Just came back from stalking the port facility again, and noticed a few things:

Lots of cars were no longer there, as suspected.

Cars had stickers on the windows that I don't recall seeing on Monday.

Many sections of cars had 1 windshield wiper popped up just on the end of the row cars.

My guess at this point is that there was a hold-up on inspections. Lots of new cars all at once, not enough inspectors. I'm guessing the stickers are inspection related.

The FR-Ses are very much at the back of the lot, with respect to the direction the cars have cleared out since Monday night. All of the ones close to the street are the standard edition, but I spotted 2 at a distance, by themselves, that at least appeared silver. They were too far away, and the lighting very bad, so it was hard to tell which headlights they had. They looked darker, but it was hard to tell if that was just the distance and proximity to lights playing tricks on the eyes.

I doubt anything to worry about is going on. I'm thinking they just took more time than expected to get through inspections and happen to be at the back of the line for getting on a truck.

At the rate the lot has cleared out over 2 days, it looks like they should be able to clear out the lot by the end of the week.
