Ha… my car left Emden on the Glovis Courage on 4/23 and recently stopped off in Brunswick GA. Now he’s headed to Jamaica for a short vacation, then off to San Diego around 5/21.

PM me if you’re on the Glovis Courage and picking up at San Diego Porsche off Miramar. It would be nice to meet some faces behind these texts.

My car made it to port today, heading to Port of San Diego. I'm hoping it gets on Dione Leader that leaves on May 14th. It's currently scheduled to get on a boat on May 21/22 at the moment.

I received 3 updates in the last 24 hours- 1) manufacturing process completed 2) on its way to German port 3) arrived at German port. My car is scheduled to leave on May 22nd and scheduled for Benicia June 23rd. Anyone else have similar dates? Maybe I'll be on the RCC Compass.

J.Blossom to PNW update...
my SA just text me to inform me that my Spyder RS has completed Benicia Port PDI and is waiting to be truck loaded hopefully by tomorrow? So it should be here by the end of the week.

Any of you who had cars recently unloaded from the Poseidon Leader had their TYD status updated? Or received confirmation from their SA?

Nope, not yet. All I have heard is that the carrier is in port.

Thanks for the pic! The truck driver must have driven straight up without sleeping. How exciting - hopefully you should be able to pick it up by Friday morning? I still have not received any notification - either from my sales rep or TYD e-mails . I truly hope I'm on the same truck / convoy that is heading out tomorrow as @n4v4nod .

My car got affected by the chip issue earlier this year and sat in Emden for two+ months so if you're in a similar situation, I'm eager to hear if you found issues with the exterior paint or whether the dealer still needs to replace the component (or Porsche replaced it back at Emden).

I just received the notification that the car is at the port. The TYD app didn't update, but the web app did.

You and I have same timelines, except mine is going to San Diego.

On a side note, my app has updated to show its at the port as of 8 hours ago, but the web app is still showing manufacturing completed.

@Earle Did your car arrive at the Monterey dealer this week? I recall you said there was a chance it would depart Benicia this past Monday. Best of luck! 👍

I got to unwrap the car last night and paint-work looked ok (seems like the chip was replaced at port or the factory at some point). It's off to detailing today, but I will share any feedback I hear from him.
