Will be speaking to my local dealer sometime today and will update the group what I learn, however an interesting tidbit for the west coast Canucks is that there is a GT4 on the way/arriving somewhere in BC this week; don't know colour or anything, but it was on a transport heading that way from Calgary.
I know that were at least a couple of GT4's ordered in Victoria (including a Chalk coloured one), I am sure that there are more in Vancouver and Kelowna as well.

Crappy news for me, got my updated build schedule and despite being V260 before the COVID shut down, my assembly exit has been pushed out by an additional 4 weeks from the last update...not not scheduled to be complete until May 29th, entry into Halifax July 3rd and probably at my local dealership end of July...I guess I'll have it for at least one summer month...
What was your original V260 date and the revised one?

Here's my updated timeline; first column is planned, second is expected and 3rd is actual. Went V260 officially on March 17th. Last update was that I'd be V300 May 8th. They did say this could be updated again next week once production restarts on the 20th as they're canceling dealer inventory builds and prioritizing customer orders. Whether or not this happens, we'll see.
Thanks. I had the same V260 but have not obtained an updated timeline yet from my SA.
May 29 is still a long time to complete production assuming production resumes next week... will be interesting to see a further updated timeline once the factory officially reopens. Could be that they planned for further delays but it will hopefully be completed sooner...

I guess I have to make a score card for you guys, " is he Canadian or US, east or west coast, GT4 or Spyder... as you know assuming GT4 in Osnabruck, different lead times then a Spyder in Zuffenhausen
I too had a V260 of Mar 20 for my Spyder and as they generally only take a week to build and assuming the factory restarted April 20th I figured it would be V270 before the end of April... Yes, wishful thinking or as I like to say positive thinking!

Those GT4 delivery dates will most likely be pushed. My car is finished sitting at port Emdem and the delivery is June 5th.
I agree with your Montana reg statement. That crap pisses me off.

Yes, these are allocation months, not delivery months. So that is when Porsche has them planned to go into the system. Currently they are mid/late May freeze dates.

Yeah, not a huge fan of the LLC stuff.
OK, now you have me curious about the Montana Maneuver?

Montana has no sales tax and no vehicle inspection. You only need a legal name to register it to: in most cases, an LLC. You pay a lawyer in Montana to register it, and you register the car in Montana under that LLC avoiding the large state tax on purchase if it were done in California (or other states).
This is largely done with higher priced cars because of how much you save by doing this...
