Port of entry for PCD

Just out of curiosity which port is used if your vehicle is being delivered to the Performance Center? Charleston?

Not Charleston, is Brunswick Ga and then truck to PCD.

Charleston only have car going outbound headed to Europe. Normally the vessel go NYC and then Brunswick GA to drop off cars before heading north to pick up new car at Charleston.

I have a PCD and the screenshot of what my CA sent me shows
"Port Loc.: CHSPOA". I interpret that to mean Charleston.

It could well be. Find out which Vessel it is on and sometimes they do stop at Charleston until they hit Brunswick GA.

It usually a day difference but it is not a big difference as they usually need to wait for car carrier to truck it to PCD

The status may not change until we are loaded. My guess is that the Integrity is leaving shortly probably without us at this point. It's been in port for nearly three days. The Torrens is headed into port now so another ship must be getting ready to leave.

Mine came into Charleston for delivery later this month. I was told by the PCD rep that they use a rail line from the factory to the port to export and they will put the car on the rail line back to the factory for PCD.
