Wow! Love the Houndstooth/Pepita and seat piping. We have the Houndstooth/Pepita and seat piping but we have the 18 way. Looks like you got the headlight washers in PTS as well, correct? Anything else? Enjoy!

Looks like Euro deliveries are once again on hold/cancelled...

"We would like to provide an update based on recent information coming out of Germany. The German government extended the country’s lockdown until April 18th due to rising infection numbers. What does this mean for European Delivery? Unfortunately, we are unable to book hotels, meals, detailed vehicle handovers, tours, and regulations may prevent customers from entering the country to collect their vehicle. Additionally, if customers are allowed into the country, they would need to arrive 10 days in advance to quarantine and obtain a negative Covid-19 test within 5 days of vehicle delivery. As a result, we have made the very difficult decision to postpone European Delivery until the summer factory closure has ended and lockdown restrictions have been lifted. The uncertainty of Covid-19 has made it nearly impossible for our customers to finalize travel plans in order to participate in the full European Delivery experience. I know this will undoubtedly be an inconvenience, but at this time we need to cancel your European delivery and have your vehicle shipped to the US. We would like to offer you a PEC Atlanta or PEC LA delivery at no charge. Again, I am very sorry to deliver such bad news in such short notice. Please do not hesitate to reach out with any questions."

It might just be the best color on the car 10/10!!

Here’s another Viola Metallic sitting on the showroom floor.

Beautiful color.

Wondering about what, if any, effect the connecting rod bolt tension loosening issue may have on production:
(a) Has anyone whose build was locked for production been given a later production date than the original estimate?
(b) Has anyone's dealer indicated that the allocation process has been temporarily slowed or stopped? Conversely, anyone's dealer get a new allocation in the last week or so?

It could be that the factory moves forward normally, and the After Sales department takes on the ~1000 engines to deal with globally.

My '21 Spyder build was delayed one month, from May to June.

My 21 GT4 entry to body shop date remained the same (today in theory). The completion date moved from 4/2 to 4/9.
I will check with my SA next week to see if there are any more changes. As of two days ago the dates were still intact.

great site, only problem is that lurking here only heightens the anticipation.

BTW, my original Fix date(V250) was changed from 4/16 to 3/30 a few days ago.. Not sure what to infer from that relative to ConRod problems.

Car is only to be a street car, never tracked. Will likely remain largely stock except for an OAP and attempts to reduce understeer.

Thanks for checking in. I've added you to the spreadsheet. Just an fyi though, this thread is for the PTS (Paint To Sample) vehicles. There is a separate non-PTS thread as well. No worries though.

Quick question. Is your car the Cayman or Boxster?
