Wow, our dates and build are super similar. Still in QC, so was wondering if I had something on that was vastly different than yours. Transmission, color and spoiler are the only differences.

Still sitting in QC

My car left the factory on 5/10 and still is in transit to the port according to the genius that I spoke to today. No vessel assignment yet. She did mention that shipments out of Mexico seem to be taking longer recently to catch a vessel.

You may catch the Morning Concert tomorrow to Baltimore. If not, the Grand Pioneer is heading back to Veracruz now and will hit EWR 6/23.

When does GP get back to Brunswick? Assume it’s a stop before EWR?

I don’t believe it’s stopping there but hopefully I’m wrong. The next ship to Brunswick is the Nocc Atlantic on July 3rd.

Yeah, I completely sympathize, I got stuck in QC for a few weeks which caused me to miss the Grand Pioneer by a day or two. My original production date (day I entered QC) was April 10th, which turned into April 26th.

You’re definitely at the port by now. The logistics from this factory don’t update btw RFT and In Transit. I hope for future builds (talking to you Sethhboii) they get it fixed, it’s frustrating. I have come to rather enjoy the detective part of it, but it was surely time better spent.

It is (arrives June 2), then onto MD (June 4).

I can’t send pictures via DM. So here is where it is, as of 6 mins ago.

Yes, it’s stopping in Brunswick (June 2) before Baltimore.

Haha yes, it does not reflect the port installs. Also already have the drls and some more cf bits ready to go. Those reflectors up front will need to go immediately as well.

Just to keep the excitement in check for a couple of us who are about to hit Ready for Transport here in this thread. Based on reading various other threads, it seems it’s completely normal for cars to sit in that status for a month before they’re boarded to a vessel.

I’m trying to contain my expectations here a little and so based on when I go to RFT, which is likely end of week, i’ll most likely be catching the july ship for a mid july delivery. Somewhat of a bummer, was hoping to get in early June but that seems to be the likeliest scenario in my case or anyone going into RFT within this and next week.

Fun times!

Yep, a month or more, easily. This is often the longest step of the whole buying process.

Hypori · 05-24-2023, 05:07 PM

Still in Final Assembly after 5 days. Hope it moves to Ready For Transport soon so I can catch the early June ship at Lazaro Cardenas.

Hypori · 05-24-2023, 10:27 PM

Just updated to Final Assembly! How long does it take to go from factory to the Port of Lazaro Cardenas? The Aries Leader will get to the port on 6/4. Really hope it will make it onto that ship.

Congrats and I think that does leave you with enough time to get on that vessel. How do you guys figure out the various carrier names?

Congrats, it looks amazing in AW! Your stars seem to have lined up pretty efficiently from a timeline perspective.
