Hopefully that’s not the case. I was told when I ordered that once it’s at the port it would take 2 days for them to get it from port, inspect it, and get it ready for pick up.

Guys, our ship has finally arrived at Benicia. Any ideas how long it would take before it arrives at the dealership? My TYD estimate is 2 weeks, but I guess it wouldn't have to take so long, although my SA once told me about some extreme cases where their cars sat at the port of Benicia for more than a month.

Am wondering as well. I don’t know how the docks work. Do they unload cars on weekends and Monday is a holiday. TYD says 6/17 as date at dealership, but it’s been about 1 week ahead of each milestone, so hoping it stays that way. A good sign would be if the ship leaves Benicia, signifying our cars are at least off the ship.

anyone heard anything from their dealership regarding the status of their cars? mine told me it can go as fast as 3 days thru port, or as slow as 2 weeks.

My dealership called me today and said that they expect to get the car this week (although no guarantee). Later in the day, my TYD updated, and the estimated arrival date moved ahead from 6/17 to 6/3, which is just in 3 days.

Honestly I don’t trust that data. First, do you really think port processing finishes the day it arrived in a weekend? My TYD also updated to say that. I think it’s just a matter of TYD/Porsche system giving a wrong info, and the dealer is using the same bad data. Sure it’s possible that it only takes a few days, but more likely it will take some time to process. Lastly my dealer said there is an open campaign that they need to do software update after receiving the car at the dealership.
