The dealership sent me a picture a few minutes after it was off the truck. Not sure which dealer yours needs to go to, but it could take a little longer. Hopefully there are no other issues delaying your delivery. The status also changed this morning to show the car is in final prep stages for delivery.
Ok thanks my SA told me about 2 weeks for delivery to them and then 1 week for prep. If this pans out then will be 1 week later than first estimate they gave me when I received the allocation in February.

If they are not doing anything other than normal prep they shouldn’t need a week to get the car ready. That should only take a day.
Where is your dealer located and what port do they get their cars from?
My dealer (IL) gets their cars from Baltimore (exclusively they say). My boat made it there two days early, and then I was told to expect 7-10 days at the port since sports cars were taking a long time. But it left the port and is on the way to the dealer as of this morning. Thought I had another week to decide if I wanted to keep my 911. But MAYBE I will be getting a Father's Day gift.
PS - I was not notified about being on the boat by porsche.com and/or the dealer until a day after the boat left.

Honestly i'm just being impatient and hoping that it will get here sooner rather than later. My original ETA was July 23rd but if it gets on a ship now, i could potentially get it by 2nd week of July.
Im in CA and the car will be dropped off at Benicia Port which is only about an hour and a half drive north of my dealership.

and no sooner had I posted, I got the text. The car has arrived.
That makes sense then. Mine will probably take more than a week because the installer is striving for perfection.
Just got a pic from my salesperson - the car arrived yesterday. MY PORSCHE also updated today saying it has arrived. They are busy since they received quite a few so hopefully next week I can pick it up. All in all the timing is almost exactly the estimate he had when I first got the allocation in February.
Got the update the other day that my car made it to the german port! Let's see how long before it actually leaves the port- gives me a 6/12 - 6/26 window, but it arrived earlier than quoted at the port so hopefully follows the trend!
My GTS finished and 2 weeks ago and was waiting at German port, said arriving at PECLA July 17 (I’ll be at the Budapest F1 race then so assumed I’d schedule PECLA for later). Yesterday it showed it still at German Port but now the expected delivery date is pushed out to Sept 1! I was hoping to have it in time to drive up to Monterey for Werks at Car Week but that’s not possible now. I wonder if it’s the shipping or the availability of PECLA dates that has pushed out? Any thoughts?

When you look on TYD does it show a range of possible dates? A lot of us have been seeing that recently. My car is at Emden but says it won't be in CA until June 29th till September 9th so quite a big range. I'm assuming I'm still on track to get it by my original stated ETA which was July 19th.
Argh, back in the waiting room with you all! ;-) Dropped my BGTS off after European Delivery Thursday and now I'll be watching the AirTag and figuring out the shipping sites.
