Sincerity Ace has departed Halifax during the night so our cars must be unloaded and getting lined up for the train/truck or ?

My dealer advises me that about 2 - 2 1/2 weeks to get to Vancouver. Between my office floor and their parts department there are 5 or 6 things to install by them (including the metal pedals with rubber inserts).

Congrats guys! its finally on Canadian soil.

It's funny, but my dealer says my car still shows on vessel but the ship left Davisvile a couple of days ago on its way to Houston. I hope they didn't forget to take her off the boat!! Hopefully it is off the boat and it gets cleared to leave port ASAP! I think it's about a 10 hour drive to the dealer so I'm really hoping its here by the weekend.

 

I think the computer system falls behind when the car is sitting on the dock until such time as it gets onto a Truck or Train or however it's getting to the dealer. Same issue with my car. He also says it takes about 4 days from arrival at port for the paperwork to get sent to him.

Sorry I missed you post.

I've got everything set up so all I need now... is the car!
My wife became suspicious about the growing pile of stuff so i had to come clean... to a degree!
She's wondering why I would remove brand new pieces from a brand new car and replace them... "you're not starting that customizing madness on a brand new car!?"

The word "brand new" were mentioned many times as where the words "10 carats"...
If she knew what I'm planning to do before I actually take the new 911 on the road for the first time... I'd be in trouble... actually I should say "more trouble"... at least a 40 centimeter Hermes Birkin kind of trouble...

Damn that woman reads me like a book!

 

Wow! That's some SERIOUS trouble. 40 cm? hahaha. You don't know how bad my wife wants one. Looking forward to your delivery!

 

Hahahaha...yeah you don't know the half of it so let me give you a heads up my friend...ya see the trouble is they'll be happy with Louis Vuitton, Chanel, Celine etc... untill you get them a Hermes Kelly... after that it's all over.
Now a days I'm lucky i get away with a 40cm Birkin... because she's got her sights set on a crocodile Birkin!

Don't get me wrong I'm the luckiest guy in the world, but damn... keep her away from friends who's "husband just bought her a Crocodile Birkin, she's soooo lucky!"....
Mind you I'm saying that to a guy who just gave his Dad a 991!

We're all very lucky!

 

Wow! You could buy a 911 for the price of a croc Birkin!!! And probably all your mods too. hahaha. Yeah, I think I'll keep my wife away from yours.

Hey, if you or your wife has any connections on getting a birkin, let me know. It's nearly impossible to get one now. You either have to spend several thousand on ugly, crappy Hermes stuff to even get noticed by a sales person or pay a hefty premium to a reseller. They don't even take wait lists anymore for them, at least here on the West Coast.

 

I'm afraid the only way to get to the top of that list... is to buy your way there...and nothing short of 4/5 Birkins at that what a racket!

They'll even tell your wife who else wanted it but didn't get it or worse vise versa!
But hey i just waited a year for this 991 C4S cab... so what am I gonna say about any of it.

Sorry for the hijack OP!

 

Still waiting for delivery, now approaching 2 weeks since it docked!

 

Mine docked Sat or Sunday and I have not heard from the dealer when they will have it. I am really hoping for this weekend but still waiting.

Hopefully you get some news soon. It's really too bad they can't get us better location info. My dealer says that when it flips from in port to in inventory that it's usually at the dealership in 48 hours or less. But who knows, he also says sometimes it just shows up at the dealership and they are surprised.

At least we know they made it to US soil and should be in our possession soon.

 

So I decided to take a drive to the dealership and went to the back lot to see what their inventory looked like. And guess what, I see a a guy parking mine in the lot, it just arrived! Now I am waiting to hear when I can take delivery.

 

Outstanding! Now that's what I call a great surprise!!! I'd be doing all I could to take delivery either tonight or first thing in the am. Be sure and take loots of pics of it being unwrapped and prepped.
I wish I could just drop by my dealer but I'm a good 90 min away, lucky you are so close!

 

Yeah, the dealership is 5 mins away. Planning to pickup tomorrow afternoon.

 

Anyone know how to find the Gentle Leader Ship? It still shows it stuck at Panama for the past 4 days...??

I see it on along the coast of Mexico, approaching Puerto Vallarta.
