Based on experience, it is normally depends on the following:
  • Any pending port actions (like replacing recalled parts, fix things that were broken during transport, installing port install options)
  • Regulatory holds (e.g., the recent forced labor chips)
  • backlog at port waiting for transport
  • availability of slot on car carrier truck to your dealer and the time it takes to drive from port to dealer
For a normal delivery without big disruptions, it mainly depends on the last item. For a delivery from Benicia to the Seattle area, it normally takes 1 to 3 weeks.

That aligns with my estimate.

Hey guys, took delivery yesterday. Happened in a whirlwind - car got to SD port Monday and dealer called me yesterday morning saying it’s here. Hopefully that quick turnaround bodes well for others. My first 911 and just wow. Only have driven it 100 or so miles so far but am blown away already as a converted BMW driver. The fit and finish, the driver feel but also just how practical it still feels as a daily driver, I’m discovering the 911 is an icon for a reason! Good luck to others.

Congrats! I know mine is now in Benicia as the Crystal Ray has departed and is on its was to Shanghai. Hoping for quick processing through in Benicia as well as short transit time to PNW. I know there are a few PNW members with cars in Benicia now so I'm hoping that bodes well for quick full transport truck up here.

Yep seems like quite a few of us waiting up here n the PNW 😀 My SA thinks if no delays we might have the car end of next week or early the following. Fingers crossed.

My car was sitting in Benicia for about four weeks. Yesterday I randomly drove to my dealer to discuss some things. Suddenly a truck pulls
up and my car was on it. Totally unexpected and nobody knew about it… I waited about 4 hours and they did the PDI and car detailing right away. In the end I drove home with my new baby…
