That's great! I guess mine hasn't reached the dealership yet otherwise my SA would have contacted me. What dealership do you use?

You are correct. It is at dock in Sparrow Point.

Baltimore is not the issue. When your car comes it will be expedited out and on a truck ASAP.

At smaller ports, I've noticed that when a ship is stopped outside the Bay it's usually because it's waiting for another RoRo vessel to finish unloading at the dock.
Last month, I had a GT3 on the Glovis Clipper and it was stopped just off the coast of Santa Cruz for nearly 12 hours waiting for another RoRo at the Port of Benicia to finish unloading.
There's really no need to head into the Bay and create even more congestion and burn fuel.

I’m pretty sure that PTS is a no go for 2023.

Out of curiosity what’s the practical use/need for the night vision? I’ve always wondered….

Too bad on the PTS as personally I think the color you chose looks great.

Mainly deer but other animals too. Just a possum or armadillo will destroy the front fascia. Night vision is a lot less expensive.

I was joking actually. I just wanted to see how expensive I could make a base model I have a request in for a T,
PPCNPRD6
http://www.porsche-code.com/PPCNPRD6

But... I set my limit for $130k on it because of the value proposition. I really want the Aerokit, and I have been pricing the T, S, and GTS variants out for comparison at this point because I am starting to doubt the T's value at $130k now. Thoughts?

I’ve been wrestling with the same thing for a couple weeks. There are a few expensive options I really want Aerokit gloss black is one of them. I’ve just descided I’m going to keep the car for a long time (I don’t normally) and order exactly what I want. I’m in the $150k range built the way I want it.

I normally buy used trade annually that’s $5k a year cost minimum. If I keep the t for 5 years or longer I can live with the ownership cost and I’ll have exactly what I wanted.

This is my second new Porsche that I’ve had the chance to spec. I did good on the first one but still have a regret or two. I’m not going to let it happen again.

hope this helps

Anyone else have TYD say you were supposed to be loaded onto the vessel on Dec 30, but no updates since, and the counter is still going down to day until delivery? Not sure where my car is, but delivery in 10 days seems unlikely haha.
