At least, it's some progress...
 
My 997 TT has finally shown up on my dealer's list of new cars on the Porsche website. It actually has a VIN!

Of course, no news on where it is actually physically located. On a ship in the Atlantic? In a port on the Eastern seaboard? On a truck on it's way to Chicago? Of course, no call from the dealership yet...

Tantalizingly close...:D

Hey, that's good news. Hound your dealer - they should be able to tell you exactly where it is i.e. finished prod., waiting for a boat, on a boat (and what boat it's on), etc.

Okay...I just found out that my TT is loaded on the Orion Highway due into Baltimore on 9/18...getting closer!

My dealership also just received the 19" Champion RF67s...wow...they are even better looking in person...Thanks Chris for posting pics and cementing my decision!

It was finished with a vin on July 23rd

If you squint...I think you can see it just to the left of that rusty porthole...:p

As long as the Orion Highway takes good care of my TT on her cruise to the US...
