TPMS is required in the US....so how are they able to clear customs with a car that isn't legal to operate in the US? Porsche sells the car to the US dealer so this doesn't add up.
listening to the news they are saying the ports are jam packed and there isn't room for the ships with incoming deliveries. apparently there are ships just parked off the coasts in some areas waiting for room to open up so it makes sense.
Yeah - at Emden, PWL has two ships anchored (Rcc Prestige and Sfl Conductor) waiting for many days to dock to pick up cars. It's not just arriving ports that are jammed up.
My CP8 came early when i checked TYD today and I noticed there is a mismatch between main site and TYD. I am just sticking with the pessimistic version so as not to get my hope high, but i am curious if anyone has experienced this and what the outcome was in terms of accuracy. Main site TYD

tyd is right. The main site takes a few days to catch up. Congrats

The dealer is tasked with much more sensitive and complex compliance items than waiting to issue registration on a car until TPMS is installed. The port isn’t sending dogs out to sniff out a car without a TPMS sensor. Let’s use our heads.

For those of us with cars on the Siem Cicero, it is currently on schedule to arrive in Baltimore at 8pm EDT tomorrow. Fortunately there are no storms in a position to interfere with that. Tropical storm Peter is not expected to get anywhere close to the US coast as it swings north so once Baltimore is done it should be good sailing southward for its remaining stops, including Houston!

Great news! My Gt3 unloads at Houston with it’s only listed bulletin being lack of a spare key.
