Congrats to the both of you!! Must be exciting! It’s encouraging to know that Jiuyang cars are already arriving at local Bay Area dealers. I hope it’s a good omen for those owners who are farther away.
@zanary Did you receive the Milestone 10 email if your car is already due to arrive tomorrow? Take pics if you can.
@Father Were you also on Jiuyang? Since your build was in mid-Jan and therefore affected by the chip issue, do you know if it was swapped out already while in Emden? My build was early Jan so I hope the chip was already replaced. That “Hot” sign on the windshield is appropriate.

woohoo! July 2023 allocation to this weekend. Almost there. disclaimer: extremely highly optioned and did not follow the T ethos but it spec’ed for me the way I wanted it. 😉 https://configurator.porsche.com/porsche-code/PRSEJB12

I was on kings quest unloaded in SD but my car had to get on one more ship after that. I’m not sure where they swapped my chip but I know it was done. I assume they switched it in Emden.
Thank you for the info! Your car being on two ships is really interesting - first time I’ve heard of that. Have a good trip back home and enjoy your beautiful new 992!!

Car was shipped to Porsche Hawaii, the westest coast.
I like it!
"HOT" is so true!
I ordered almost the exact same color combination: Aventurine Green with Black and Cohiba EM interior. I did not spring for the paidao wood accents, and the non turbo S
Congratulations @zanary ! Please share photos of you new Ruby Star T delivery!!
I will be taking videos and photos tomorrow. Can't wait!!! I'll post what I can here

I have not received any updates (email or TYD on Web or Mobile apps). I just confirmation through my dealership when they looked at their online system. I suspect that the Milestone 10 email will arrive once the car carrier leaves Benicia early in the morning or maybe when it arrives at my dealership and then Milestone 11 sometime this weekend when it's ready for me to hand over the check and them to hand over the keys. I will for sure have photos of both events .
It then goes to my PPF guy for almost 14 days for the normal paint correction, decal application, exterior PPF, interior special PPF, accessories install, CQuartz Finest Reserve and finally some 3M 70 Crystalline.
I showed up about 2 minutes after they just unloaded my 911T. It is spectacular. About an hour after I left, I received both Milestones, "Your Porsche is en route to your Porsche Center" and "There’s final preparation being made for pickup at your Porsche Center". I watched as they put it in the inventory system, and hopefully PDI happens tomorrow and I get to pick up on Sat or Sun.
They had two trucks there, each with 6 P cars for drop off today.
@zanary Thank you for posting the pics - congrats again! I bet this weekend couldn't come sooner. Did you tell one of the truck drivers to head back to Benicia and pick up at least 4 - 5 PNW-bound cars please?
Can you refresh my memory again on when your build was?

@zanary That is spectacular! Congratulations! You got a very prompt delivery from the port. I am keeping my fingers crossed mine shows up soon!
I hope you get it first thing Saturday, it gives you the whole weekend to study that 911 Quick start guide
maybe I am dense, what is the reference to Tuesday May 28th?

Allocation = Friday 7/28 Change Freeze Point = Tuesday 12/12 (this date got pushed back almost 30 days because I was need the Aero Kit and this was the earliest they would allow). Manufacturing Starting Soon = Tuesday 1/9 Manufacturing Started = 1/18 Manufacturing Complete = Monday 3/11 (delayed for both EM options, and the chip issue) On way to German Port = Tuesday 3/12 Arrived at German Port = Friday 3/15 Left German Port = Saturday 3/23 At Local Entry Port = Monday 4/29 Enroute to my Porsche Center = Wednesday 5/1 Final Preparation for my Pickup = TYD is showing Tuesday 5/7, but dealer tells me it could be Saturday 5/4 or Sunday 5/5
It's going to be the longest Thursday and Friday ever... I really hope I get the call to show up with the check and then drive off with my new 911... First time owner, so this is beyond exciting. I've been waiting to own a Porsche since 1986... All because of this game (yes that is my original 1986 box + disks) and the fourth car from the top.

If what I'm hearing is correct (which I believe it to be 100% correct), it's going to be a special day for existing P owners, and upcoming P owners... It might help elevate the "T"

What was the condition of the paint? Looks like you may have been lucky in that from the start to finish of production(almost 2 months), that time may have been spent indoors rather than outdoors. Looks like you only spent a week out doors at port Emden.
