Talking GT3 V331...which ship???

It's been a long road, ordered April 2017 but dealer sent me update my GT3 has a vin # and entered port of Emden on 7/16/2018. Is there any way for me to track car or ship or only dealer has access. Going to port of Jacksonville.

Haha, I ordered in 2016 and won't get my car till October (it is non PTS); however, I get it at MSRP and that is all I care about. My spec is pretty minimal; I'm simply excited about the motor, manual transmission, and overall driving experience

The dealer can tell you -- on the same tracking system that has the information they gave you it will also name the ship that will carry the car -- it's on the shipping/invoicing tab.


This screen also mentions what kind of tires are fitted too (looks like "mich", i.e. Cup2's for me).

Thanks for your very informative replies. Dealer rep checking to see if vessel name appears then I can follow.

Mine went V332 and left Emden 7/18, so we may be on the same boat. Going to port of Houston for me.

Mine left port of Emden on 7/17 on the Hoegh Bangkok. Scheduled to arrive in Houston 8/17, but in my previous experience, it's usually a full week earlier than that!

Mine is coming in the same boat

Are you able to still track it ? The app I use says that its "Newer position by Satellite" (that seems you need to pay).

I click on the coordinates to check where it is... still needs to go through Halifax.

I’m also on this Bangkok ship. It doesn’t look like it’s moving ahead of schedule at the moment. I’m guessing if it gets to Nova Scotia on Thursday evening, it will unload Friday and take off to Davisville getting there Saturday night or Sunday morning. Do they unload on weekends too? If not, I guess it will unload Monday?

Davisville is my stop. But is certification (emissions approval?) done yet? Or will they just sit at the port for now?

I'm on Heough Bangkok too!

I gotta think these are the first customer cars to hit the states. Anybody else have WP equipped?
