MY 2021 718 release had nothing to do with COVID.
The on sale date was always 4 Dec.
The EPA certified the 2021 MY middle of Nov and were immediately released for sale.
CARB cert came about a month later for those 12 CARB states.
Early builds were in port in late Sept.
Same for 992s; which were in port in July I believe.
Porsche has a MY release date and they attempt to get the EPA/CARB done in parallel.

One thing to note about this is that Porsche routinely stockpiles cars at the ports I guess. So having the Stop-Sale cars there for a few months is actually not that atypical.

But something is going on for more than one of us it seems. Vehicle completion now jumped from 7/30 to 9/10 with arrival here now estimated at 10/29. Maybe Boxtop and I are looking at the same ship.
Darn. I guess I need to update my signature line now.
My SA says he wouldn't be surprised to see it move back to something sooner though.

Seems like almost everyone is looking at 10/29 now. I've been V200 since early may and my V900 date has always been 10/29 and I was a little jealous based on the posts I'd been seeing, but now I don't feel so bad.

V900 on Feb 2, 2022, so 10/29 sounds great! lol
It's all relative.

Well... I went and asked since my timing was about the same as those of you above. I was also expecting a 9/10 estimated delivery after entering the body shop last Wednesday 7/23.

No doubt, and for frame of reference, I went on a list for 2020 Spyder in the spring of 2017, traded in my 2016 BGTS in July of 2019, didn't get an allocation until September of 2019 and because of factory shutdown due to Covid-19 didn't get my Spyder until mid-July of 2020... so I know a thing or two about waiting.
I started seriously looking for Spyder allocation March 2020 when COVID hit.
Traded in 991 July 2020 to secure allocation for expected April 2021 delivery.
Then conrod hit.
My March 2021 request for new allocation was basically stone walled. If you don’t like the engine replacement option? Too bad. Get in line while we deal with others first.
Now possibly spring 2022 delivery.
I guess it could be worse, some people never get the car….if I didn’t pre-trade, I probably won’t even get a car.

Anybody know Canadian dealers with 2021 allocations or early 2022?

So if you place an order demand with a dealer, where do you get the Vxxx updates? Looks like I'm at v070? When I put my deposit down I didn't get papers like shown above, only a printout of my build and a sheet with the car and pricing... The way these things are handled leaves a lot to be desired.
