Funny, for me, the overview page went to 2 of 4 on 8/13, before my freeze date (9/30). TYD went to milestone 3, scheduled for production, 10/21. So the overview was actually ahead. No real logic to it I guess! Just looking forward to actual start of production so I can stop crossing my fingers for my Aerokit config😊.

Thank you, that's interesting!

The color looks awesome in person. It's similar to the color of the original Bullitt mustang. At least under the shop lights - it's a nice medium green. I went with painted intakes, mirrors and skirts and that was definitely the right move. Right now it's a work in progress

Default Length of time in port
My 992 Carrera S Cab is due in Baltimore in three days. For those with recent experience, how long did the car sit at port prior to its being shipped to the dealer? Years ago, a car I ordered showed up at my dealer in Chicago two days after it hit port in Charleston. I certainly don't expect that, but hope to see the car within two weeks of the ship's arrival.

Congrats; great-looking spec
Curious what you spec'd for the interior
Mamba green stitching to synch vs the exterior?

JAX port?

Sorry to hear that - I know it's a major bummer. I would guess there is a stop sale on your car because of absent TPMS module - the dealer's system should show if there are any issues like that .

Just froze. I have 81 days left. What the hell did you people do for that amount of time? This can't be healthy for me to do every day.

Just when you wrap your arms around how you're going to handle the 81 day wait, you'll login and find out that it has jumped to 145. Then you'll lose your Flippin mind. Good luck
