so there are multiple US stop.

Does that means your local dealer maybe getting the car from multiple different port (based on what the ship's scheduled/route dictate) ?

Just curious if anyone who just had their cars come off the line had received the final build pic. I received the two from paint and body but not the final pic I see many post never showed up.

Yes this has happened to many. It may end showing up afterwards or you can try to find it using F12 in chrome. You can find instructions on how todo this on one of the previous pages.

Mine went into production on the 8th and I haven't seen a picture yet...what's the normal wait time to see photos?

Is yours done the production phase? Mine is finishing production on May 17 and I've only got 2 photos as well.

It is done and supposedly on its way to the port. I have read where some get pictures later in the process (like after it is already on the ship) and some get none at all but ultimately, just want the car but would be nice to have the pic/pics as well. However, I can’t complain as it has only been 3.5 weeks since I found the allocation, sent in my deposit, got to spec it long past the freeze date, and car is already built! Hopefully my luck will continue in both getting the final build pics and not too many delays but that may be asking a bit much 😁

If any of the photos have people in it, you will not receive those. Some get all four, some get less... I only received 3 during my January build timeframe...

I had pics almost immediately after production started last week but have no idea what is normal as it seems to hit and miss. I received these two together:

SFL Conductor appears to be drifting in the middle of the Atlantic (for the last few hours at least) -- uh oh ...

Anyone else slightly concerned that the SFL Conductor has been essentially idling in the Atlantic Ocean all day, and according to vessel finder at least, no longer shows eta nor coordinates to Davisville? This isn’t adding to my high blood pressure at all, lol.

Yes, that was my post earlier. Based on some quick searches, didn't see any obvious storms or weather conditions that would suggest stopping in the middle of the Atlantic to be prudent. Ships do idle offshore due to port congestion though I would think somewhat proximate to destination -- if there are anticipated delays onshore, then I understand slow steaming to be the usual course (fuel saving). Of course I'm not a mariner and foregoing is mildly informed speculation. Have now gone down an internet rabbithole on Felicity Ace, etc. Perhaps others have seen similar behavior based on obsessive vessel tracking?

Perils of access to too much information ...
