You folks think it's torture having the car stuck in Emden with no idea when it's going to move - try this one....
I'm doing PECATL delivery, and have a delivery date scheduled for June 21.
Car arrived in Jacksonville on April 24.
Car sat in Jacksonville until May 31, when it was transferred to PECATL.
This morning I get an email to claim the car in Porsche Connect, but I can't connect to the car fully without getting access to the car, which I won't be able to do until my pickup date of June 21.
There's a part of me that thinks that they want the car on display at PECATL as part of the 75th Anniversary celebration... And there's a part of me that's concerned that since it was moved to PECATL three weeks before delivery that strangers attending PECATL's 75th Anniversary celebration will get to touch and sit in my car - or worse DRIVE my car....

That’s very strange. Have you asked why they sent the car to PECATL?! I would try to get to the bottom of that.

Honestly, i'd rather it was at PECATL than sitting in Jacksonville where it had been for over a month. Pretty sure there's a protected covered garage for customer deliveries at PECATL and probably not one in Jacksonville.
I don't even mind if they put it on display for the next few weeks - as long as folks aren't sitting in it or touching it, let alone driving it.
Did anyone else with a West-Coast-US-bound car have their TYD update today with dates that seem to line up with getting on the Glovis Sigma? I know the “left port” date is usually a placeholder, but I’m hoping against hope that my car somehow makes it aboard despite just making it to Emden today.

Mine hit completion date on 5/31 and as of today (6/1) is showing on the way to Emden but my SA told me earlier today that the car is at the port waiting for a vessel so I think my TYD just hasn’t updated. The future dates are the same as they were the past few weeks. (I also never got my 4th pic).
All the signs point to us getting on Glovis Sigma so let’s hope it happens!

Thanks for sharing your experience! I think you can email Porsche NA to request your 4th production picture. Yep, hoping both our cars make it on Glovis Sigma. My future dates were similar to yours until my TYD moved to step 7 around noon Pacific today.
I've been pleasantly surprised by TYD accuracy in my experience--status changes and production pictures all appeared very promptly with minimal delay from the actual milestones. I was expecting much worse based on all the experiences I've read about here.

I'm missing mine (I have the first three, and my car has been at the port for a week), so I'd be interested in knowing which email address to use for this request.

Well, a miracle just happened. I got notification that my 4S Cab build is finally complete after being shown a delay to July 12. The car is now projected for delivery July 21.
