Loving it.
Congrats ffm99x! Very nice choice. Btw, was the track still worth it in early winter? I'm doing late winter ED (hopefully) and wondering if it's worth to pickup from Leipzig to get on the track or just pickup from Stuttgart and save the 4-5 hours drive since I plan on going south to Switzerland anyway.

@macmac Yes absolutely. It was dry. Wet conditions might be a different story. But the instructor was amazing and I learnt a lot in the 30 minutes. Also without asking my friend could drive another 30 minutes (appr.).
I enjoyed it. They only decide not to do the track experience when there is actually snow on the track.

Where is the sideskirts, have you seen the car in real life without them ? It looks really really cheap. The sideskirts makes the car look lower and wider.

Lucky! Thanks for the info, @ffm99x . My build is locking in a few days so I decided to switch to Stuttgart pickup. Track time would have been nice but I'm guessing the likelihood of being able to drive on the track in late March would be very small.

when was it built? Mine was built last week. I am curious how long it will wait at the port before it is shipped.

My 992 is on Glovis Star scheduled to arrive in San Francisco (Benecia) tomorrow 😀
it shipped out on 11/08 almost one month to make the trip around to the west coast.

Does anyone know how long before the car is release through customs?

I’m hoping my car comes in sometime in the next week or so depending on how long it’s held at the port.
anyone experience the wait time at the port ? does it have to sit and go through customs?

Observation:
My Track Your Dream updated... It now says my order submitted 12/5... which is odd as the actual date was 11/12. It now lists all my options with codes and descriptions... where before it just listed codes. All other dates stayed the same with a Dealer Delivery of 4/17.

Anyone else on Primrose Ace? Scheduled to arrive at port on 12/16, delivery date on 12/27.

Order was placed on 10/18. A lot faster than I expected.
