I’ll be rooting for Siem Confucius (assuming I didn’t make it onboard Supreme Ace) as it’s the next one scheduled to into Baltimore, but movement, and clearing the port of cars, is good to see regardless.

Davisville, here. Here’s hoping they both come in and out quickly.

Hang in there.

Btw, zooming the pic reveals I did not win the tire lottery- car comes with PZeros. Does not matter much, as I have 19" wheels with PS4S waiting...

Same here, unfortunately.

You both already won the lottery with completed cars. :-) Isn't seeing that picture a great experience.
Hourly tracking of them on the ship will be your next step. Enjoy....

Agreed! And the PZ4 is a pretty nice all-rounder in the category, if not quite at the level of the PS4S.

Yea, I also received the PZ4 on the 718.
I have PS4S on my 911. I find the PS4S to be better handling and stiffer, with much louder road noise. The PZ4 feel softer but are much quieter, so good for tooling around if not pushing the car too much.
When the current PZ4 set wears out I will likely move to the PS4S or even Cup2.

My car has been stuck in the production stage for a long time, can a car be sitting on the production line for so long?
Do they just push it out of the way and let other car be built around it?

I see your 7/18 and raise with mine 6/21. I’m sure someone here will beat me. It is what it is… eventually it will arrive …

After refreshing TYD endlessly for the past few months since production started in early April, I'm almost done with my love/hate relationship with TYD!

Even though I know it has been sitting at the port since the 27th, I got my "Your Vehicle Has Been Produced" today. PCCBs we're not dropped.

Got my pictures just now. I am getting the Dunlops on my GT4, not the Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2's. I'm probably getting the PS4S when I need new tires anyway! Now to get it on a ship to Jacksonville!
