Woo Hoo!! Dealer called me this morning & said he'll call me once the car is prepped & ready for me to pick up. It took only 53 days from the start of production to arrival at my dealer. I consider that to be pretty impressive.

Dang, mine was delivered to the port in Jax on the 22nd too, and was originally scheduled to be delivered to the dealer this week, but when I went and checked on it today the dates got pushed out to the middle of July.

It's like when you have to poop, and the closer you get to a bowl, the more you feel like you gotta go... it's so close, I might crap my pants.

Anyone else on the same ship or know the ships name?

TYD shows 7/24 arrival to port.
What a relief! That’s got to be one of the biggest delays at port I’ve read about on here.

Curious if you received word on the cause of the delay? My car is scheduled to arrive JAX end of next week so want to level-set expectations now (which are currently minimal) for a potential delay. Cheers, hope you get your car soonest.

SA's info showed the same dates.

He said there's no real rhyme or reason to it, and that the dates in TYD are only accurate ~25% of the time (lol), so to not sweat it for now.

He just had a car delivered himself recently, and went through the same thing... car showed up in Jax, got delayed/pushed back in TYD, then it showed up to his dealership 2 weeks earlier than was scheduled.

No heartburn here, just means I have to call my detailer and push out my appointment for PPF/Tint.

My TYD just updated its dates and now delayed 3 weeks to leave Emden port, estimated exit date 07/14. I know it can move up out of nowhere, so really hoping that happens.

Mine did the same... Originally 6/23... Updated to 07/14 like you. Pretty sure if you miss the ship date it automatically bumps to 3 weeks. I have seen this happen to multiple people, but then get ship loaded way before that 3 week delay. There are multiple ships in line to arrive headed for Benicia... Next being Neptune Barcelona within the next 24 hours. The next isn't that far behind that. So I just cross my fingers I will get loaded onto Neptune Barcelona.🤞🏼

Does anyone know how to look up the vessel schedules that depart from Emden and have a Baltimore destination?

OMG!!! TYD SAYS MY CAR IS AT THE DEALER!!!

I got the update at 8:15 and didn't see it until around 9. Obviously the dealer is closed and I won't find out if it's actually there until tomorrow morning.

Has anyone EVER got this update saying it's at the dealer when it wasn't actually there?? As much as the TYD thing can be all over the map with dates, I don't think it would ever go to the next step if the thing didn't actually happen, would it??

Super Excited! After waiting at Emden since 4/25, my car finally got on a boat. I am assuming it is on the Supreme Ace.

Damn man, that really sucks. When did it hit V300? IIRC, they need 3-4 weeks lead time to tee up the ED date.

Still waiting to hear from my SA on whether my car is there. It's Schrodinger's delivery...
