It is absolutely insane...way beyond anything I could have ever imagined. The gap between the C2 and a GT3 992 is ridiculous. Altough I have not driven it to it's full capabilities yet nor tracked it, waiting for my PPF guy to take me in before.
But it is an absolute dream of a machine.

Well I had to cancel my Rennsport trip because of the delay at port for my GT3. Sitting there since 7/10. My plan was to drive from Washington state to California and take care of her breakin during that period.

They originally pushed it to 8/15 then 8/22 then 9/6 and now 9/26. I was suppose to get on the road by 9/25 but thats not looking good now.. Plus, I wanted to get PPF before the road trip. 😞

I’m waiting to hear something about my car on the Crystal Ray too. No updates still. Ship seems to be in Benicia still.

Heard anything new?

No updates on TYD yet. I heard though that the ship will be leaving Benicia at 6pm PST today, so assuming all cars will be offloaded by then. Hope we get a TYD update tonight/tomorrow

Well that’s encouraging. Seems like it’s been in port for a long time! Wonder what the delay is?

Yeah, the past few stops seemed to be done within 24h. I'm thinking it's either:

1) Maybe there are just more vehicles to offload here?
2) Hurricane Hilary caused us a delay in SD, which then caused us to get to Benicia late. Maybe the logistics in Benicia are a bit wonky due to that. For example, we were floating around in SF bay for a day or two as well, instead of docking immediately in Benicia.

My car has been sitting in JAX since 7/21, curious whether customs/certification is unusually slow this time of year. Of course I have PEC pickup scheduled for 9/28, but it would be good for TYD to update................

those seem like the most likely options. I wonder if they unload them all and then start t inspection/transport or if some are being transported already

Looks like you were right, she set sail last night, so presumably all cars are off the ship. No updates from TYD still for me though.

Yeah no update on TYD here either. I'll probably wait another 24 hours before asking my dealer. It's the first day that all vehicles are offloaded, and maybe they batch process or something, idk
TYD originally said that 8/31 would be the day it arrives at my dealer, oh well

This has been my experience, but I've been stalking my car obsessively, so much that I've figured out that TYD only updates Monday mornings after 9am PST. The day counter is every day at 5 PST.

I know... I need help!

Oh interesting, I remember getting some updates on other weekdays :O. I got one between Crystal Ray docking and leaving Emden, IIRC that was a Tuesday (like 2pm or something).

But yeah, I also like to watch the day counter count down every day . I think it goes by UTC

As of today though, it passed "0" and is showing this lol

I don’t have that indicator yet….it seems there is likely some variability to this.

Guess we’ll find out over the coming days, hopefully no major delays/long time in Benicia.

What's your TYD date for step 11? I think the UI changed to this for me because it passed that last date and cannot go negative lolol. Yeah, I pray there are no major delays :/ we are so close!
