Thanks for the screenshot of the Glovis Courage in the Canal today! It is now clear of the Panama City harbor, but not yet under full power.

Between Kingston Jamaica and now a stop upcoming at Lazaro Cardenas, MX, the Glovis Courage may not be the Express route, but after 3+ months in Emden I can't complain.

I have a Macan S coming to Porsche Marin. I'm hoping to be back to a future version of this thread a few years from now for a C4S. This thread has been great to see some very nice custom builds.

Car was already unloaded and just parked! Picking up tomorrow, dropping off for PPF next Friday! Going to be a long week... but at least it will be in the garage.
Did I miss the photos with the transportation cover off?

It is a fact that the Macan is the gateway drug to the 911. I’ve had my Macan S for over 9 years. With 78k miles she still is running strong.

Mark your calendars for 5/28 (6:00 am PST) when Porsche will formally introduce the 992.2… @Morgul you better put down a deposit now

Maybe I should wait until Delivery to ask my SA if they will take a 992.2 deposit in lieu of a down payment?

No thank you to the 48V MHEV if the rumors are true.

Latest and greatest shipping schedules for the west coast. Some good news: after being quiet for the last couple of weeks, the PWL Week 20 schedule ( https://www.pwl.de/en/eportal/schedules--vgm ) shows Glovis adding two new ships. They have names that sound like they were cruise ships in their past lives: Crystal Ray and Glovis Caravel. Note: San Diego is currently tentative for Crystal Ray.

I’ve also attached the NYK ship schedules ( https://www.nykroro.com/customer/schedules/ ) - no new ships for either Benicia or SD. ( Might be due to Glovis picking up the pace again? )

Good luck everyone.

My car is due to depart Emden on May 20th and arrive in San Diego on June 16th, with enroute to my dealer in SoCal on June 20th. I can't seem to figure out which ship it'll be on.

Based on your dates, my guess is your best bet is RCC Compass with fall back to Cronus Leader.

Looks like Dione Leader is making an unscheduled stop in Vlissingen. Hope it isn’t a long one.

I hear good things about the Marin dealership.
Fremont had a good reputation I checked them out and felt good about my experience there.
Marin would have been my next stop.

I agree with the Fremont comment. My SA, Carsten Bremer (cbremer@porschefremont.com) (925-474-7400‬) is fantastic. Got me a "T" build last year, and I just picked it up 1.5 weeks ago. It is a highly spect "T".

My Spyder RS was at port 5/7 and scheduled to depart 5/8 and arrive 6/8 to San Diego . Now it is still sitting at the port with the scheduled date unchanged (5/8). Sounds like it missed the 5/10 sailing Dione Leader. Hopefully it gets in RCC compass, but that does mean it will be delayed 10 days.

Agreed. I had a very good impression of Fremont as well.
