My RB GT4 is at V260, hopefully it will get to V300 in next week or two.

Just an update on my Oslo Blue GT4. It went V260 last week and the Porsche computer is showing expected delivery July 30 (though my SA is saying I should plan on the first week of August). It feels a lot more real now, but still two months to go.

Congrats on moving to the next phase. I know how the wait is painful but glad to see you're not affected by the suspension or con rod fiasco. It won't be long now. Hang in there.

Thanks! I really feel for everyone affected by the recalls, especially the con rod situation, but I count myself very lucky. Had I not switched my order to PTS, my car would have been smack in the middle of the con rod period. I hope all those folks get their cars soon!

I hit V300 last week and V334 (Exit factory compound Kernwestheim) just yesterday!

It's almost surreal, right? In a month and a half (best guess), I'll be dropping into the driver's seat and turning the key!

Fantastic. Next step is to track the ship...

My GT4 arrived at the dealer 5/27 after a short delay at port for TPMS. I’m lucky on several counts: missed the con rod issue by about 30 VIN numbers, relatively short port delay.

Car arrived in good shape. Bought it same day (to facilitate sale before end of month which helps dealer). My PPF guy is busy. The dealer did most of the PDI. It sat Memorial Day weekend. June 1 it shipped to PPF guy for windshield protection, paint correction and protection and ceramic coat and window tint. Still not finished. Hoping it’s ready by mid next week.

My process began with a deposit Sept 2020. After all these months of waiting, THIS PERIOD is by far the most difficult. It’s here but not in my garage. I want to DRIVE it and enjoy it. Obviously first-world problems and VERY lucky to be in this position. Really looking forward to getting it HOME!

That's one busy PPF guy! Hope your estimate becomes a reality.

Ooops - just fixed my typo above. Car arrived at the dealer 5/27 (not 5/17). But it still feels like a long time. Yes, the PPF guy is busy. But it’s also a big job. I opted for paint correction, full PPF, ceramic over entire PPF plus wheel faces and calipers and window tint. My understanding is that doing full PPF with edges wrapped is a very big, time consuming job. I knew this going in. He has done several cars for us - and we’ve been very pleased with his work. So I believe it’ll be worth the wait. After corresponding with him yesterday, it sounds like it’ll be ready mid-next week (fingers crossed).

I know this will all be a faded memory once it’s in the garage. I just need to stay extra busy for now

Cool to see you compiling this data halfmonkey. Are you able to share the mix of the 4 models so far? For example, how many cars total, and how many are CGTS, BGTS, GT4, and Spyder? I'd be interested to know and this seems like a good representative data set!
