Well @robert310 , good news is that Glovis Chorus has left Lazaro Cardenas and is on its way to San Diego. Current ETA broadcast by the ship is 11/26 at 6pm PT, but the port schedule has updated its ETA to 11/25 at 4:30am. With a bit of luck we might be ahead of schedule.

Finally placed my order and paid a deposit over the weekend.. my order is based on a Carrera in Aventurine Green / Truffle Brown with Sports Exhaust / Sport Chrono, RS Spyder wheels and a few other bits and bobs but is actually for the notional Carrera T if and when it's available. It's on the understanding that should no T be announced I can take them up on a standard Carrera. And now the waiting game begins

Despite my 991 username this will be my first Porsche!

Morning. No updates for me on My Porsche (still show's order created, wanting to see production photos) or TYD (shows on ship, but enters into port shows July 2021).

But the good news is Siem Cicero is docked in Davisville. Next stop Jacksonville, then Houston. Nice to have the ship back in radar range.

I wasn't as fortunate and, while my car started production last week on 11/9/21 (as TYD now correctly shows), it is now saying that it won't complete production until 12/10... over a month!

Here's the impact:
Original --> 11/17/21 TYD Update
Begin production: 11/12/21 --> 11/09/21
Completion: 11/19/21 --> 12/10/21
Arrival at Dealer: 12/31/21 --> 01/21/22

I'm disappointed.
As everyone said... don't put too much stock in TYD's moving around of dates.

My TYD shifted back forward a little bit last week to show delivery by 1/7/22. That said, my SA just confirmed that my car finished production yesterday (a Sunday!) and is waiting for rail transport to Emden. Production took 12 days for mine.

The rest of his PVMS tracking is showing the same extended timeline as my TYD but we are optimistic that it will be better.

Does anyone have an updated PWL shipping schedule they can share? The last one I saw was from week 42 and the last boat included with actual dates is the RCC Prestige leaving this week.

I don’t know of a more recent PWL schedule. But lately, the majority of ships carrying Porsches (at least to the west coast) aren’t showing up on the PWL schedule. Attached are the two other shipping schedule (the ships that load up at Emden are almost certain to carry Porsches).

Long time Cayenne driver (10 plus years) ready to make the plunge into the 911 world!
Put my name on a list on October 24 for a Targa 4, Dolomite Silver loaded up with Premium Package, Sport Package, 930 Leather Package in beige w/ 14 way power seats.

I have plenty of time probably till I get my allocation, any other trim recommendations that 911 drivers think are a necessity? Lane Keep Assist, Adaptive Cruise Control seem counter intuitive as an add on for a car like a 911, I can't see myself popping on the cruise control and sitting back, but maybe for a long ride it's worth it.

Lane change assist is good (don't think they have a lane keep assist for the 911??). Agree with you on the ACC - but I'm not a fan of it period. And I'm not crazy about the big cyclops camera you get with it.... dominates the look of the front end. Consider the 18 way seats unless you've had a chance to try both. I had 14 ways in a 991.2 and 18 ways in the 992 - really worth it to me. So unless you're on the extra wide side, the extra support and bolstering really make a difference. As described by others - you sit "on" the 14 ways and "in" the 18s.

Load it up. You don't want to take delivery and wish you had added something.

I have it all via the Premium Package and Porsche Inno Drive (PID). Lane change assist, Lane keep assist, Active Lane Keep and ACC. Just received my ride last week and tested it all out. Works as advertised ALK is probably best for long road trips on rural highway without much traffic. Lane change assistant is great.

Glovis Supreme seems to be delayed from that schedule. It's anchored off the coast and expected in Bremerhaven tomorrow.

Yea, it looks like it.

I just found out my car has been cruising on the Pleiades Leader since leaving Emden on Nov. 5. Looks like it’ll make a stop at Panama before it arrives at San Diego (scheduled Dec. 1). But Panama isn’t on the schedule so I wonder if it’s for fuel? Anyone else on the Pleiades Leader?
