My wife's 992.2 Base Carrera is on the same boat. We are in AZ, so it comes through San Diego. The big question now is how long it will sit at the port getting approved before she gets it since it's a 2025 and the new model.
My Turbo S is on this ship as well, SA is expecting it 30 Aug.
Anyone else have similar chain of events? I woke up Saturday morning to email with link to my 3 production photos. The caption on one of them says production done and car headed on journey to me. But it’s now been 30 hours since and I’m still showing as step 4 in production in TYD. Anyone seen that? Figured I’d get photos after or upon going to step 5, not before!
Anyone know what ship might have left Emden on the 24th bound for Benicia? I used the "Inspect" trick others documented here to try and find the ship IMO #, and found the code area I was looking for... except my TYD is currently missing a "currentlocation", and the little car picture that shows where it thinks it is. It says it left the port on the 24th, then no further ETAs listed in the app. I know the Inspect trick on the webpage works because I have another Cayenne in production too and it has the currentlocation at the plant in Bratislava. Vesselfinder only shows the last two days departures without a subscription.
Have you expanded the "currentlocation" drop down....it will provide additional details if you are on a ship.
I say "IF" because, TYD is not very accurate once the car arrives at the port. It will only report what Porsche has inputted into the shipping manifest. The actual shipping manifest details are the responsibility of the actual shipping company. So TYD may show something completely different than the how, when and the type of transport.
A missing "ident: IMO #####" under the position dropdown, may mean the shipping company has not documented the loading of the car, but unlikely since it's the only way Porsche can track the cars vessel of loading.
Very possible a glitch on the actual page.
If you're sure it's on the Sumire Leader (should have the IMO identifier number somewhere in your USM commission number details), here is today's location update...
The current position of SUMIRE LEADER is at coordinates 45.7657 N / 25.2894 W, reported an hour ago by AIS.
The vessel is in route to Panama Canal, sailing at a speed of 16.7 knots and expected to arrive there on Aug 8, 3 AM.

I’m a little confused as the ship my car was on “Lake Wanaka” and it arrived at port of Davisville Saturday morning. The boat has now left Davisville and is in route to port of Baltimore.
Does anyone know if any cars were offloaded in Davisville? It seems odd that some would be offloaded in Davisville and some in Baltimore, as they’re so close to eachother?

Anyone have any insight to this? Thanks
My GT4RS was off loaded headed to NY
Where is your dealer located? Davisville gets CT, NY, everything north of CT, Northern NJ etc
We have all seen the photos sent of the final production profile picture of our cars in the Porsche plant with the yellow frame over the top of the car.
I always wondered exactly what that structure did and how it attached to the car.
The following Youtube link shows the production process of the 911 and what those arms do starting after 59:00 into the film. Cool to see!
The TTS arrived at the dealership late Saturday, and my wife and I went by to take some pictures today, Monday. The dealership threw in a few extras in to include Track Pack PPF, clear side marker lights, Porsche battery tender and a Porsche racing jacket. Big Smile!!!
Drove this beast home on a Friday afternoon from Long Island, through NYC to NJ. Truly a memorable experience.
car was a blast, even with a manual transmission in traffic. Thanks for the support guys! Wish you guys the best of luck waiting, it’s the best part.
