Still seems to be a few hours away, no form of travel is safe from the DMV traffic.

The current status is anchored, not moored….perhaps waiting for a space. Just SE of Annapolis….lots of ships in the surrounding waters also anchored…we shall see.

My SA said it averages about a little over a week to get from port to their dealership. Said it takes a few days to run tests and do the processing and then another 1-2 days to get delivered. My SA is always conservative though, they originally told me May / June even when TYD was showing early April, they just really don’t want to over promise, so hoping he’s sandbagging a bit on port to dealer times.

Is this your first GT3? Is it going to be the daily or more of a track toy?

Hey Jimmy - looks like we may be riding on the same truck…quite the exciting journey! May I ask who you’re having do your PPF or other detail work?

TYD has a fourteen day lag from arrival in port (4/1) to arrival at dealer (4/15) for us, a four to five hour trip down I-95….seems like a long time, we shall see.

TYD shows 2 weeks for me to go 2 hours down 95. I think it can be as quick as a day or two and the two weeks is the safer estimate. Guys on here have posted being at the dealer 2-3 days after port, but I’d guess 7-10 days is the average.

This will be my 4th GT car. Started with a 991.1 GT3 and moved to a 991.1 GT3RS. A yr ago added a 997.1 GT2. Now adding the 992 GT3 to the lineup. They are all street cars and I enjoy them on some really amazing roads in Southern OH and N KY.

You should use Chicago Auto Pros in Glenview. They have done like 6 cars for me dating back to 2010. I know both the Owners. Solid work and attention to detail. I am not going with PPF on this one. Having Paint correction, 2 coats of Gtech- (Serum light and then EXO), Windows tinted 35 around and 50 Windshield.

Default SFL Conductor Update

SFL Conductor update-Sunday 8am-

Well, this is for a select few of us left on board heading to Florida. The ship is en route south/southwest to Jacksonville and expected in port three days early, Tuesday, March 29th at 6:45am. My TYD is still at 4/1 in port and 4/15 at dealer, I expect those dates to roll closer than that. Congrats to all, it’s been a long, strange trip.

Awesome. My car got off in Baltimore and now my TYD is at 14.

Assuming should have the car by Friday because no way car off loaded yesterday and already in transit. If so- that would be stupid fast or everything we seeing when tracking these Cargo ships is actually delayed by a few days.

Or- is it possible my car got off in Rhode Island. My GT3 in 2018 was RI but thought it was Baltimore for my GTS
