Nope, no WP.... my port is Houston, TX, expected 8/6... still can't track HB, not close enough to shore I guess

Yours could be on the same boat. Check with your dealer. My SA is fantastic, and gave me the boat name and link before it leave port Emden.

Just got update from my salesman, car is on the Miraculous Ace which was scheduled to leave Emden yesterday the 25th arriving Jacksonville 8/7. Fortunately for me we are only 3 house up the road. Now have to figure out how to track the ship.

When did your car enter port of Eden? Mine said 7/12... I'm hoping mine is on the same boat.

Thanks for attaching the pic ! (I use the web version, and its not tracking HB anymore... as if its only avail through Satellite)

BTW, I'm getting mixed signals on whether CARB cert is done or not on GT3 RS (Posted same question in another thread, I got a "almost confirmation"..... PCNA said yes, but the guy who picked up wasn't too aware of what it was, and dealership told me that even EPA is "About to be done", which is even worse)

Assuming no delays w/ customs, Typically whats the turnaround time for offloading in Houston and getting on transport truck to a dealership? Mine is on the H Bangkok and then headed to Chicago. I'm in San Francsico however and planning to fly to Chicago for the pickup.

Currently my V900 date (dealer inventory) is still Sept 7 which even my SA agrees is not realistic.

Thanks!

Mine is a "regular" GT3, so no epa wait for me!

What Chicago Dealer? I've watched a couple of my cars arrive and get shipped to dealer in last few years, one was at dealer in Chicago 2 days after the boat docked...it's a total crap shoot tho!

It got delayed about 7 hours from initial prediction but landed in Nova Scotia at 6am. I would guess it’s going to take the day to unload and then it’ll head back out getting to Davisville Saturday or Sunday for the scheduled Monday offloading.

This past week of waiting has had me anxious, not because of the car on the ship, but because my dealer GM says certification is still not done and I just want to know when I can go fly to NYC and sign paperwork and have the car shipped to Atlanta. That will probably be 10 days itself.

I’m assuming this is the first boat with any .2 GT3 RS period, right?

mine entered port on 7/16 so very likely you are unless you got on an earlier one.

I'm on the same ship!

Here's how I'm tracking it.
