My GTS goes into production next week. TYD still shows dealer arrival in first week of June (SoCal). I really hope it doesn’t delay for some reason. Is the France fiasco limited to the batch of cars from February? Are others with more recent builds getting their cars without delay?
Hope all goes well for you. I don’t know the answer to either question. But from reading posts on this site, it seems like the early February production cars were especially vulnerable. I have seen posts about other delays, but most seem to be related to other issues. Some seem to be sitting in Emden for a while, even though they skipped the French “side-trip”.
My TYD just transitioned to step 9. What's interesting is that it changed today, 4/13, which was the original date, but the date for Step 9 now shows 4/11, which was the actual date that the Glovis Sunrise docked in Benicia. Step 10 date also changed to a day earlier, 4/18. Hoping this indicates our 911 arrives at the dealer in a few days!

Mine also just updated. Step 10 moved from Apr21 to Apr19 and step 11 also moved up two days. Pretty exciting.

Same with 2 day jump. Put deposit down 22 months ago. It will get here when it gets here but still excited.
Seems like the cars dropped at Benicia are moving pretty quickly through the process.
Has anyone in the SoCal area gone beyond step 9 for cars on either the Dong or Glovis Sunrise?
I’m in the Sacramento area but purchased from a dealer down South as the local one wouldn’t budge on ADM
I was on Dong-A that docked in Benicia 10 days ago and got my car 2 days ago, in Fresno, which is either norcal or socal depending on how you divide the map.
Ship schedule for Davisville changed a bit today as well. There are three ships coming in the first week of May.
I don't get Sunshine Ace. Looks like it's going to FL, TX then MX first before hitting Davisville on it's way back.
Also Conductor keeps getting pushed back and it is sitting at anchor right outside of Emden. Not sure what the delay is. Siem Cicero is 4 days away from Emden but is suppose to get to Davisville first.

Nope, I was on the Dong-A group that unloaded in SD at the end of March and no word or anything from my SA on what the hold up is. My ETA is still 4/14. I highly doubt that. I also don't think I've seen a single person who has unloaded in SD in the last 2 ships that has been delivered their car.

That’s what I’m trying to figure out. I have yet to see anyone from those two cohorts get their cars yet.
I guess it’s better than everyone getting cars and individual ones being stuck, as that would indicate an issue with a particular car. If everyone’s stuck, it’s likely a port delay. Still sucks, but better than the anxiety of having to wonder about damage.
