Yeah I was a bit confused myself reading the thread title, but to the OP I'm glad it's on it's way! Mine is on the Freedom and is supposed to make it to the US tomorrow!

You're lucky it's going to be delivered at Port Hueneme. There is a labor dispute at port of Long beach and Los angeles. A lot of delay in shipping.

What dealer did you purchase your car from and when did you expect to pick it up? If I may ask.

Seeing the photo of the carrier reminds me of the Cougar Ace incident.

That is odd. My dealer just called me and assured me the delivery date is unchanged.

So, are you still on for the 27th? My vehicle is still sitting at the port with no scheduled dealer delivery date. My dealer is 20 miles from the port!

I plan on picking mine up on Tuesday. It has been a long wait, 6 months from order to delivery.
