My GT3 Touring, delivery at PECLA is not for another 4-weeks. I suspect a big part of that is scheduled experience delivery. I would be safe to plan 2 full weeks for ( PDI, Customs, Import and Trip to Dealer ) that’s super conservative.

Thanks fellas. I was fortunate to run into the GM who facilitates the discharging of our vehicles when I was there. He was kind enough to give me his card after we talked about my incoming car. Asked if I had the VIN & he could keep tabs for me.

He said he’ll check with the Porsche team on an ETA once the vessel completes discharging tomorrow. Nothing will happen before then.

My TYD updated to Step 9 (“arrived at the local entry port”) about an hour ago, backdated to 7/21. Anyone else? Wonder how long until they’ll release them for transport…

Mine was also backdated to 7/21 but en route to dealer updated to 4/23 and arrival to 4/24 (was July 30/31 earlier this morning). Plus Porsche NA Customer Service just called me thinking I was picking up my car today but that’s not accurate either. It’s missing the Burmester amp.

Disappointing comms overall.

My TYD went crazy today. It updated to arrived at port ( Step 9 ), but now shows enroute to dealer on 08/18, it was showing around 08/02 ?. It going to bay area dealer so I'm hoping that it will get there soon.
