Update from my SA:

Hey man I found the problem and the problem is with your car like every other car it is currently listed on stop sale because of missing tire pressure sensors those are in extra short supply for all 911’s and all 718 chassis cars the boat in your car or coming through the Panama Canal tomorrow and I’m working with the guys in Atlanta to figure out when your Vin number gets cleared basically just meaning that Porsche knows they have enough equipment to finish these cars

I sure hope they are not taking parts from replacement engine cars to complete other cars...

OK. I have held off but am now joining this thread. I paid the deposit today and my build is locked. We will see if delivery can make it before the end of the year!

@JBSea Is that an older ADM slot just now getting used, or a “new” (recently provided to dealer) allocation? Do you know?

I assume the former, since “new” allocations come out next week, en masse.

I signed up for notifications on MarineTraffic and just received this update for those of us with cars on the Siem Cicero. Yes indeed it is heading to Baltimore first. It appears that it typically makes it to Houston about a week later and often stops in Jacksonville along the way.



UPDATE: Adding that she's on her way!

When you only have car doodads to get excited about, for a car you won’t have for another 6+ months.

My order was created on 9-9-21 for my 718 Spyder in Shark Blue 2. The original delivery date to the dealership was 12-24-21, now on “My Porsche” app/website is saying it might get to my dealership as early as 12-17-21.

My v200 was in May and my v260 was 09-09-21. That is all I know at the moment. SA is not a fantastic communicator but I have the allocation so......

I am not sure to be honest. You might be right. I put down the initial deposit way back in the spring. Then finally went to freeze date yesterday. They claim that I have HAD the allocation all summer but maybe I am part of this group of "new" allocations.

My SA said new allocations drop next week, usually. That doesn’t mean there will be any, necessarily.

Monday will mark my car going into the FOURTH week of production. It seems impossible to believe and I have no additional words to write.

Nah. Your allocation was sometime well before if it is just now locking.

My Spyder made it on the Siem Cicero. Cut it close by arriving at Emden day before ship departed for Baltimore. Now my VIN needs TPMS chip. My Sales Manager told me Porsche likely to start releasing cars for transport from Baltimore port to dealership once a chip/part is assigned to a particular VIN and part simultaneously shipped direct to dealership for installation. Ports are getting overrun with cars needing parts.
