Dang , Matthew Kidd , you have only 800 miles and you let someone sit in your car with their..................................bear butt.............ha! Congrats, a GT4 ripping around the highlands of Scotland has to be a riot, you are one lucky man!

 

Wild Rose Leader at Port Emden on July 6th!

 

Maybe there is a thread about this, but you can't build a Spyder on the configurator anymore. The Spyder RS is available to build; however, the Spyder is now History, lol, and I'm picking mine up today! Pictures to come.

 

Is everyone getting manufacturing pictures? My car has been at the port since 7/6 but so far, no pictures are on TYD.

 

My new favorite boat!

 

only one pic and been at port since 6/30

 

 

what does 356 signify? is that custom or OEM decal?

 

TYD notified me that I reached Milestone 9 today (arrived at local entry port) despite the fact that the ship unloaded at the JAX SPOD and then departed last Thursday - I suspect a little weekend delay in the system updating. Hoping for a quick TAT at the port/customs and a seamless trip to the dealership thereafter so I can pick up the car and move on from the "TYD do loop." Cheers.

 

I suspect this is homage to the old 356 model?

 

My GTS 4.0 is on this ship, just left Emden on 7/6. Can't wait!

Hi - I'm hoping to be on the Siem Aristotle that is scheduled to leave emden for davisville today or tomorrow I believe, has anyone received a TYD update that there car is on this ship yet?

 

It's oem. It was an option in this last year of production. the 356 has a personal connection to me. We had a 1953 Porsche 356 in our driveway collecting moss when I was a kid, I was the only one who paid it any attention and I washed and shined it, trying to bring it back to life. The car belonged to my favorite aunt who died of cancer back in 1983, she was 38. That's why I picked out the number. I also did the personalized door sills. I'll take more pictures later today and post here.

Regarding the 1953 Porsche. The car went back to my uncle, Bob Klotzer of El Toro CA. Not sure where it is today, but it was white with a red interior and a hard top. I love old cars but they often smell of gasoline which gives me a headache so I'm happy with my Modern Spyder. But I would be curious about the 1953 356.

 

The big day is FINALLY here!!!!!!! Holy hell I cannot believe this is real and that I finally have this car. What a surreal experience.

 

GT$/Spyders have been unavailable to order for quite a while now.
