Me too

BTW, I prefer the CGT seats to the GT2/Carbon buckets. Wish I hadn't sold them, understand mooty has them now.

Got confirmation today that my car is on the Bess. I thought it was going to be on the Cougar Ace. Dealer says he should have it by Dec 5.

My tracking sheet still shows 12/5 for dealer inventory - snow/rain forecast for Wednesday now, hope they take it easy on the salt!

My Cayenne S is on Bess but it is just sitting 40 nm off shore. Is the port open on Sunday?
After it clears port it has to get to MN. If any of you get your car that is on Bess can you post here.
Thanks weather looks ok even roads in NY should be clear I hope.

My dealer said my car was on the boat on 11/10, with an expected delivery of 12/19 in NC. I need to confirm if it is on the Bess, but given the schedules, that seems like a high probability. It will be great if it arrives before 12/19, since we're going out of town for the holidays and won't be back until 12/29. The car has sport buckets and I can't imagine not seeing them as soon as they arrive! My VIN ends with 3666.

A devilish car for sure. Good luck. Just make sure no one sits in your LWB if car sits on display floor due to timing.

Theres a VPC in Newark for Porsche? I'm buying mine from a dealer in Jersey and salesmen said Davisville is where it would be unloaded, processed, and transported. Am I or him mistaken?
