That’s a great news! My RS is going to Stead also!
Thanks!

Awesome early congrats! What color is yours so we can look out for it? My brother's RS is guards w/ aurum (non-WP).

FYI - just spoke with my brother and he confirmed that his RS was 9/15 arrival to Benicia and 9/19 arrival at Stead. Stead mentioned that they were surprised that it took 4 days given proximity to port -- 14 miles. He also said there were cars going to Carlsen that made from port in less than 4 days. Go figure.

Yeah just FYI my GT3 landed at Benicia on 10/21 and arrived at Sonnen 11/1...

Brett told me that one advantage of Benicia delivery is that N.Ca cars not only have a shorter delivery distance/time (vs San Diego) but that the cars don't get hustled on & off the transporters when other cars get dropped off at intermediate dealerships (on the way from SD to N.Ca) hence less dirt and chance of transit damage!

mine is White with satin black wheels. What’s your GT3T color? Saw a Miami Blue one the other day; it looked amazing. I like the stealth look of the Touring. Almost thought of taking the wing off of RS on non-track days.

Good info Larry and congrats on the "re-delivery" of your Voodoo blue GT3.

Sounds like port to dealer times can vary significantly. And keeping my fingers crossed for safe transport. I'm the reverse of what you were told by Sonnen -- mine is going from Benicia to PEC-LA.

White with blk wheels is classic and will look great.

My incoming touring is Oak Green Metallic with silver wheels (w/ PCCB + buckets).

Bishu Highway is leaving Davisville/Quonset Rhode Island right now. Any lucky ones at Jacksonville on board?
Looking forward to re-delivery!

That's in Oxnard. Just south of Santa Barbara.

The Miraculous Ace has made it to Davisville, the wait is almost over. Now hopefully doesn't take long to arrive to the dealer.

Siem Cicero must be grounded in the harbor. It was supposed to leave yesterday..... still sitting there and the Dehli Highway has been stalling in the Azors waiting for it to get underway. I have become a marine traffic expert.

Haha. Yes. It seems a lot these ships spend time at anchor waiting for each other to finish loading/unloading at the bottle neck dock.
