Congrats on the speedy delivery! The Mermaid Ace is already on it's way to Houston. That was a quick unload in RI. Hopefully we'll all be as lucky and see them in one week.

I'm hearing that 15's won't be released from the Port until all the 14's are gone. The info I got was vague and did not specifically say ALL 14's in the country, or at a specific dealer, etc.... Can you double check with your dealer to see if yours left the port? If it's on a truck, then were home free. If not, we may be stuck there for a bit.

fibredog,

The dealer confirmed...(his terms)...transport was greenlighted yesterday. This means the car could show up tonight or Wed, Thu, Fri., etc. He expected it tomorrow. No promises though, just his expectations based on experience. I'll let you know in the am.

Not so great fibredog...still at PORT as of 1:00pm EST today....misinformation to blame. Just left a vm for Andrea at PCNA...she's the GT3 concierge. I'll let you know when I hear back from her. The saga continues.

Kentucky Highway was at port 3-4 days prior to the Mermaid Ace. Since the CT dealer received Kentucky Highway cars yesterday, I would assume we should be released any day now. My dealer is also trying to get info but had nothing as of 8PM last night.

I guess still no deliveries from the Mermaid Ace. I was told that mine should be Friday, but nothing definitive. Anyone else here get any better info?

Mine just showed up at the dealership at 8AM this morning. They are looking to turn it around today for me, so I will post a pic or two once I get it. I would assume all of ours were released and put on trucks at the same time, so if not today, I would expect tomorrow for most Mermaid cars going to dealers on the east coast.
