Default Waiting on a boat :(

I just heard my Turbo , which completed on 5/22, is still in Germany waiting for a Texas bound ship. At least it is in good company, there are 2 other Turbos and a GT3 (RS?) waiting for the same ship...It's anybody's guess how much longer it will be.

Hi Chris - After yours got on the boat how long did it take to get to the dealer?

Thanks, Carlos

Hang in there - I know it's tough. I know everyone says this, but once you get it, you really do forget about the wait.

as previously stated, my TT was completed 5/22. just got the call that it will be here in South Florida Thursday or Friday of this week. As of last week, it was not showing up in the system as being on a boat but apparently there was a glitch in the system and in fact it was on a vessel. you guys may want to double check with your dealers.
