Finally. It’ll be so worth it once you fire her up and drive off.

Waiting here too. Contacted the dealer and they are saying it gets to them Aug 14-18 (30 miles away) and then a few days for final dealer inspection. Was hoping for getting the car before Car Week but RR7 will do just fine! Hang in there folks - there is a light at the end of the tunnel.

Not yet. I don't like the updated TYD... doesn't show my build spec any more. Where does the window sticker show up?

Yup I’m so grateful my dates held out. We had an unbelievable time driving through Germany, Switzerland, and Italy. It’s so worth the ups and downs of the ordering process. Picked it up on July 10 and it’s on a ship right now. Hopefully at my dealer by EoM!

Just a few more weeks to go for you - it’s almost there man! LMK if you need any driving itinerary suggestions

won't show up under TYD; it'll be there once you add the car to MyPorsche, which I did. can't do much since i don't have the car and haven't inputted the pairing code in the PCM

If you’re on the Siem Cicero (like me), it now shows docked at Sparrows Point in Baltimore. My TYD hasn’t updated yet, but I imagine that should happen soon

WOW!!!! Gorgeous build! So glad you were able to get yours on time. I'm going to drop an airtag in my car before I leave so we can track movement beyond just whatever the system tells us. I have some good ideas on where I want to go and my buddy coming with me is a professional photographer and we're going to document the process along with look for some scenic areas for photos. I'll hit you up over DM and probably ask some more questions since you already went through the process.

6IXSpd ----I echo the sentiment , what an incredibly beautiful build, and though I would not have thought of it the white seats and trim are an outstanding touch.

PS - I was going to post about Siem Cicero , Blue Barchetta , but you are a step ahead of me. Interesting how the " My Porsche " order overview shows the ship about 200 miles or so in the Atlantic about even with NYC. I wonder why they don't just unload all the cars there, since it is only about 200 more miles to ship to me from there instead of Houston, but for you it is a lot less.

on the basis of time, unloading your car in Baltimore would seem way faster. I honestly didn’t think for a minute yours wasn’t being unloaded there. I’m a day drive (less) from Baltimore. One more day on a truck would get your car to Nebraska. The ship is stopping in Jacksonville before Houston, which is even more lost time. From the videos I’ve seen of sparrows point, I’d think it could easily handle a whole ship worth of cars. And BMW has a massive place there too. Somewhere there must be a bean counter that thinks the current method makes sense 🤷‍♂️
