Definitely... The fact it had no stops between Emden and San Diego shaved a ton of transit time.

This is good news! So, in theory they unload the cars tomorrow, then how long do you think it will take until cars depart port?

My dealer still doesn't have any update.

I have a Spyder on the Queen Ace as well. The dealer told me today to expect delivery of the vehicle around April 20.

Interesting note:
In the Porsche Sales & Vehicle Management System there is two locations that show the Port Arrival date. First is in the Tracking Page... which shows all the Vehicle Status codes. The second is the Shipping/Invoice Page. Based on my order I have noticed that the Tracking page has not been most up to date. The Shipping/Invoice Page on the other hand Estimated Vessel Arrival mirrors the San Diego Port Schedule ETA. If that is the case, it is off by a week.

Below is my info:

Tracking Page:
4/8 - Entry Port San Diego
4/15 - Exit Port San Diego
4/22 - Dealer Inventory

Shipping/Invoice Page:
03/31 - Est. Date of Vessel Arrival

The ship stocking is over, now we shift back to hounding the dealer!

We only have the following left:

The wait is finally coming to an end!

That's still three weeks away - really hoping it will be sooner than that!

The Queen Ace left San Diego again this morning heading towards South Korea. Hope they did not forget one of our Porsche on the ship...:-)... Still wait for a feedback from my SA when the Spyder will make its way to the Bay Area...

Received a message from my SA... My schedule was updated.
-Entry port San Diego = 4/1 (actual)
-PDI in = 4/1 (actual)
-Exit port San Diego = 4/15 (expected date)
-Dealer Inventory = 4/15 (expected date)

The Dealer Inventory date was moved up a week earlier!

I hope it arrives even earlier than the estimate.

So if your car got to the PDI stage on 4/1 it appears that 4/15 is the date according to my SA to arrive the dealership. I guess there are some hold ups with 2017 Turbo's (actual model) not the 991.2 base or C2S's. Some of those cars have not cleared PDI and have been there for a few weeks. NA cars are good to go is what he stated.
