Grant, I had asked whether the factory would paint the GT3 script GR on my .2GT3 and the estimate I received was I believe $1200 plus a delay in delivery. I'm stupid but not that stupid.

Current position of the Miraculous Ace (8:16 am) less then 200 miles from Davisville (DVV) Rhode Island and the ship stopped probably due to low tide at Davisville. According to a local map the "high tide" is reached around 3:05 pm local time so it may be timing it's entry partly for that reason or waiting for dock space. The black arrow was the tide level (low) at 8:16 am.

Do you have an account with marine traffic?

If so is Davisville the final destination or is it making its way to Jacksonville afterwards?
And if so does it show an ETA for that?

Thanks

Yes I have an account but the "free" account. The next Port is Jacksonville and based upon it's projected arrival into Davisville which is two day late the Miraculous Ace should arrive on or around the 9th of August (see attached PDF). Getting close for many of us......Big Smile!

My 19 gt3 rs got the dealership late Saturday so only got a sneak peek at it from my SA. Excited to pick it up on Monday.

no way of knowing.

I called the port in Davisville, they're going to get those cars out with forklifts, tow trucks, and snowplows in order to get the ship back on schedule.

I also called Jacksonville and they have the wheeled moa-nalo down pillows ready to get my precious out of the boat.

Are you sure about that? I heard moa-nalo down pillow treatment only applies to 3RSs that are LG, non-WP with Aurum wheels and PCCBs but I could be wrong. Though, I am positive for the rest of the cars they are applying the “Remember the Alamo” treatment and chucking them overboard.

I don't mean to offend the WP folks but that color just stands out so much more on its own and looks stunning.

If I had the WP package I would try to find wrap to match the paint on the hood and roof so as to have maximum affect of the color whilst retaining the performance advantages.

imo

Looks incredible! Probably it is one of the first for a private owner. What PPF brand and coverage you going for? Headlights? Exoshield?
