I work in the auto industry, and this is from my buddy's workplace (Audi) store shipping info. I don't have access to VW group stuff personally.

Lake Wanaka has arrived in Halifax. I got the "arrived at destination port" email within an hour of it docking. On to the final step! Let's hope it gets loaded on to a truck/train and heads off to the dealership in the next couple of days.

Congrats!! I am still stuck there but this is good news since our cars came on the same ship so hopefully mine clears soon and gets on a truck too.
Keep us posted on the next steps until you take delivery pls!!

First glimpse of the interior


Final production pics! Looks like I lost the tire lotto with the Goodyears, oh well.

I initially though of the same thing, then I used google maps to look at the canal. If you look at the St. George's bridge's photos, you will see a picture of the Supreme Ace going past it. Yeah, it looks narrow, but I guess deep enough for major shipping. It's also a shorter route than going down to the Chesapeake. I bet it leaves via the Chesapeake on it's way down to points south.

I'm still waiting for a ship to Baltimore. Looks like the latest best news is possibly at the end of the month.

very interesting. I did not know that.

The sunshine ace is docked right now and will go to Baltimore. It’s called Sparrows Point.

Porsche’s map is wrong, it will enter and leave via the Chesapeake. Have followed a few cars into Baltimore over the past couple years.

The arrival port is Baltimore. Then truck up to dealership in cherry hill nj. Early August is the estimated milestone arrival. Hopefully early fall based on others experiences?

Not everybody’s car has been delayed. There was definitely a bunch of them this past few months but they seem to be getting a little better. My dealership is in Maryland. They have been getting cars steadily on time from Germany. What does your track your dream say?

This is from vesselfinder.com. I really don’t like how the ship seems to be leaning although I am sure it is just fine.

Go home, Sunshine Ace, you're drunk.

At least it's not the Felicity Ace.
