    Now it looks like American Highway may be turning away from the coast to circle off the coast of Portland again.

    Now it looks like the American Highway is going for entrance to the Columbia River even though it is about two hours from low tide. They know what they are doing. They have LOTS of experience.

    Your car is probably on the Overseas Joyce, which left on Saturday.

    Do you know what your build date was? Mine was 3/6 and I'm wondering if it made the Joyce, or is waiting for the next one. I don't have a port date on my page yet.

    Thanks for the info. My PIP was built on 2/27/2012. Seems it took them a while to get mine on a ship hope yours got on the Overseas Joyce.

    2nd East Coast shipment is off the coast of NJ on the NEW NADA.

    If your car is on that ship expect your car in the next week or so.

    To show my age: "I see you shiver with antici...pation"

    Maybe not the most apropos quote, but it DOES get the point across.

    Mike,

    Your car will come into the port at Newark, NJ It takes 27-28 days from Japan to Newark - 20 days to the Panama Canal, 4 days to Jacksonville, then 3 days to Newark.
    Your car is probably on NEW CENTURY 2 ETA BALBOA: 2012-03-30 13:00 (UTC).
    Your dealer should be able to tell you what ship it is on.

    I have a build date of 02/29/12 and a in transit to port date of 03/09/12. Hopefully my car is on the Overseas Joyce also. Has anyone from San Diego picked up a car yet? I'm wondering if the San Diego cars are offloaded in Long Beach and trucked down, or does the ship make a stop at the Port of San Diego after Long Beach?

    No stop in San Diego for the ships. In Caifornia, Only Benicia (Near San Francisco) and Long Beach. San Diego is too close to Long Beach to be shipped by train, so the cars would have to be shipped by truck from Long Beach to San Diego.

    My dealer called me today and gave me some info about the CSAV RIO GREY, which left Japan on 3/3:

    Boat will arrive in Newark, NJ on 3/31/2012

    Transport will be processed (I assume this means loaded onto a transport) on 4/9/2012.

    HEIJIN has off-loaded all the cars at Long Beach and is on its way back to Japan

    Hi bvoyles and Sandiegomom. I'm in San Diego too, but no PiP yet! Ours was built on 2/23 and is most likely on the Pyxis, and we're just waiting on confirmation from Mossy in PB. If it's the Pyxis, then we're expecting to pick our car up sometimes during the last ten days of March. We'll see!
