I feel you… We requested PTS on the August 7th and were declined yesterday, the 17th.

Default On the Violet Ace

My Carrera T left Emden and is on the Violet Ace! TYD shows it headed for Baltimore but VesselFinder shows Davisville as the destination. Is that just a stop the ship makes before heading on?

Yes, my GTS is still sitting at Benicia as well. My arrival date was pushed back to 8/28.

Does anyone know what this means? I added a couple things and my build went from 200 to 170. All dates went away. PCNA didn’t know but thought the build froze early which would be cool. They said check in a week.

I got that when we requested PTS, but once PCNA advised my dealer to promptly remove the request due unavailability everything went back to where it was prior to the PTS request, but two days earlier, including my freeze date, end of production date, and dealership arrival date.

Interesting. Instead of docking the heritage leader in San Diego they moved north to Port Hueneme just north of Los Angeles. I’m assuming to get the ship further out of the track of the storm. This is where BMW unloads so I wonder if they’ll pull the cars off or wait at the storm tomorrow and then head back to San Diego.

I understand your situation. Nothing and yet everything is normal now days, specially when it comes to Porsche ordering process and even worse when it comes
to shipping and delivery, anything can happen. Your car eventually will come to you and you are going to be soo happy.😇

Should beat the worst of the storm but it’s starting to rain/blow already so they’ll be docking in less than ideal conditions and any delays could be very bad news.

Same. My car has been in Davisville since 8/15. Dealer told me earliest they will receive it is Tuesday / Wednesday. Then they do their inspection and detailing etc. looks like a 8/28 pickup.

It's probably better if the boat docks after the hurricane, anything that's getting offloaded is gonna get blasted by the storm

I think these boats stop at a few places that aren't shown on VW's shipping schedule. Probably not unplanned, just not one of the VW stops.

Crystal Ray is headed up to SD, supposedly ETA 8/22. I saw on the news that SD Port is pretty much closed for today.
