Thanks Tango, I am glad to hear all three cars being followed on the forum made it onto Tijuca.
I wish mine made it on board... Poor thing is sitting dock side watching his aussie mates set sail... :lol:

Hope to be on the next ship out :headbang:

I know the feeling mine was on the dock for 3 weeks and watched it's mates sail away on the Fidelio. About a week and a half pout from Port Kembla now so getting close.

I know the feeling too, but hope springs eternal!

Mine is only being kept company by one forum member's car (hi Steamplane!), the other car is a friend of a member, so hopefully yours will finally have more forum companionship for the journey at least :)

Yay Vinno, mine is with yours to Port Kembla. It's getting exciting now knowing that it is 1 day from Auckland and only 8 days from Port Kembla. I think we are going to have an anxious wait from Xmas to New Year though unless we are extremely lucky. Mine has to be trucked to Newcastle. Has your dealer contacted you at all yet? Mine hasn't.

Looks like the departure of the Tamerlane has been pushed back 2 days. Now only departing on the 19th Dec 2016.

These last two months of the wait is going to very long......

A silver lining to the delay dark cloud - another 11 GT's made it on.
I also added a couple more boats.
My ETA to Baltimore came in a week! So now ETA is 03 Feb which means build likely 2nd week of Jan.

Same - 51 days. That's puts your build week estimated at January 9. I am basing this on my old ETA of 1 week later having a build week of Jan 16

I think we are going to have an anxious wait from Xmas to New Year though unless we are extremely lucky. Mine has to be trucked to Newcastle. Has your dealer contacted you at all yet? Mine hasn't.
I think my dealer is probably the most communicative of all. I have constant feedback from him although tracking is probably where most of us can beat the dealer, they won't sit there each day hoping the tracker updates even though we know the schedule.

I met up with mine a couple of weeks ago to finalise options and he looked up the release date from Port Kembla while I was there. Although they say 24th of December there is no way they will have a dealer open for delivery until possibly the week after Christmas and if you are getting options installed by the dealer then it will be when the suppliers get back after new year I would think.

Very much looking forward to it but I have been patient up until now although I don't have a true fun car to drive at present as I sold my avatar car RS Focus a few weeks ago. Missing a manual to drive at present although I can't really complain about my daily driver which is a Skoda Octavia RS Wagon. Nothing will beat the Mustang when it arrives though its been my holy grail car all my life.
