Here is a quote from one of their press releases about their operation:
“We get these vehicles 90 percent road ready here, so when they arrive to the dealerships, minimal work needs to be done,” Justin Miranda said.
After exiting the ship, vehicles are driven to the first location where windshield wiper fluid and oil is put in, floor mats are installed, vehicle decals are put on and more. In just half an hour, between 15 and 20 cars are processed. They then go to the accessories building, where more detailed parts are installed, including trunk liners, spoilers, mirrors and solar panels. On a normal day, 400 to 500 vehicles will move through that area.
Another part of the facility is dedicated to larger installations, ones that take more than one hour to do, like tires and side-steps for SUV’s. One of the last stops for the vehicles, if need be, is the repair shop. The transportation process from overseas can take a small toll on the vehicles, including dings in the paint or minor dents."
Let's hope we get the call in the few days that our cars have arrived. I will advise when I get that call. My dealer is in Boston.

I think your SA left out a few key words; I believe the Porsche Order System quotes this date as on or before or no later than the 28th. At any rate, Porsches should begin leaving today for dealer delivery from North Atlantic Distribution, Inc. (NORAD). Here is a link to their operation and a video: http://noradinc.com/index.php

From prior experience, I found that you can check the porschedealer website and tell when the car's sticker has been created. After this happens, it will show up on the porschedealer website. The next step is delivery to your dealer.
