Yes I think you are correct, Glovis Century should be the ship. My car is also hopefully coming on that same ship.

Anyone else sitting at Emden waiting for a ride? Where are you seeing your ride at? I did the hack and got the coordinates and my ride appears to be sitting at a government building of sorts? I can see navigational buoys stacked in the yard (via Google).

Same 2/10 date here, but Houston.

It's actually sitting right here in the VW parking lot in Emden, the GPS coordinates on TYD are an approximation. It's a few hundred yards from the location picture you posted. Notice that the GPS coordinates for where you are during transportation is a golf course in Dusseldorf LOL.

The car transports load where you see the current green ships on the map. That's real time from this morning. The gray areas next to the green ships are a massive VW parking lot holding thousands of cars at any given time.


Same area via satellite, not real time. To clarify, the water is actually brown, muddy brown outside the narrow lock, and dark brown/green in the inner harbor.



Arial picture of same area...

Mine is also set for boarding 2//10 on TYD but I'm west coast which doesn't really make sense since Jacksonville is a different ship than me. I think that's a holding date used by TYD, I suspect they just put it 2 weeks out and change it as needed for another 2 weeks or so. My 2/10 date doesn't actually coincide with the shipping schedule, there are 2 west coast (US) ships leaving in the next month, one is Glovis Century on 1/31 which is what I am hoping to catch, the next isn't for 3 wks after that, but neither are on or even near 2/10.

I agree with your assessment. I think they just added 2 weeks and will update like you said as we get closer to the 2/10 date. At the same time they added the delay to my TYD, other things changed like I no longer see the mock-up jpeg on the TYD landing page, now just a grey outline of the 911 profile. I still have not been able to find pictures of mine in production with the hack as well.

I do have 3 of 4 pictures of mine. The 4th picture has a html link in the hack but it shows up as no file. It's the one that shows it with the tires on.

Does anyone have interior photos of the standard brushed black aliminum trims? Really thinking of dropping the CF for it.

I went the other way and did CF. The black brushed trim had a weird color, at least to me. Had a purple hue to it when I went and looked at it in certain lights. One thing I love about this forum is we all have different tastes. Hopefully the pics help you make your decision.

According to TYD, my car is supposed to be built this Friday, Feb 3 and on a ship to the west coast Feb 10, so it looks like I've got the same holding date as you guys. If there's no ship on 2/10, what's the actual next date for a ship to the west coast?

Don't get your hopes up, my C2 build started 11/16 and I've yet to board a vessel...maybe you will be luckier.
