Default Shipping Speed Algorithims

I have my personally ordered 991 crawling across the Atlantic from Bremen through the Panama Canal to dock in San Diego where-after it will arrive at my West coast dealer a week or two later. Since mine is pre-sold I assume it is on a slow ship whereas unsold speculative cars probably get hydrofoils so Porsche can churn the cash. Any mathematicians out there to calculate the break even point? Anyone want to go twosies on chartering a 747?

I was told that custom ordered cars have priority over dealer inventory.

My boat left Bremen on 1/28 and docked in San Diego on 2/25. It cleared US Customs on 2/28 and then went to PDI. Went through PDI and was released to Transportation on 3/6. Finally arrived at the dealer in Portland on 3/11.
