I found out that my car is coming on Bishu Highway, and it just left Davisville yesterday. So it is quite possible that it will be at my dealership by the end of this week. Once it is at the dealership, I will have my wheels painted Platinum Satin (it will go well with Agate Grey), so I may have a new ride on the week of July 6. Looking forward to that!!

whats the destination port?

my car spent about 10 days at Emden ... its the luck of the draw as to when it will depart ... you can watch the Emden port arrivals for car carriers and then predict which one you will be on based upon their destination after departure

Mine was in Emden for only 2-3 days. The off on the Eurasian Highway to Southhampton. A day there then to Baltimore due in on Sunday. Due in Brunswick on July 3. I am hoping to be driving my new 991 on my birthday on the 13th. Right now it is in the informational Black Hole in the Atlantic. Should show up on the maps late today or tomorrow.

transit time is around 21-28 days Emden->SD ... if the Cronus Leader is anything to go by then PCNA say allow 2-3wks thereafter for it to transit
customs/VPC/and shipping to the dealer...

Mine's in the mid-Atlantic now. Due in on the East Coast on 7/3.

My dealer told me that ED cars take a lot longer to pass through customs that 'normal' cars.

Any guesses (or non-guesses) as to why?
