After a relatively smooth ride I'm leaving this thread behind because my car has arrived! I have to wait a few more days for the PPF/Ceramic to be completed, but I got to see my car in the flesh yesterday.
I'm grateful that on first blush I'm happy with all of my decisions. Helpfully a nice gentleman parked his GT Silver 991 Turbo right next to me so I could confirm I really do prefer Dolomite. The manual was lovely. The 930 leather pack was great, and the default interior trim was real nice with the truffle brown.
One note on the chip delays: I ordered the electrically adjustable steering column, which is delayed, so in order to deliver cars they're apparently just delivering them with manually adjustable columns and the dealer will retrofit once the shortage is over. I'm very happy with that solution. No mention of TPMS, I think that's in the past but I forgot to ask/check the dash.
Cheers and happy waiting. This was my final timeline:
03/05: Order Placed
04/15: Change Freeze
04/30: Scheduled for Production
05/10: Start Production
05/17: Production Completed - I received 2 photos of the car in semi-assembled state
05/18: Ready for Transport
05/20: In Transit to Emden
05/21: Arrival at Emden
05/28: I'm on a Boat! (Siem Aristotle)
06/10: Enter Port (Davisville)
06/10: Port Processing Complete
06/14: Arrival at dealer
Looks like the Mediterranean Highway is leaving Emden. Hoping I'm on it, but no confirmation yet. Got to Emden on 5/25.
Normally your TYD would be showing the name of the ship by now if you're on it - and that's a long time to be stuck in Emden. Several others who got to Emden well after you have been confirmed on that ship. Have you asked your dealer to have a look at the PSVM system to make sure your TYD information is up to date?

It hasn't updated for me, but under the "on vessel" checkpoint it now has the name of the ship. Also, my SA told me I'm supposed to be on it. Yep, that's a long time at Emden. No idea why
