Wait times as of February 2026

5 months later - I have a VIN! Now waiting on shipment from Japan to Houston - maybe in April?

Shipping and delivery after build took 7 weeks. We are in Virginia so it might not be as long to TX. Congratulations btw!

If you have a VIN then much of the unknowns and "maybes" should be narrowed down. Tell your sales person you want to know the name of the ship when it becomes known, (see 6th post here).

Then use one of these ship tracking websites, shipinfo.net, marinetraffic.com or myshiptracking.com to follow the ship from Japan across the Pacific Ocean.

If your dealer is on the east coast you get to follow the ship through the Panama Canal. Here's a thread mentioning what happens at the east coast ports, unloading, PIOs, shipment to dealers and all that.

You can deep-dive on the tracking, I found it sort of entertaining to check the ship's travels every few days.
