Seems longer than most. I ordered mine July 22 and took delivery October 26. It could depend largely on your dealer and how many allocations they received as well as your options. I heard there was a delay for those who ordered the carbon fiber inserts which I opted not to have.

I avoid tracking too closely because I don't have a full up-to-date itinerary to follow
. But I do know the Galveston Highway is due at San Diego at 10am December 15 (for about 6 hours, according to the San Diego Unified Port DIstrict's vessel schedule), and then due at Port Hueneme, Oxnard, sometime on December 16 (according to that port's vessel schedule), and then finally at Benicia, Carquinez Strait, on the 20th - no vessel schedule to be found but that's the date on my import documents (before she arrived at Emden, the original Benicia ETA was December 19th).Do you know if your RS3 will travel directly south after leaving the port, or will have to first pass through a northern California/bay area dealer?

I don't have a paid account, but I can see her course is approximately 315 degrees an she's in the mountain time zone. I'd guess she is somewhere along the southern Baja California peninsula and will cross in the Pacific time zone within 24 hours.

Mines on the GOODWOOD! The ship hasn't updated it's position in a while, but the date is still the 19th (as you said). Dealer estimated delivery between Dec 23rd and Jan 6th. Needless to say I'll be calling them on the 20th to check. Heh heh.

Last time I saw the boat on radar (at Azores)... The future route seemed to track GOODWOOD to NYC, up the East River (really?), then all the way out the Long Island Sound to RI. Hopefully the weather has calmed down and it doesn't have to go through NYC. I would like to see a beast of a ship like this going under the Brooklyn Bridge though.

Agreed. My drop off is in Houston. Still hoping it lands and gets checked in before Jan 2nd - so I can get $500 off on the Season of Audi Event.... Otherwise, I am in no great hurry for the truck ride across country.
