One in the morning session, and one in the afternoon session.
oooh interesting. I was curious about that. That actually makes me even more excited as it basically seems like they go all out making sure your experience is one of a kind. That is really cool. But yes knowing my car is sitting in their garage for a month waiting for me will probably be the longest month ever. I'm just excited its finally here.

I had the same change this week delayed depart date until 12/16. The Lake Wanaka departed Emden without my car a few days ago. The Sunshine Ace is due to be in Emden by Friday 12/9 so I'm hopeful to make it on that one.

I don’t know about LA, but at Atlanta they’re in the garage.

Too bad they don’t offer garage tours…lots of great eye candy in there. Delivery cars, press pool cars, employee cars, cars awaiting restoration, incoming/outgoing display cars, etc. Almost as good as inside!

oh I think he meant at the port. His car was sitting at Houston port for a good month before transport to LA. Mine just arrived at Benicia Port in California, so I'm hoping it gets on a truck sooner than later.

Speak of the devil, just checked TYD a second ago and its at the Port Processing milestone. Probably means it'll be on a truck by this weekend.

Emden Port? Mine sat there for about a month and it added about 2 weeks to my timeline. Was originally scheduled for delivery 11/28 but was pushed to 12/16.

Agreed!
I've popped in to the Atlanta Experience Center several times (without having an apt or driving experience scheduled) to kill time when laid over at ATL airport.
I usually get a coffee and treat at their deli, hit the gift shop then go snoop around the parking garage. There are usually a few lil gems down there!

yep Emden port. This is the second time it moved the estimate. SFL composer just left port and was really hoping to be on it. Sunshine Ace docks on Friday, if it doesn’t get on that ship then I am looking at end of January.

I've seen many cars at PEC LA sitting outside in the parking lot waiting for their delivery day.

Officially waiting! Put in my order for a '23 Spyder on 11/28 with a build date in May. My first new Porsche from factory! Excited for the process, not excited about the wait. Haha.
