Official waiting room for those with a new 992 on order --- come on in !!
The days of mass market cars sitting on lots for 180+ days is over as over supply is the bane of wasted capital resources for a dealership. Porsche on the other hand was probably starving dealers of cars=revenue over the last few years. Just in time manufacturing works well, just in time car sales do not especially with the 1000's of ways to configure dozens of Porsche models. Having said that getting from the last few years to a good level of supply is hard as demand continues to grow as evidenced by 100's of deposits on just 911's waiting for allocations at my dealer alone. Multiply that by the number of dealerships in the same boat just in the US or across the world and it's a hard problem to solve keeping everything else (i.e. quality) equal.
Now back on point! Siem Aristotle FTW

The last schedule I saw had Ace on 5/25. I assume that Aristotle is loading first and doing an east coast US run. Then Ace is scheduled to hit Halifax and Houston. Then Glovis Corona headed to the US West.

Siem Aristotle is docking now. Let’s get some 911’s on this ship!
I missed Confucius, so I’m really hoping for a Step 8 update early this week showing that my GTS is headed to Baltimore.
Good luck to everyone hoping to board Aristotle!

I guess my GTS is going to miss Aristotle. It is still en route to Emden
My T has been sitting there since April. My TYD doesn’t show it getting the Aristotle (judging by departure date of 6-22). But I have hope. The ports are messed up and I don’t expect TYD to be able to control that. So I wait.

what does TYD say about you getting on this ship? Does it show it?
