Mine went V331 entry port emden 1/20. How do you know when it leaves and on which ship? Does the dealership also have this info?

Once it's on a ship, the dealer will know which one.

Hopefully it won't sit in Emden for 40 days....

My car just completed production and is waiting for transport to Emden. The next ship to San Diego is the Equuleus Leader scheduled for 1/29. Do you think it'll make it? Otherwise, I probably have to wait another two weeks for the Metsi Leader.

Doubt it will make 1/29 if still awaiting transport.

Mine went V331 on 1/23, and the next ship to the west coast leaves Emden on 1/29. I assume it's highly likely I'll make that one, but the Porsche system still estimates "Exit port Eden" V332 as 2/6...

Does your car usually just get on the next boat if it's at Emden when the boat arrives?

Mine also went V331 on 1/23! Quicker than I thought.

Mine went V331 on 1/20, destination: Davisville. Can the dealer tell if it has Michelin or Dunlops at this point?

I don't think so...maybe there is a way I'm not aware. Think it's cross the fingers and pray before it shows up.

Not in my case. My Macan arrived in Emden on 12/12 and sat until 1/21. Holiday shut down surely had some effect on mine.

Good luck.

Yeah your dealer can look the tires up after production complete date. It will show the code for michelins vs Dunlop. Mine is confirmed to be Michelin.

wow, looks like a lot of our cars were completed on Friday.

I hope that they all make it to port by the 29th!
