I'm running into the same delays. I was supposed to be shipped this month and got stuck in production after getting pic of finished car. New delivery date 8/17. To add fuel to the fire, I'm watching similar builds breeze through production and delivered to the port. With the port delays added I'm thinking fall - winter delivery. I'm starting to look for snow tires, Lol.

I was told my delivery was memorial day. My dates are the same, I've been in limbo since 4/27 with a new date of 7/12.

It really has sucked the joy out of buying this car.

Looks like the SFL Conductor is docked at Halifax.

Let's hope that load whatever US cars bound for Europe quickly and the winds/weather is favorable for a quick trip to Emden.

Where she will load @RedBiker @Just J @Cartod @Alex.In.M0tion @johny221 @robopp @wrksaf912 and my GTS for a quick and safe trip to Baltimore or Houston!

I'm hoping we all get luckier and a boat from one of the other carriers that VAG uses, like Glovis, puts in at Emden and loads our cars before the Conductor gets there.

That would be even better!

Is the Glovis scheduled for Baltimore?

Glovis Superior is finally in San Fran but has been at anchor since the early morning of 6/9. I suspect it will unload early next week for our west coast deliveries.

No Glovis boats in Emden at the moment - hoping one we don't know about comes in. Same for the "Ace" boats - the Violet Ace currently at Emden rarely stops in Baltimore so I'm not counting on it, but maybe another one will come in.

My Sa confirmed I am on the SFL Composer. She is steaming for Davisville RI and then on to Houston. I hope your car get moving soon. The wait is agonizing.

Still patiently waiting for the Sunshine Ace to land at Houston. Well, maybe not patiently... From countless hours on the configurator, to submitting a deposit, changing my demand order from a Carrera S to a T, finally receiving an allocation, to forthcoming delivery, this process has taken nearly two years.

Still trying to wrap my head around the fact that being an actual 911 owner is going to be my new reality...
