My Oslo + CXX Spyder has been ahead of plan by a bit all along. It's now on a boat (Grand Dahlia anyone else?).

Early May date from PECLA is a drag though.

Congrats! Super exciting.

Say - my PTS build closed so fast and I was considering CXX but in the end no. What are you getting?



P.s. There's a ship tracking app - do you have it? You can track it all the way out of Emden, down the English Channel, and then you lose it over the Atlantic for some time. Fun to watch and send hourly irritating screenshots to your friends!

I thought the shipping app only worked on tracking the 911?

I think it is an app that tracks any ship. Not Porsche related IIRC.

Oh. Got it. Do you have a link to this tracking app?

There are multiple apps/websites that do this. You pay to get the ship AIS info when it is out of land based receiver range...such as when its in the middle of the Atlantic.

Personally, I was fine with the free info as the schedule updates were pretty close.

I effectively deleted Alcantara from the interior by doing the doors, lower dash, shift boot, and LWBS' in leather. Seats in houndstooth & other small touches.

Don't have the app but could check-in on the free sites that track marine traffic.

Best site is MarineTraffic dot com. If you are as obsessed as me, you can pay the $20 and get access to satellite tracking of the ship, so it never falls out of contact. It will also send you acknowledgements as it enters and leaves ports along the way.

I like my cars nearly as much as my boats.

Super nice! I may join you later with some Peptia seat inserts.

Yes, good idea.

P.s. So it looks like your Spyder left the factor 1 week early, correct?

Congrats! Sounds like your car moved way ahead of schedule then?

Got a text from CJ that my PTS Arrow Blue GT4 arrived yesterday (about a month early). Big props to CJ @ Porsche Fresno for making it happen. Car will have clear bra put on the week of the 15th and then off to the shop to put on all the track mod goodies I took off my 981 GT4. It should be ready to track in April.
