Thanks!
My C4 shipped from Halifax to Calgary in an enclosed truck. Timeframe back in July was 6 days from the time the Siem Confucius left Halifax. Your dealer can confirm whether shipping to Vancouver is by enclosed truck, but GM here says all 911s come that way.

For anyone interested, this video is very interesting in documenting the world journey of the world's largest car carrier. No Porsche's are featured or any VW group make for that matter as the German port of call was Bremerhaven and not Emden. There were mostly BMW's, Mini's, Nissan's, and MB's. It was very interesting, especially on all the thought needed to balance the ship's weight and it's journey through the Panama Canal. Nonetheless, it gives you guys an idea how our cars are shipped from Europe.

DELAYED!

Good morning Baltimore!
We are not there yet!
Actually, it is like Groundhog Day, deja vue,
Still anchored, going nowhere, in the Chesapeake Bay.

Anyone know the issue?

Seems to be moving again in the correct direction. Back to “under way”. Hopefully we are all in the new 992’s by the weekend.

Default Siem Aristotle has arrived in Baltimore Port

At this time, although a little late, my Targa has reached its vessel’s destination. I too will say goodbye, for now. Enjoy your cars, and this documented ship’s journey.
