Where is your car ???
My salesman tells me my car arrives in Davisville today the 24th. Is there even a ship that is supposed to arrive today? Is he just too lazy to find out more info? Can I call some PNA central number and give my VIN to locate where my vehicle is? Are there any of you RLer's waiting for your cars from Davisville about now? A lot of questions, this sucks, so close I'm starting to lose it.

You can track it at this website. The boat is delayed because it went further south in the Atlantic to avoid the hurricane.

Not sure of the timing of component build, whether its just in time or done months ahead. Mine might be getting poured in a foundry right now. Or the sheet metal could be sitting on a spool waiting to be shaped. Or somewhere between.

It's so frustrating that some dealers can't be even remotely passionate about this, and they just look at the crappy Porsche tracking system. My dealer was awesome, sending me daily updates and taking the infamous "birthing video" since I couldn't get there in time to see it come off the truck.

swivelhi: there's a very good chance that you were on the Kentucky Highway just like me. even when the Kentucky Hwy was docking and in port on 10/21, the PCNA rep / concierge was estimating a 10/24 delivery. ask your dealer to check the system and call his rep for the latest status.

Hello all, in regards to the dealers, Porsche ( in their infinite arrogance) has kept the dealers in the dark. The dealer can't get any info that your GT3 rep can't give you.
I sat with my dealer many times, and I too become frustrated, but then I say to myself " I am sure they would rather have a sale to a happy client than listen to me whine". Its not the dealers are lazy or uncaring. They are unable to help, so they detach to a degree.
It was a real mess from the beginning and it was thru no fault of the dealers. Yes I too show up unannounced at the dealer to get an update. I find that only serves to pass time and get some pleasant car talk, which is ok.
I am told by many members on this board that all the anger and frustration towards Porsche and the dealers and whoever else will melt away the first time the motor screams to 9000 rpm!!!
I hope so for all of us!
Good luck to everyone waiting!!!! Remember how lucky of a group we are to be fortunate enough to purchase something of this caliber, while there are people struggling to pay the rent or electric bill. That puts things in perspective for me.
The wait is almost over for all 14 people, and a short while for the 15s.
Drive safe
