Delivered Leipzig, May 8, 2014.
Returned to Stuttgart, May 26, 2014
Exit Port of Emden June 23, 2014
Entry Port of Halifax July 3, 2014
PDI In, & PDI finished, July 3, 2014
Released for transport - Monroney printed, July 3, 2014

Arghh!
Why 15 days to get out of port??
Hurricane Arthur hit Halifax on July 5th; derailment at Brockville, July 10th; floods in Manitoba delaying rail traffic; WTF next???

I think this is worse than the wait to get to Leipzig!

EU Delivery: 05/07/14
Dropoff : 05/23/14
On Vessel: 06/26/14 (man it was sitting 4 weeks in Germany)
ETA San Diego :07/17/14 (arrived on schedule)
Delivery to Customer: Est. 07/22/14

I guess I got real unlucky here ... should have been 4-8 weeks, but I'm gonna push 9 weeks, the boat has not arrived in Germany yet (looks to be outside Portugal heading North as of 06/21/14). Any other with ED, can you comment on time from drop-off till ship ? (I was hoping for 1-2 weeks at the most).

After monitoring the boat from Germany to San Diego, the boat is now has now left Oxnard (first San Diego, then Oxnard, then ???). I assume my car got offloaded in San Diego (was the port on the papers) some time Thursday.

Dealer told me it can take 3 days to offload the cars (I guess that's including driving them off, customs, check and transport out of the dock). Was really hoping for a phone call tomorrow morning, but that's unlikely ... well at least just a few more days ... and that's a good thing, my M3's AC stopped working (most likely not fully repaired after that 1:1 with a deer).

I'm hoping the car is done now (I try to only bug the dealer once a week, if that...), will hit the port inside a week from now, make the port of Houston by August 13th, and that I can pick it up in Dallas by August 20th. We'll see...

Completion: 07/15/14
Entry Emden: 07/16/14

Should get loaded this week and on its way to Houston...

Still should be picking it up around August 20, but if it hadn't just missed the previous ship at Emden... :banghead:

Hi all. My first 911 completed production yesterday, 7/30. I haven't been able to get all of the stats from the dealer that this thread is looking for but I'll fill in what I can!! I am DEEP in the "7 year old, the week before Christmas phase..."

Use http://www.pwl.de/en to find your shipping schedules.

Fresno Dealer expects December delivery, possibly January 2015. How long after order is put in system before the dates are available to the dealer from Porsche?

BrandoU2 08-01-2014 08:03 AM

Thanks for the websites for shipping UT! There's nothing but blank space in the San Diego column right now. I reckon that will change. Do you know which ship your car is on? Gotta post a few photos when it shows up.

That schedule should fill up more after the European summer break, but it does seem like there's always fewer West Coast runs.

My MY15 C2S is on the Mermaid Ace, which should pop up on terrestrial tracking again on Monday, somewhere by St. John's, Newfoundland, Canada on it's way to R.I. and then Houston. Maybe I should run up to St. John's, curl a few ends, pick up a big pup and the car? Or maybe not... ;)

I'm sure a few pics of the car will show up once it does!

Get a fix date as well - then you'll know when you can't make any more changes to the order...and between now and October and reading this forum, you'll probably want to... :D
