know what Brunswick's hours are...

Mine spent about 2 days at the VDC, which was also Brunswick and also came across on the Oregon Highway, but I had my stripes installed at the dealer afterwards and not at the VDC.

Best of luck to you, looks like your getting close to the finish line!
