In the interim, I took a look at Google Maps, Emden is about 400 miles from Zuffenhausen, TYD estimates my car to get to Emden the same day it reaches CP8.0!
And finally as of today (7/18) the car entered production! It's becoming really real finally. Probably still way to go, but at least that is a very concrete progress!

If I try to go directly to TYD with my iPhone using the bookmark I set up in Safari, I get Umbrella Man. If I open the iPhone MyPorsche App and click TYD there it always works. And if I go on my PC Laptop using Google Chrome and the most recently visited website for TYD it almost always works.

Still stuck in port of Benicia. it's been more than 21 days since the ship Glovis Summit landed and TYD now updated to mid august for delivery.... Guess you can be stuck on either side of the pond.

My low interest rate loan is going to be expired too and the new rates are way higher :/

Interesting! My other Porsches all had a shot of the car on the rolling cart (with most of the interior installed). Never seen this shot before - straight from the paint shop! Anyone else get a pic like this?

It is likely incorrect. In one case TYD backdated my car to a previous milestone (meaning it was never actually on the ship).
