TYD updated for me this morning, my car arrived at port 5/21-22 and is now scheduled to leave 6/22. Love that the car sits on the coast for a month or so !!!

well, it's my first Porsche order this year. Last car in early 2022 was very much on time with production and schedules didn't get pushed back. I just assume Canadian cars get priority for boats destined for Halifax lol.

Ditto here.

Was slated for lat June delivery, SA had me scheduled to leave port last week, but TYD updated yesterday to push my delivery date out to mid July.

​​​​​​Fingers crossed it doesn't miss the next ride across the pond.

My BGTS has made it to Davisville, and I can’t stop refreshing TYD. Someone please help me stop! 😂

My dates changed yesterday too. They were saying tomorrow for leaving port, which seemed to line up nicely with the Siem Cicero getting there. Yesterday it changed to June 23 to July 7 though, which suggests it's not getting on that boat.

Ah well... whatever happens, happens. I was hoping against hope to have it in time to do DE in July but that's quickly slipping away. Guess I'll have a more relaxed break-in period now.

It's starting to feel real, can anyone see what tires I've got?

Now I just received an e-mail from Porsche that my TYD has changed, went to check and it has gone to 8 which means it left port today. Who knows, I just hope it is correct .

I blew up your photo and with the resolution I ended up with I could not see a manufacturers name but I feel I would have seen some of the Michelin markings, my guess would be Dunlops. Hope someone else can make a better determination.

From looking at the pixelated sidewall my guess is a Dunlop as well.

They are very similar tires, with the Race 2's better in the wet!

TBH if you aren't destined for the track neither these or the Cup 2 are what I would choose for the street, the MPS4S would be a better choice.
