I was just notified that my new Touring Edition prius has been built and shipped. Ordered in June. Does anyone know how long shipping takes?
<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE(sonny @ Sep 8 2006, 03:24 PM) [snapback]316641[/snapback]</div> I certainly don't but the ocean voyage shouldn't take more than a week. My car was manufactured in August and arrived at the dealer the first week of September. The dealer is about a 5 hour drive from the PoE. Please post some photos when you get it, I would like to see what they did to the spoiler and what the wheels look like.

I -think- your car will come in from the Panama Canal. Then up to Boston, where it will be unloaded, any options added, and then shipped by truck to your dealer. One-two weeks on the water, a week at the port (paperwork etc), and a day or two to the dealer. It -can- take longer, depending on how busy they are at the port. This all based on experience with the Mazda RX-8. It may also be unloaded in Florida and trucked from there. The car manufacturers don't control the ports, but they can decide which ones to use. Patience is a virtue.
