For those of you who are doing ED and are curious what happens to TYD: my car finished production in late July, but My Overview recently changed from Phase 4 to now a default page with "About my vehicle" link to manage my car. It thinks my vehicle is in my possession. TYD is not offered to me anymore at this juncture -- I was hoping to continue to use TYD to track my car from port, to vessel, and finally to dealer after my ED pickup. Anyways, off to Germany in 19 days!

AirTag under the seat! Do people do this?

This is my 8th Porsche 911. It will get here sooner or later. I don't care where it is this month. Here is a picture of it:

Working on configuring a new 911 GTS coupe and I have it all figured out except the stereo. I have three other cars with the Bose system (Porsche) but never the Burmeister.
I have a Burmeirster in my 2020 S560 and it doesn't sound all that much better than the Bose stereos in my sports cars. Is this upgraded stereo worth thousands over the Bose system?
Has anyone listened to both systems?

I ordered it on mine… but i hear it’s a waste of money because it’s only 1/2 the system installed in the Cayenne and Panamera. I’m a huge audiophile so I know I’d regret not getting it.

Makes no sense to me. We shall see.
Mine just got to Emden. I guess I can expect about a month for it to load on a ship?

Yes I've listened to both systems. I opted again for the Bose not because of the cost of the Burmeister but because I really prefer to hear the engine. The Burmeister is superb and there's no question that it's Superior in my opinion to the Bose which almost sounds mono to me. Again I listen to some music when I'm driving but I would really rather hear rummmnmmmmm... That sound makes me so happy I could weep.
I guess it comes down to what you prefer to listen to.

All options on sound systems on Porsche cars are awful.

My two newer cars are standard sound systems. It's all good and links to Bluetooth for digital sound. I like Pandoro.

It's a fast sports car and never a sound system provider. It's better to listen to the flat-six engine.

Does anyone have the latest shipping schedule? TYD had my car scheduled for vessel on 8/19, but this morning the status changed to 'on vessel.' Not sure if thats a mistake or not.

Don't see an updated schedule, but the San Martin left Emden today heading toward Davisville.
