My VIN has just been registered to My Porsche account. Checked with my SA, that only indicates the car is near, not quit present in the dealership. ARGH! Not looking good for a weekend delivery for me.
@Terra ??
Congrats @ebois on the car. I'm surprised that the truck cars from Halifax to Winnipeg rather than by rail, but whatever, as long as it arrives! Good luck with the waiting! What spec have you ordered?
@Terra did you get any updates? I'm hoping to be surprised by some photos of my car in the...
Funny, I also heard from my SA today! @moballa sorry to tell you, but my Taycan left Halifax by rail last week, probably with @Terra's car. ETA to the dealership Aug 28.
Thanks for the followup @Terra. You're much more proactive in chasing your SA than I am. That took a while to get the train going.... so the wait continues hopefully for only another 2 weeks and we can take delivery before the end of August. Aug 29th is still my target date!
@Jayc - hope you...
Beautiful wheels @Jayc. A timeless classic design.
We've all been waiting a long time... Coming up to 3 years for me since my deposit was placed. People think we're nuts!
Hi @Jayc , welcome and congratulations on the Turbo. Sorry to hear of the issues. There was another member that was stuck in Halifax for 2-3 weeks. Hopefully yours gets released soon. I wonder if there's a holdup to have the big software update completed?
Losing an HRE wheel is like losing an...
No, I don't think the train movement is tracked by the dealers, but I may be wrong. I expect that I won't hear much from them until I receive a photo of the car at the dealer, covered with white plastic and blue foam on the bumpers. Maybe in 2 weeks' time.
Looks awesome. 17lb / wheel is amazing!
I take the same approach for all my cars. Stock wheels get converted to winter rubber, and new wheels with summer rubber!
For those of you on the GOODWOOD, it's already arrived and left Halifax, on its way to Davisville. A very quick 12 hour stop in Canada! My car is finally home one soil... Only 4500km left to travel by train to get across the country to the West Coast.
Now I'm getting excited!
Confirmed today as well, I'm definitely on the Goodwood arriving in Halifax on the 31st. There was a Frozen Blue Turbo at Porsche Centre Vancouver today, with blue rimmed Mission E wheels. Pretty awesome! Sorry I didn't get a photo!
Sorry to hear of the issues @flickroll. Didn't you car have some port quality issues? Perhaps this is related and it wasn't corrected at port and was left for the dealer? Hope it all gets resolved soon.
You can only be certain if you contact your dealer (which I have not). However, it's a pretty good bet that if you've been at the port since the 8th, you'll be on the Goodwood. The tracking screen expected dates have standard estimates at port (3 weeks), shipping (2 weeks), and transport before...
Awesome! Sounds like we'll be shipmates and perhaps truck-mates on the cross country journey from Halifax to the dealer.
@LonePalmBJ - I would assume cars going to Georgia offload in Jacksonville FL, not in Houston? If so, you don't want to be on the Goodwood; it doesn't stop in Jacksonville...
I completed production on July 9th and entered Emden July 10th. Guess I got luck with that transfer.
Hope you get on Terra. What's your car spec? Are you getting it from Langley or Vancouver?
