I have pasted below the ships that left Bremerhaven and are bound for Baltimore, some of which may not be carrying Porsches. Based on your completion date, I would not be surprised if your car was already in port and being PDI'd or trucked to the dealer. The Independence II left Germany more than 2weeks after your car was finished and it got to Baltimore today. Forget my earlier advice and tell your sales person or sales mgr to get off his *** and check your car in the system. It should not take more than two minutes, tops.

I find it reprehensible that we can track a $10 FedEx shipment to any point on the globe but can't seem to find a $100K car that weighs 3000lbs.

I am with you pred8or - this is absolutely unacceptable.

I would not worry too much about ticking off the dealer. In my experience, there is not much interaction between the sales guys and the service department. Conversely - try not to tick off the service guys! Having them on your side (especially under warranty) is a good thing...

Good luck. Beautiful color, btw....
