How long does the journey from Japan take? I've only seen the ships when they've been tracking at < 20 knots and are pretty close to port. Do they ever get faster than that?

My db just went from "week of Sept. 5" to "week of Sept. 12". I was told that it's "on a truck (left Long Beach)" with an arrival date of Sept. 9, but I'm still having a hard time believing it takes > 3 weeks to get to Texas. However, this latest change seems to line up with the "arrival date" I was given by CS; obviously the dealer would need another day (or two) to get it ready for delivery.

The max speed on the World Spirit and Luna Spirit are 18.8 knots. Thats only 21.6 mph. Could you imagine traveling that distance at that speed that must be a long and boring trip.

Mine also changed from 'Week of Aug 29th' to 'Week of Sept 1st'.
The Luna Spirit and the World Spirit are both docked at the Nissan terminal in LA.

Dag nab it, I changed from week of September 12 to week of September 15. Sort of odd in the the 12th is a Monday and the 15th is a Thursday - strange day to name a week.marccbr said:Damn the date on my dashboard just changed from "week of Aug 29" to "week of Sep 1"
Did most everyone get bumped 3 days?

Mine just changed to 1/1/1980. Is that bad?
Ok, just kidding. Mine still says "week of September 16, 2011". :| I'd love to see some kind of change that would confirm that my LEAF made it to the US.

Honestly, no sour grapes here but does anybody know why he would he would get his before me? He ordered (same color & trim -red SL+QC, don't know his other options, we chose none) 4 days after me, but his VIN is over 50 less than mine.

We all wonder but there are to many unknown variables, or at least variables we have no control over. I ordered 5/11 and am scheduled for week of Sept 1 with a vin of 79xx.

Well, It probably has to do with location. Many of the May orders are no doubt on the same ship and I guess they all dock in CA. If that is the case, then they have to get unloaded, sorted in a yard or some such, and then parceled out to where they are going. Your's, and probably mine, get loaded on a choo choo, arrive at another yard (Kent?), and then once again parceled out to the dealers. Perhaps that is why my date is about a week before yours, as I'm a wee bit closer.OttersRedLeaf said:

I'm buying mine from Fontana Nissan - 2hrs driving time from Long Beach Port max. Don't even have an exact date set yet, customer svc rep hinted dealer will have it ready for me some time early September. While location is likely a factor the whole thing appears to be more complicated than a simple function of distance from A to B.

I'm still seeing "month of September" which begs the question,
Is there any rhyme, method or observed patterms to when "month of.." turns to "week of.." and how that correlates to things like
-when the car is built
-when the car is loaded on a ship
-when the car is unloaded in Long Beach
Etc.
Just trying to get a sense of things.
