All that just got confirmation that their 3 is on the Kentucky Highway 045A.

What's the typical time from port to dealer? Someone mentioned that it's going to be 3 weeks!!!!! Due to reduction in covered truck or sth. Can we arrange to pick up the car ourself?

Default Port to dealer

You can't pick up your car at the port. Porsche dealer has to do the PPI on the car.

As to my comment about 3 weeks from port to dealer. That is for car's arriving at Davisville. There is a country shortage of drivers and those that drive covered auto carriers. Go figure the unions want a raise and thus there is a US wide "slow" down.

The real cause is car production and car's being imported to the US has been on an increase which is the root cause of the delay.

Looks like its getting pretty close.

Ordered a Macan Turbo today, my dealer told me my GT3 will be at the port on the 5th.

Spoke the the sales manager today, and he told me that usually he expect the car to get from Port to my dealer in a week. (I don't know, may be he was just trying to get me to buy a Macan...)

Haha, thanks for posting the latest position which I'm not technically capable of doing.
I'm curious, where is your dealer located? We've seen other posts here stating it could take 3 weeks from DVV to destination dealer

Thanks

I don't know if it is actually legal to post these stuff. MOD, please remove if see fit.

My dealer is in Manhattan. I guess it could take up to 3 weeks, look, my dealer has been pretty clueless about everything. So...
