Anybody else here on the Siem Aristotle heading to the East Cost?. Left Emden on the the 4th, today in Rotterdam. Expected at Baltimore on Dec 17th.

 

Siem Aristotle has left Rotterdam and is on its way to Halifax.

 

@wannarun Is the car dirty in the 2nd pic or is that how NBM looks? Seems dirty pre-prep especially the rear window.

 

Hi Hadlyme, sorry for the delay, my SA finally answered me. He said it's "3M ceramic tint." I assume that's the "3M Ceramic IR" product because I don't think 3M offers any other ceramic tint for cars. My tint is 35% on all windows (except windshield, which has no tint). Hope that helps!

 

Just about after tax. I got my set from Suncoast - https://www.suncoastparts.com/product/PKCLEAR992.html

They do free shipping for orders over $400…I’m sure you can find some other goodies to buy!

 

Thank you very much 🏁🎊🎉

 

Looks as though the Felicity Ace is next up for those of us headed for Davisville RI.

My TYD was updated to show my cabriolet about to be on that ship. The vessel docks in Emden around 5 pm est today and appears to be leaving for Halifax and Davisville , I believe, Wednesday or Thursday, Seems to be a lot of vehicles on this boat.

Getting closer!!!!!!!

 

Thank you very much. Enjoy your new Porsche, it’s beautiful 🏁🎊🥂

 

You're welcome, and thank you! Can't wait to see yours!

 

My TYD is showing that I will be going onto Felicity Ace as well. The current schedule says that it will get to Davisville on 12/22 after a stop in Halifax on 12/20.

 

I don't think I'm going to make Felicity Ace according to my TYD, but that boat doesn't appear to stop in Jacksonville either way, so not sure it even matters. After that it's not showing what the next boat is in in the entire month of December, so i'm looking at quite a while it appears...

 

Ok, I'm officially "waiting" for my 992. Just a base Carrera, but my first P car new order. Freeze point reached, ETD 80 days - Tick tock....

Well Everyone after selling my 992 4S coupe back to my dealer in early August which I also got an allocation for the Targa I have been waiting for - 4 months and 17 days from allocation to delivery (not bad), I am out of this thread, my dealer will be transporting my car to me hopefully later this week. Here are a few pics of my 992 Targa 4S (Manual) in Jet Black Metallic..

I am having a full PPF (to help with the black color and cleaning), as well as full ceramic exterior and interior. I also had my dealer active the PSE in the PCM a software update (not as loud as a full PSE, but better than not having it activated) - I wanted the quad pipes, so thought I would do at least the PSE enablement.

 

Looks great; and with the proper number of pedals.

I find myself waffling between jbm and just regular old black. I'm worried that JBM will look 'soft' -- like a black that couldn't fully commit to its blackness. How does it look in person - pretty much black, or noncommittal and you wish you'd gotten black?

 

I have had the "plain" black 911 (a few times) as well as Basalt Black, CWM, agate grey, GT Silver, and also medium ivory on a 1972 911T, - so have had a few different flavors before this one.

JBM looks 90% regular black in most lighting conditions. Bright sunlight or under my LED lighting in my garage you do see the metal flakes and gives the color a little depth (think almost a grayish and maybe a little bit of blue). Can't go wrong with either Black or JBM. I did the full PPF on this one, and would 100% do it on normal black, as it will swirl (or show swirls) much more than JBM. I did this one, as my first targa was basalt black, and it is a very similar color to JBM. So more nostalgic than a preference of one over the other.
