[QUOTE=dash267;19443630]Some interesting stuff. The vessel sailing schedule indicates it’s going from Emden to Santa Marta -> Manta -> SD -> Benicia but looking at the current vessel next destination for RCC Compass, it is Brunswick.[/QUOTE
Earlier this year, my boat (Neptune Barcelona) was rerouted to Brunswick mid-Atlantic, and then when it got closer to the east coast it rerouted again to Baltimore (which isn't even a line item on those schedules). It did go direct to Santa Marta after Baltimore.

@Marin Vizsla any word on your delivery? Surely you were able to get your car by now. Let's see it

Sorry - between getting the car delivery and work it’s been a hectic week. Thanks you both for checking in.
I was able to pick up my C4S last Sunday ( pics below before it got prepped ). My wife and I took a day off that Monday to drive it up north and then drove around this past Saturday. During Saturday’s rain, it stayed well planted on the road. ~300 miles so far. We plan to drive to the coast this 3-day weekend. LOVE it so far. Embarrassingly, sometimes I sit in the garage just to admire the design. I kept my 2019 Cayenne as my daily grocery and Vizsla hauler so it is amazing how the two cars differ ( Yes, it’s stating the obvious but still….); I love driving both cars. Can’t wait for this weekend to take the 992 out for an extended road trip. I’ll try to take pics of it out in nature.

@Marin Vizsla I am happy you finally took delivery, I think you were one of the last Jiuyang Blossom alumni to do so. Excited to see pictures of your car in the beautiful Pacific Northwest. I'm not sure of the road conditions are on highway 20 to Methow Vally, I always thought that was a beautiful route.
I am glad you have graduated and are enjoying your 911!

Thank you, Earle and all others. I hope all the Jiuyang alumni and other recent west coast owners / recipients have been enjoying their new rides as well. Getting a new car couldn't come at a better time than now with spring / summer and upcoming summer holidays,

Glad to hear you've got your ride and that you've been enjoying it @Marin Vizsla. I love your spec, although I'm biased since mine is very similar in GT Silver The Porsche livery really improves the overall look of the car by balancing the black accents in the wheels and windows.

For those folks with a car on Wild Rose Leader, it's been idling off-short near the Panama Canal for the past several days. I assume there's some congestion getting through the locks. Hopefully it won't be much more of a delay.

For reference, Glovis Courage took 3 days to get through.

Thanks! I was leaning heavily towards Arctic Grey for exterior but then, at last minute, I went with my instincts and chose GT Silver. With the clear taillights, monochromatic center caps, clear side markers, and black glass sunroof, it’s a nice color combo. With the constant drizzle here in Seattle, the other benefit of a silver exterior is that it hides dirt better. I used to have a silver 7-series long time ago and didn’t have to constantly wash it.
