It looks like I'll have to fly over there and drive it onto the vessel myself.

According to the Port of San Diego Marine Information System, the Lyra Leader docked today (Wednesday, 8/15) at 1:45 AM. Now the countdown really begins.

Not a word. I'm trying to be nice about it, and give them a couple of days to find out what's going on, and call me (one would think they would know already!) I figure Saturday I'll be on the phone, or maybe even go over there and talk to somebody (gently).

I haven't heard any updates either. I figured the car arrived at port wednesday, so it should be on the transport by friday and be here by Monday. Well today is Monday, so we'll see.

I spoke with the dealer Friday (he called me!). He said the car was unloaded, and after some port paperwork, should be trucked here this week. He said after prep, etc, I should be taking delivery this Friday or Saturday.
I ordered it on April 10th. So I guess it was rather timely for a '08.
By the way, I wonder if I've committed a "Turbo forum faux pas," as mine is "only" a C2S. Just kidding, and also by the way, I'm unbelievably happy.

I ordered my car on April 10th, and according to the Dealer, it completed production on Friday, July 13th. (Hope they're not too superstitious in Germany) It was loaded on the "Lyra Leader" on July 24th, and arrived in San Diego on Wednesday, August 15th. Anxiously awaiting its arrival this week in Las Vegas.
