Looks like the Siem Cicero arrived at Emden yesterday. Here's hoping every Taycan that's been waiting for a ride to the US east/gulf coast makes it aboard!

TYD updated today that the car is supposed to leave Emden on 8/31/23 even though PCNA sent me an email saying the car should be at the dealer by 8/4/23. WTH

I think the email is correct.

See how Siem Confucius is listed in upcoming arrivals, at Jacksonville, by Volkswagen, with ETA of 8/2/23 11.30. That's the only one that seems to line up, for you and me (my city will be Raleigh NC), assuming it goes to Baltimore also after this.. or a bit before this.. checking on baltimore port website shortly.. (update couldn't find this yet)

I also got an email from customer support after I emailed them, and amazingly TYD updated same day, saying left port on 7/24/23 and will arrive to port on 8/13/23 (Jacksonville). However, only vehicle shown in upcoming arrivals in that time frame is Siem Confucius which is actually coming in much earlier.

Siem Confucius is now in the port of Veracruz. It left Baltimore/ Sparrows Point on July 18 and was in Jacksonville on July 20-21. Also the VW list posted earlier is not a complete list. Neptune Koper arrives Baltimore tomorrow (Monday) and was not on that list. Your SA should be able to tell you definitively which ship you are on but only after it has left Emden and the manifest is released. These ships sometimes go back to the same US ports on the return journey presumably to offload new cargo (eg from Mexico) or to pick up cargo that is leaving the US.

@neo402 - I’ve given up all hopes that I will take delivery in the month of August. I sent another email to customer support asking which information was correct, the email that I received stating a 8/4/23 delivery or they newly updated TYD with a 8/31/23 departure from Emden. The same customer care rep responded saying how there are numerous checks on the vehicles before leaving the factory, before being loaded on the vessel at the docks, before leaving the receiving dock, at the dealership and how they ensure no documents are left out of the vehicles, ie. Manuals, checking VINs, before they are shipped and how the vehicles are loaded on the vessels FIFO… blah blah blah… so I responded asking why would I be told that the vehicle would be delivered on 8/4/23 and the very next day TYD shows that I’m still 6 weeks out. I asked how is it that the vehicle completed production on 4/26 and has been at Emden since 5/4 along with others and not to expect delivery until mid-to end of Sept… after some and along with others waiting for a MY23 when around or about the same time people will be receiving MY24 and in all actuality someone on this forum has stated as receiving or soon to be receiving a MY24. Well, needless to say I got ghosted.

I guess I’ll join the Sept thread when someone starts one.

Yeah, this is ridiculous. I was really hoping you get it in August.

Nothing we can do. There is no accountability.

Absolutely no accountability…. And they have me between a rock and a hard place…. I could get my small deposit back and they wouldn’t care because there is some one that would take my build very quickly not to have to wait 12 - 24 months; I would be giving up a practically one of a kind or very limited vehicles (due to the fact there are probably very few people if any who has spec’d their Taycan exactly as I have. Which is the same for everyone that has order thier Taycan); I would be given up owning the best EV on the market today (so I’ve heard). Then I would have to begin doing research to decide on another EV and then go through the building and wait process all over.

I guess the pros out-ways the cons for me and I’ll just wait…

I’m done with ranting today…..

All the best to you and your very near Taycan acceptance.

TYD finally updated that my car has left the port. It's been sitting since 5/11! Here's hoping for a delivery this week!

 

[IonFlow]

For anyone waiting for an arrival at Houston, that’s the next port for Neptune Koper.

 

[trogger]

Well, my car has arrived in Houston (on Lake Wanaka, after a trip to Canada and Mexico) and will hopefully appear at the dealer this week.

 

[neo402]

They seem to have updated the TYD website, for a moderner look and feel. Just today.

Unfortunately the accuracy of the shipping info will probably be as bad as ever…. !

I'm one of the fortunate ones it seems where my GTS is on a ship, 3 weeks after build ended. But yeah TYD is off/not trust worthy.
Currently on the ship 'Patara' departed on the 27th in route to Halifax (eta Aug 6) Cross fingers August delivery to dealer is on track.
Question please - Vessel finder has stopped updating the ships location after it passed England. Is there another site i can go to see where the ship is?

You want shipinfo.net, which is the only site I found that can show satellite updates for free.

Replying to @calchoi in July deliveries: "My car just arrived at Benicia CA yesterday, anyone else on the same boat? Any ideas when it will be ready to be delivered to the dealership?"

Mine also arrived in Benicia on the same day, July 21. Cars are on stop delivery for a "software update". Although TYD says it will be delivered to my dealer (Porsche Marin) Aug 10, I had planned to do an LA pick up at PECLA. I contacted PECLA to make an appointment and they said they couldn't book it until the stop delivery was lifted, but could hold a tentative date for me. Earliest date was Sept. 27! I have been waiting 19 month for this car, so I canceled my PECLA delivery and will have it delivered to my dealer when the hold is lifted, whenever that is.

If you are planning a PECLA delivery, I would keep this in mind.
