He did confirm your GT3 will go to my dealer and my RS is headed to you! Oh sorry you just woke up from that dream!!!!! I'm sure you can make it with your GT3 until Aug!!!!!
Yes, a 'large ship' is leaving for the east coast either today or Sat, hitting Baltimore and another east coast port. That's all I know.

just spoke w/ my dealer...he says" the system" has some lag on it and our cars may or may not be on that boat. He said to check back Monday and we will know for sure after all updates are completed....lets hope he is right.

Mine's on the boat to San Diego, Pasadena delivery, boarded on 4/23 due to doc on 5/9. Due at dealer around 5/15. I'm told that the gT3's and rs's are transported by Intercity Transport in an enclosed trailer. So my rs will sit until the transport is filled. Can't wait. been on order with deposit since 3/06. Orange and Black, I'll post the VIN number Monday. See if anyone is close to mine.
It's funny, I have four childeren, all boys and all BD's in April. The RS's bd is April 6. How cool is that.
