we are on the same schedule - my concern is the factory has an extended shutdown for Xmas which probably starts next week and may have already started. I believe they don’t start production again until into the new year 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

I figured they might be out for the Holidays. My order was confirmed in August. I think I got delayed with the Heritage interior. I'm showing 3/18 delivery date. What's yours ?

The Artic Grey looks fantastic with the Aero kit. I really wanted the to Aero kit on my 23 Coupe but it was on stop sale when my order went in. I ordered Gentian Blue on a Cabriolet this time around.

congrats ‼️

I’m trading a 2023 shark blue with blue top cab - gentian was my other choice for a cab

You will love the cab

we could be on the same boat - I’m in Atlanta

Great looking Cabriolet. Funny our purchase is opposite going between Cab and Coupe. Any reason you went from Cab to Coupe ?
My Coupe trade in Aventurine Green.

I live in Atlanta but we have a summer home in Ct and the 911 stays in Ga for the summer. We also do a lot of traveling in the fall so for close to 6 months of the year (typically the best top down months) I don’t get to drive the car so I figured a coupe was the better option 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

It arrived at Davisville port on December 4, and I picked it up from the dealer on December 12. I took it directly to my detailer for Full Xpel PPF and Akarpovic installation.

What did you get installed? OAPs?

Looks like something is wrong with Siem Confucius. Anyone have any idea what’s going on?

Per my recent research 15 foot swells are really nothing for a ship that is 200m (656 ft) long and 38m (125 ft) wide.

Also keep in mind that SIEM Confucius is one of two very new ships that were launched in 2020. They are fairly advanced in comparison to the other RO-ROs that have been in use for 10 to 20 years.

Edit: The first stop, Port Davisville is possibly backlogged so they have pulled back on the throttle and went northward to potentially avoid a storm? Just a guess.

Currently #1 on the Turbo S list & my SA thinks it'll be within the next month or two - I'm guessing by Feb or March if my slot becomes available the PTS will still be unavailable, but has anyone heard any updates on the MY24 being able to do it again?
