When did yours get fixed V250? mine was V250 on 1/23 (3 days ahead of schedule).
Does NJ cars go through Jacksonville as well? There are 2 options in Feb I'm hoping we can make:
247 VIKING CONQUEST - 2/15 which would arrive on 3/2 in to FL.
188 HOEGH BANGKOK - 2/26 which would arrive on 3/15 in to FL.
My car was fixed on 1/22. Port of Entry will be Davisville, Rhode Island. Expected arrival at Davisville is 3/16, but I'm currently a full week ahead of "Expected schedule". No idea if being ahead of schedule in production translates to early arrival. For all I know, my car might sit at the exit port for the extra week. You can bet I'll be checking regularly! Good luck.

Thanks, Sub. When the time comes, how do I find out what ship the car is on?

So they re going to be born one shortly after the other. If your's got V260 today with V250 1/22, then mine would be V260 tomorrow with the V250 1/23.

Wow, so exciting

Here is the schedule.
There was a post with the link, I'll look for it.

Thanks to @Keadog

Here's the VW Ro-Ro schedule:

http://www.pwl.de/en/services/liner/roro

There's PDF file for "export" that you click on that has ship names and expected dates in various ports (including Jacksonville). They don't update it all the time and the latest ends the beginning of February.

Once your SA gets you a ship name, you can follow it here:

@Avalon911
Can you please check to see if a VIN has been assigned to your 911?
In the iPad Porsche app, you can enter the commission number and on the top you can see VIN. If it's created, it will have that VIN#, if not it will show VIN# - .
Do you have that app installed?

@@Avalon911As expected, our cars are buddies in the production line.
Mine entered V260 On Thu 2/1, a day after yours.
Did yours get out of the bodyshop or change to V270-300?
My car doesn't show a vin# yet though.

I'm so excited, I don't think I was ever that excited about something materialistic

FYI I see a lot of comments about cars being 2 days early or something along those lines. Every expected date is always a Friday. That simply means that action is expected to occur in the week leading up to that Friday. The car is never 2-4 days "early", that is just how the system works.

Outstanding! I didn't check on mine today. I'll do so early next week.

Not trying to be argumentative, but SBAR's Expected Date for Entry to Body Shop was next Friday but it went yesterday. Apparently, they do go early sometimes.

Ya I didn't word that the best. I was just meaning every date listed for expected is always a Friday. If it goes that Tuesday it is not really early it is just how their system works. I was meaning it isn't really 2,3 or 4 days early as that is within the expected week ending on Friday.
You are correct in that they do go early like the week before. Pretty regularly actually.

Well, i just hope it catches the 247 VIKING CONQUEST - 2/15 or 188 HOEGH BANGKOK - 2/26.
2/15 may be cutting it too close, but i think 2/26 out of Emden should be doable.

Are you guys all getting your build update by calling the dealer regularly, or have you found a way to get the Porsche delivery app to work?

I haven't been able to figure out how to get the info without calling the dealer.
