This tells me they have no idea when the car will be completed as it is exactly a 3 week delay each time. Just an arbitrary number.
Ditto, I got the third picture on Friday and today got hit with a 4-week delay. I'm thinking the Bose and the leather.

TYD just updated to show me on a boat, finally, after over a month in Emden. Getting excited. It's the Dong A Glaucos, so those of you watiing for a boat in Emden, if you're headed to the US west coast, see what TYD has to say tonight. I was pleasantly surprised to get such an early notice as the boat hasn't even departed Emden yet.

Can someone help to explain why my car has been stuck at port for 3 months and counting? Destination is west coast Benicia.
SA and Porsche N. America both told me they have no insight into this.

In todays climate I make an effort to avoid stopping at gas stations in my 911 or any other place that some would be carjacker might be tempted, that's why I never leave home without my extended fuel tank (and my two friends, Mssr's Smith and Wesson).....

Sorry to hear that. Based purely on what I have heard others report here, possibilities include waiting in port for a part, or shipping damage that is being repaired. Clearly something is up, it shouldn't be in Emden for 3 months. Hang in there, it's very frustrating I know.

Which vessels transport Porsches to the west coast US? I've been eying Volkwagen Konzernlogistik boat Dong-A-Glaucos as it just left Emden and is supposed to be (eventually) heading to Benicia, CA. My car was at Emden for the last two weeks, so would be nice if it's now on a boat. Preferably to the west coast. No updates on the app.

I have to say....your spec is very unorthodox... but so beautiful. Can I ask what inspired your build? So nice....

Crazy to think it's still there. The Dong A Glaucos just left Emden and that's headed to the west coast. Hopefully your on that vessel.

Targa GTS in PTS Amethyst. I’m told It’s built and at the docks. Just got a link to update MyPorsche today and production photos were there but only these 3, no final assembly photo.

Or put a ton of miles and smile on the existing shoes and upgrade when you wear them out!
