Ditto, my Spyder is Benicia. My dealer is less than 20mi from Benicia and he didn't think we'd see it until next week. Of course he's also off Friday and Monday so sounds like I won't get it until Tuesday. Seems kinda lame

If you have a Lava Orange GT4 I saw it in Benicia. Was trying to see my car but the vantage point just didn't work out.

I know the answer is in one of the 381 pages of this thread...somewhere...

My BGTS is at port and expected to be on vessel on June 3rd. How do I know which ship I'll be on?

Maybe we can edit the first post and enter a condensed FAQ there so people like me don't have to ask.

You’re SA can pull it up on PVSMS and tell you, alternatively I hear it shows on TYD.

TYD wasn’t available for my car; luckily I had a proactive SA with regular updates.

Perfect. Thanks. I'll check TYD once it updates.

TYD will show what ship it is on when you reach that stage. Then it is up to using a different source to track the ship if you are so inclined.

How long have you been at Emden? I thought I missed the San Martin as it moved to on vessel June 3rd, but it just updated today that it made the San Martin and is underway!

Perhaps you made the boat as well?

Canadian don't get TYD, we only have the MyPorsche App which is always 1 week behind. Fortunately, my SA sent me a message to tell me that my car made it on SAN MARTIN and it is due at Halifax on Jun 9 😁😄 The wait is almost over

Was that possibly Guards Red? Or for sure Lava

Congrats!

I've only been at port since May 25th. Looks like I'm waiting for the next boat.

It was definitely Lava. Did see a Guards Red 911 though. I could only see the first row of cars, I assume it was something like 10+ rows deep.

TYD just updated to say delivery to dealership on the 3rd. It claims Port Processing finished on the 28th but I'm pretty sure that's a bit too early.

Default I don't know how it happened!!!

Gents, it must have been destiny. I was shopping for a new ride...R8s, C8s etc..... but always gravitated back towards Porsche. (Thanks dad)

Started calling around for 718 GT4s within a 75 mile radius from me. No luck since theyve all been allocated and the cue was 4-5 deep. But then got a call back from my closest dealer (3 miles away) on May 24th. They had one due for delivery on June 10th that was not reserved. Dropped a deposit May 28 to reserve the car.

Got a call this morning that the car was already delivered and was going thru PDI. I was not ready!!! Glad to be lurking rennlist.

Updated around 5PDT. TYD is drunk, current phase is Entry Port but says Port Processing started a few days ago.
but most importantly, delivery date got pushed forward 2 weeks from 6/17 to 6/3.
