Lake Taupo is scheduled to be at Port Jacksonville tomorrow at 9:00am. WooooooHoooooo!!!!

I'm hoping that my Carrera S clears customs in an efficient manner. I might get delivery just before I head out to Alabama for PCA Parade!

My TYD app just updated to show delivery to dealer next week (delay of 7 days) which my dealer also confirmed through his system. The website has not yet updated but I’m assuming former is correct. So 1 week delay which is not too bad.

EDIT: FWIW, having seen the 992.2 update today, I’m glad I stuck with the 992.1 (mine’s a manual). Nothing against the refresh — performance on the new GTS looks likely to be insane — but nothing would have changed my mind for the reasons I ordered the car, namely emotion, engagement & fun over pure pace.

The front lower spoiler is detached prior to shipping and then typically re-attached by the dealer during PDI service.

The app seems to be delayed at this point. Mine was the same.

Yep.... Wolfsburg is heading there first, unfortunately for Lake Taupo folks....

Any guesses how quickly they can process the cars through customs? Conductor was there since last night and scheduled to depart today at 6pm.....my guess is they have already or are close to offloading the cars. Really hope to get the car this weekend (which is possible if they process by tomorrow or so).

I spoke with my SA and he said that it could take a week or so to get it up to Charleston, SC. I read somewhere that there is a demand for haulers and/or some are experiencing a driver shortage.

Don’t know exactly but hoping my car is on it. Waiting on Porsche to send that email! But assume it will go out in the next two days.
