Car arrived in Emden on the 10th. Missed the conductor and now my delivery got punted two weeks to 11/25. TYD projecting it loads on a boat on 10/28 so…18 days total sitting in Emden.

Default Production Time

How long does production usually take? At first, it was 4 days; today it changed to 11 days. It pushed my delivery date out 7 days.

I just got the email this morning with available dates beginning in December....ugh...but it's worth it because my baby girl is going on this trip so it needs to work with her school/flight schedule and the semester finishes in December anyway. She's one of those gifted, mega smart, doing calculus when she was 14 kind of people, and doesn't get excited about much. This, she's excited for and that means the world to me so the wait just became meaningless.

Don't put too much faith in TYD. They move the goal posts constantly and it's more of a guideline than anything else I've learned. One day TYD says my car was in Emden ahead of schedule, the next I hear from my SA telling me no, it actually arrived in Emden on the 11th and made it on to the SFL Conductor the same day which he's never seen before. It's bizarre. And the actual delivery date has been moved all over the place. When I began the process TYD seemed accurate, now, not so much. Call your SA with any questions cause they know the real deal because there's money involved. Good luck.

Dude my car is on the SFL Conductor and TYD says my delivery date to Jacksonville is November 4th, and to Atlanta is December 2nd! Don't trust TYD completely. Call your SA for answers.

Agreed. Called my SA and he confirmed I’m still in Emden. However the Violet Ace is loading right now, so hopefully I can hop on there. Fingers crossed.

I sure hope so! My fingers are crossed for all of us going through the process. Our cars can't be delivered soon enough I know, but it is what it is and sweating over it won't make the cars get here any faster. I know a lot of us have many irons in the fire, but in the big scheme of things, we don't have any problems compared to most. Life could be much worse. Need to remind myself of that from time to time.

Mine made it on the Violet Ace as well!

Strangely, I had production photos show up for a few days but now they are gone from TYD.

So help me out here. Mine just updated to say it’s on the Violet Ace as well. However, it’s saying 10/28 is the estimated completion date. Does that mean it’s estimated to get on the Violet Ace by then, or is it already on the ship, and 10/28 is when it’s supposed to de-board in the US?
