You'll probably have more pictures - and better pictures than the factory ones too...

For anyone still on the Siem Aristotle, here it is going under the Chesapeake Bay Bridge on its way out of Baltimore this evening. Courtesy of the Maryland Transportation Authority traffic cameras...

@SS22 how did figure that this is the next ship (to San Diego) and this is scheduled to be at Emden on June 13? This would be great news for me but would like to confirm the source before I get my hopes up. 😀

Tracking Glovis Superior and it should have arrived in Benicia today? Not sure, I don’t have the latest location; only 48 hours ago it seemed close enough to be there by now. If I’m lucky I’ll get it in Seattle area by this weekend or next week.

I never got any tracking information. Never received an email with any sort of tracking instructions. No photos. The only email I received was from PECLA about how the delivery experience works. I was curious about the timing so I called in and spoke to my dealer today and they told me my car has been out of production for a week or so and waiting for transport. A week ahead of schedule but still expected to arrive by the end of July. iono

I did get a model car in the mail though.

The final elevator picture came through on the app this morning! All seems to be very real now and given I’m in the U.K the car might very well be in the country already at this point.

Super excited to take delivery in a few weeks. Just hope the weather improves enough so I can enjoy getting the roof down.




My wife knows it’s coming and the type of car, but doesn’t know what final spec/colour I went for, the kids have no idea. They are going to go totally nuts! My eldest daughter has always loved Porsches from when she was a toddler so is likely to explode with the surprise 🤣

Looks like SIEM Cicero has docked at Emden.

Fingers crossed all those bound for Baltimore and her other ports get on board!

Has anyone with a car on Siem Aristotle going to Baltimore received the step 9 update?

Aristotle left Baltimore yesterday evening, but I haven’t yet hit step 9. Just curious if others are getting the update or not.

TYD shows 6/8 for step 9, but knowing the ship has been out of the port for 12hrs already, I would think step 9 should have happened. But perhaps it’s normal that it takes a day or so to register in TYD.

If there is anyone reading this that has already gone through this process, what amount of time passed between your ship leaving the port, and TYD moving to step 9?

I appear to be inching closer to acquiring an allocation. One in front of me to go. My T specs were entered into the “order demand” recently so hopefully not to much longer?

Same. I presumably disembarked in Baltimore yesterday but still step 8.

It doesn’t mean that you’re not close necessarily, but an order demand has nothing to do with an allocation. It’s only an indication of interest in an allocation.

Anyone can get an order demand at anytime, and lots of people have multiple of them. I myself have a GTS that will arrive at the dealer within the next week, but I also have two order demands with another dealership.

Whats important is that your dealer gives you an actual allocation, which will have a commission number. When you have a commission number you know you have the allocation, until that happens nothing else really matters.

I’m not arguing that you aren’t close, perhaps you are - I’m only making the point that an order demand doesn’t have any relationship to when you get an allocation.

Hopefully your allocation arrives soon, I (and almost all of us on RL) know what it’s like to wait for a long time to get an allocation. Best of luck!

I am a noob in regards to the ordering process of new Porsches.

I was informed otherwise via my sales rep whom has been with the marque for forty years.
