Official waiting room for those with a new 992 on order --- come on in !!
No worries - no salt taken . Very happy folks are getting their cars. Just concerned that cars have been sitting idle in Emden for two straight months now and they had opportunities to load the older ones not once but twice during this past week but didn’t.
Congrats on a record transport time!

Whooooowho! Siem Aristotle is anchored waiting to berth in Halifax NS Canada. The end of the month can't come soon enough...

My 992 just reached Emden and is waiting on the next ride to Baltimore. Anyone have an updated Emden shipping schedule? Any chance Siem Cicero will be making a stop at Baltimore?

Thank you for sharing your experience @pgap718 When you finally received the car, did you notice any issues with it? E.g., paint, exterior protection sticker residue, post-delivery operational problems, etc.?

Here we go! Mine has been in Emden since Jan 12. Prior delivery estimate was April 5th, but as soon as the Amethyst Ace left the dock without my car on it, the delivery estimate revised to April 19th, which I think that suggests I'll be on the Violet Ace arriving into Baltimore April 16th. Teaching me a lesson in patience...

EDIT: Thanks for posting this schedule; I’ve been looking for the updated schedule for a few days now. I think I should be waiting for my car to load onto EMDEN at the end of this month.

Is anyone else seeing “Not Available” for step 8 and beyond in the web based Track Your Dream?
I’ve been at port since 2/29 and headed to Davisville. Hoping I get on the Siem Cicero when she departs Emden today or tomorrow. I believe emails blast when the ship leaves port.
PVMS from my SA predicts departure today and Davisville on 3/29, but this not available status worries me….

He's a broker, so I would guess he's splitting the $85K between the dealer and himself. I wonder if you can go directly to the dealer and negotiate a deal yourself without the broker...

What update did your SA provide? Mine says the PVMS shows departing today on 3/15 and arriving in Davisville on 3/29. Amazing that TYD is always broken.

Looks like we're in for a couple week wait for the Violet Ace.

But why is my car, which was completed before your’s on 1/15, still sitting at the port with a revised projected load date of 3/30 to Davisville?
The only explanation I can think of is: The older cars are at the back of the lot, so they need to load and ship out the newer ones in order to get to the ones in the back.

I spoke to the sales mgr at my dealer. He said the estimated ship date is listed as 3/29 with delivery into Baltimore around 4/9-4/10. Then said it will take around 2 weeks to get to the dealership. Then need to ship it to myself in TX since they can't (or won't) do a courtesy delivery. Doesn't match up with any ships so the dates will slide if Violet Ace is correct on the latest schedule. He also said his system is showing that the chip repair has been completed - hope that's correct. This whole thing has left a very bad taste in my mouth with Porsche as a brand. First, the general arrogance of dealerships in securing a vehicle (esp in TX) and now the "is what it is" attitude about a multiple month delay. I know - no one cares and I can only really voice my vote with my dollars.
