I almost am starting to think that step 3-6 are interchangeable. Anyone with a delay could be somewhere in there, just depends what TYD shows.
For example I have been stuck on step 3 since Jan 04.
Another interesting fact is the Canadian TYD gives ranges for dates after step 4.
I think (hope) maybe steps 6 and 7 are interchangeable but I suspect steps 4 and 5 are accurate. If the TYD is taken literally then the red step is still to be completed. I spent a couple of minutes poking around the json data in the TYD web page and nothing jumped out at me as being different from what's shown on the page. The steps all have a date type where I looks like a step in the past that's been completed, C is the current step and P are all the steps in the future. The vehicle status is in the json as well (mine shows V300) but I never saw anything that would tell me a status or location not shown on the page itself.
So, here is some interesting scoop for anyone who left Emden 3/6 on the Violet Ace. As a close cousin of the Felicity Ace, now well fastned to the bottom of the Atlantic. The Violet Ace appears to be making no headway off the cost of England. It is not in the main traffic pattern, moving in a bad direction, and sadly my T and certainly a few other 992's are on it. Hope this is just a minor setback and not another smoldering Taycan. Maybe a fouled spark plug on the diesel! You can find this info on VesselFinder.com. The arrival date to Halifax just moved out 3 days to the 18th. I'll be checking again in the morning hoping she is back on track and underway for Halifax. This Porsche buying experience is certainly time consuming and somewhat entertaining! Will be glad when its over.
Graduated from this thread! Picked up my GTS at PEC Atlanta on Thursday. 800 miles on it already, and have about 500 more miles to go before I get back to DC. PEC delivery was amazing, and highly recommended. My dealer, Porsche Bethesda was also great. Everything went as they said it would. No ADM, and very responsive to my too frequent calls to them. SA Brandon was great.
Very nice color! Are you getting a ppf and have a place yet? I’m still waiting but will be in Northern VA. I got my Panny from Bethesda and still stop by to chat with those guys.
Your car is stuck at the same spot mine is, except my dates for steps 6 and 7 are showing as 5 days prior to yours. Your screen shot shows the same dates as mine for steps 8 and 9. I'm not sure if this means our cars will be on the next ship (Glovis Sunrise) or if they're in limbo waiting for some unknown part(s).
BTW: is your car chalk or white? Either way, looks good!
just checked my TYD today and seems its getting delayed again for another month...
TYD question. I was supposed to hit V300 yesterday (3/9) but hasn’t turned red. Does this usually mean standby for a delay and new dates? Or can there be a TYD update delay but dates still the same?
