Default Import Delays?

Anyone hearing about current delays getting cars cleared through customs? My son has a GT3 that's been stuck for a couple of weeks and I wondered if the "shutdown" was causing issues. (He's at Barrett-Jackson this weekend and hopefully his impatience doesn't make him too trigger happy.)

I heard Trump was slapping another 25% tariffs on auto imports to pay for his wall. They may have impounded it for unpaid fees...

Because of the impending tarrifs EVERYONE is importing as much material as possible. Even shipping containers are in short supply.

I went through this with my MY2019.5, I don't think it anything other then, this process is slow as molasses, and asking a 1000 times like I did, doesn't make it any easier! (Haha, though I still would have asked again).

I'd pay to build a wall around Trump.

We're generally a friendly group on this forum. Let's avoid the politics to keep it that way, please.
