Grand Venus Anyone?
Anyone else aboard the Grand Venus? My Chalk GT3 is chugging its way to the West Coast.
|
My Chalk 3RS that was completed 1/10 is. February 13th can’t come soon enough! |
Mine is on the Grand Venus. MB 3RS w/WP. Built 12/7, but got held up for several weeks for a couple small cxxx items. Originally thought we would get the car before Christmas. Well overdue!
|
My GT Silver RS with 909 WP is onboard! |
I am on this one! West Coast delivery, Red stripper model.

Will have to check with my dealer if my 3RS is on this one. Completion date for me was 1/8. When is it scheduled to reach San Diego?

My MT GT3 is also on the Grand Venus!!
Anyone know if there will be an impact at the port due to the partial government shutdown? |
Confirmed my 3RS is also on the Grand Venus!

Do these get updated? My car has been in Emden for a bit waiting for a ride to Davisville. I think it's due to be on the Euphrates Highway that was due to leave on the 25th at the latest, but as of today the 28th is still moored at port. |

Grand Venus should be at the port of Baltimore in the next few hours. Then off to San Diego via Panama Canal https://cimg1.ibsrv.net/gimg/rennlis...21449c381.jpeg |

I have a Carrera White Metallic GT3 Touring on this ship as well. Quite a party we have going here. :)

I first asked about an allocation in August - now more than 6 months later I'm tracking the Grand Venus every single day.
It just passed Acapulco... San Diego on the 14th or so... How long does it typically take to unload and get from San Diego to Benicia? |

I’m in the same boat, seems to really be moving, 16knts is hauling. Are you tracking via satellite? Vessel finder and Marine traffic only show when it’s within a few miles of port. I’ll be able to see it coming into San Diego bay. currently Glovis Countless is awaiting to enter port https://cimg2.ibsrv.net/gimg/rennlis...d79e4d160.jpeg |

Mine is on that boat as well... I'll probable be the last to see my GT3, as I opted to have it delivered to Portland, Oregon.

M https://cimg4.ibsrv.net/gimg/rennlis...a94cb28d9b.png made it to San Diego! Now just have to wait a month for pickup. |
^Why a month? My SA said ~ week after ship reaches port.

yeah that’s about right, usually gets to SoCal dealers in about 7-10 days. Then PDI at the dealership so about 2 weeks from now for retail delivery. mine goes directly to PECLA for pickup on March 13th. |

My 2019 Agate Gray GT3 is on that ship. Cant wait!
|
Well, the San Diego roll-off is all wrapped up - I hope everyone receives their car (or cars) soon without any hiccups (or, gasp, port holds).
Now the Grand Venus is creeping along very slowly west of the Golden Gate, just a bit behind schedule - maybe there's some congestion at the port? Anyone else expecting a car in Benicia? Tracking the Grand Venus multiple times a day like me? |
Benicia for me :corn: |
Benecia hear too!
|
Looks like the Grand Venus has been unloaded (based on the decrease in draught) so now I'm just waiting on the port exit status update... I hope mine doesn't get randomly chosen for an 80 mile road test.

Benecia
Benecia for me then truck. |
Any idea how long it takes to get the cars from Benicia to Norcal dealers? |

The more I learn about these RO-RO cargo ships,and the logistics involved, it’s really fascinating. Good luck! |
Anyone who's car was unloaded in Benicia see it hit their dealer yet? What about San Diego?

My SA called me Saturday and said my car is going through PDI at san Diego and should be at the dealership Thursday or Friday! Barring any issues after PDI.
2019 GT3 |
Someone close this thread please. I don’t like the latest updates. Sitting here in Portland waiting makes me bitter. Should have sent it to SF and had Mooty park it in my garage.
|
Anyone taking delivery from Walnut Creek? |
Anyone get their car yet? |
Not yet, still waiting.
|
My wife commutes into SF and drives by Marin Porsche every day. She said she saw a car trailer in front unloading white wrapped cars this morning - most likely the first batch from the Grand Venus. So some lucky individual(s) should be getting calls shortly! I haven’t received a call yet from my SA so mine might not be on this first trailer.... |
Just got a call from my SA, picking it up Saturday!
|
Car arrived at Sonnen, SA (Brett) just send pics. WIll have to wait till next week to pick up.

Mine finished PDI on 2/20 and made it onto a truck on 2/21. It might already be in Seattle! I'll swing by the dealer Saturday and see what I can see.
Starting this process back in August seems so long ago now... Oh, wait a sec... it was! |
... and now, it's here! I received a text message just before 10AM and drove over to watch it roll off the truck this morning!
|
Picking up at PECLA in 2 weeks!
Let me know if anyone sees a manual Voodoo Blue there. :rockon: |
After bitching to the Porsche gods, they answered. My car arrive in Portland over the weekend. :cheers:
|
Anyone in SoCal get their car yet? Still waiting on mine to arrive at BH Porsche. :banghead:

Odd I live in Eastern Washington and mine showed up last Friday. In any case good luck to all those waiting. The snow is deep here so it will be some time before I can do anything but polish and maybe an exhaust upgrade. If the snow keeps up I may get some winter tires.
