[QUOTE=newbie2quattro;23871353]My salesperson wouldn't disclose the ship name to me either.

My salesman called Audi while I was at his desk and gave me the name of the ship--Athens Highway--that my S5 Cab is on. Due into Rhode Island end of next week. So, it seems not giving out the ship name is not corporate policy.

My A3 is also on that ship it left Emden and is now about 1200 miles west of the UK, it seems that the tracking system is not satellite and therefor fails when a ship gets beyond normal radio contact. Last contact with that ship was 14 June and since is making about 400 miles /day you can figure when will reach the US coast and again be on tracking. It is possible is hit an iceberg and sank. I suspect it might get to Houston a little faster than predicted due to the lubrication in the Gulf of Mexico allowing the ship to move faster
