Default Can anyone help with getting an update on my car?

My dealer has become.... well... umm.... lacking in the responsiveness category lately.

Just figured it'd be easier to ask on here. I know my car has been completed but I wanted to know what ship it is on (if its even on one yet)

VIN: WP0AC2A90FS184101

Only your dealer can access the shipping info. Do you have the date it was completed or the date it reached Emden. What port will the car be shipped to? Give us this info and we can take an educated guess as to which ship it is on and the approx date it will arrive...

Completed on 12/4. Going to Los Angeles... On my last GT3, I think it actually docked in San Diego or maybe Port Hueneme.

This car should be on the Altair Leader NYK line. It is currently under sail going thru the English channel. My car is also on this boat and was completed the same day as yours. I can't find my VIN number to see how close we are. http://www.marinetraffic.com/en/ais/.../shipid:665516
retired B737,MD80, B727

I forgot to say your car is going to San diego and will be trucked to your dealer. The trucking part seems to take the longest, I waited 10 days after the ship docked to get my car last time.

And your dealer is an *** for not keeping the communication open on your car. How hard is it for them to check an e-mail you? Takes maybe 2-3 mins tops!!

X1000....this is the one item that is not acceptable in my opinion! Bad communication is not ok if you bought a car for $30k let alone $130k

you have no idea. This is the 3rd Porsche ordered from this dealer. the SA I am dealing with, who is also the sales manager now, is the son of the owner of the dealership. However, Im at the top of his list and floated my allocation until LWB were available.... so i guess its worth it????

Any guess on which dealership in the LA/OC area??

This is not 20 questions......

It's simple ask them what the status of V331 or V332 is.
Its simple......
