Huh, you're right. I assumed they got the same spring rates, just minus the helper spring.

I'm tracking my buddies car that's in Emden. Has anyone seen a different schedule other than week 12 from PWL? We are looking for the next ship to Halifax Canada

It's not out yet. I am in the same boat. Not sure if my car is actually on Emden or still waiting at the port. TYD said it's still at the port but the car was there waiting for a ship 3 days before Emden arrived in Germany

She arrived at the dealer Thursday 4/4 and I was able to take her home, Saturday 4/6 in part because I asked the dealer to not wash the car since it is going for prep, PPF and ceramic coating later this week. I am thrilled with how it looks. I absolutely love the Heritage interior however my wife is not a big fan of the pepitas…Clear side markers from @Flat6Motorsports are on order.

Cheers,

How long do dealers usually take to get them ready for delivery once they are received?

So Siem Cicero is circling off the Texas coast waiting for a slot to dock in Freeport. Maybe in a few hours it will head in. Fingers crossed!


QUOTE=anjizkit;19373925]whoo hoo.. the conductor is at free port its technically "at anchor" looks like its just gonna wait to get a slot! hopefully won't be late.

No one gets paid until you yourself pay for the car and take delivery so it is as immediate as possible

The new VW shipping schedule still has Amethyst Ace docking in Freeport today when in fact it is idling off Mexico (which the schedule says is the stop AFTER Freeport). This boat is never going to make it!

I think they just flipped the stops for the Conductor and Amethyst Ace. Give it 2 days.

I’ve seen same day. Depends on the time at which they receive your car and how busy they are.

Tell your wife that the pepita is the best part of the interior.

Would someone please link me to a post that shows us how to find out which ship our car is on, by inspecting the web browser?

I couldn’t find it when I searched.

I don't think it works anymore. Just ask your salesperson and they can easily find it.
