I was sent an e-mail April 10th with a VIN # and told my car was being loaded onto a boat. Canada isn't expected to get BRZ's released until June, and probably the latter half of June at that. So, with that I'd expect that a bunch of American Subaru's are either already in the States or at least on their way.
Maybe the Altair Leader is actually bringing a second shipment over. Or maybe it's the first for the States and mine was shipped with a bunch of other Subaru's. I'm not really sure why some of Canada's BRZ's were made so early since our release date is pushed back. It will be interesting to continue following the tracking of the ship and see where it goes.
If anybody could find out if a ship left a Subaru Port around the 11th or 12th of April it would be arriving any day now and we can see if it ends up in Vancouver, BC, and goes South. Or maybe it headed to somewhere in the States and headed North.
I unfortunately don't know Subaru's shipping habits. If they unload all the cars at one destination or if they split their load over several ports. I think our best bet is to follow older shipping paths and see if they made multiple stops along the coast or just headed back after it got it's next shipment.
For what it's worth, I received the e-mail on the 10th of April at 11 AM which would be the 11th of April in Japan so... If we can find a boat at a Subaru dock within a day either way of that then we'd have something else to track!
