The “Green Ridge” has arrived in Bremerhaven, so let’s see if it’s heading to Emden after it leaves that port.





The “Siem Confucius” is en route to Emden.




It still remains to be seen if the “Glovis Sigma” heads to Emden as well.

Anyone have an idea of how many Porsches are on it?
Apparently 4,000 cars! but no details on # of Porsche's
I read 1,100 Porsches, 280 or so 911's. The count on the 911's came from a person who had spoken to someone at his dealership about his car.

Appreciate the update. I’ve been following both the Green Ridge and the Glovis Sigma.

I can post now I think..

Ordered 2/16.
Freeze Date 4/19

ETA 7/1

First Porsche, long time BMW guy - 50th birthday present...

didn't realize I've been on here, mostly as a lurker since 2003!

https://www.porsche.com/microsite/po...px?c=/PN6UFE29

Colour has been the hardest thing for me to lock down. I'm never going to track it, and want it to be sporty but comfortable, so ruled out the Sport Chrono

I don't think you should rule out the sports chrono just because you are not going to track it. Nice to have handy when overtaking, I think they all come with a 20 sec or so burst at the push of a button

OK all - I've been following this thread for the better part of a year but it's time for me to punch out. I got to drive it a whole 20 miles dropping it off to PPF/Ceramic/Tint. I won't have the car for the weekend but will hopefully be done for next.

Good luck to all and I can confirm that in the end, it is so worth the wait

Congratulations on your delivery. Very nice spec. I’ve never liked white for my cars, but it sure does look nice on a 911. Great to see the manual transmission too.

Where did you take it for PPF?

The color on this one is actually chalk. It looks slightly different every time I look at it (or photograph it).

I took my 911 to Auto Armour here in San Diego. They've done work on my previous car and I was really happy with the result.

People often mistake Chalk for white. Even when I show people pictures of my car they think it’s white initially. Chalk changes depending on lighting for sure.

When you are on the last leg of the journey and you get home from a Saturday of running around and get this email after watching the car be built and travel across the Atlantic.....
