Default Anybody know what US port the boat comes in at?

Car was to arrive "in port" on 8/11. Is there any way of tracking progress? I've heard 10-14 days in port before release to carrier, does that sound right? OK, we all can agree it doesn't sound right - what I mean is, does that sound correct?

I believe it makes 1-2 stops on the East Coast and then makes it's way to Houston.

Default My S4 sat at the port for almost a month...

it can take a short ammount of time or a long ammount of time. There are sometimes things that need fixing before the car goes to the dealer like a tire or wheel etc... There are I believe 5 ports that Audi goes through in the US.

Default Depends on where you're at...

NY metro Area goes through Newark, SE and MW go through Houston, New England goes through Rhode Island (I think), and Cali/PNW go through Long Beach.

Each port has a ship. No stopping and then continuing. It can take as few as 3 days and as long as 2 weeks.
