Anyone else on the SFL Conductor, it's eta is now 10-3 around noon for arrival to Davisville, vs the earlier 10-8, so we could see Jax and Hou a few days earlier. It will all depend how many cars are on board, so far storms don't look too bad, Sam doesn't appear to be a threat yet.

Congrats to all the recently acquired graduates, please keep the pics and reviews coming... It surely helps to pass the time

Yes, we could have our cars very soon. I am now trying to now figure out how I can do delivery. Being a 1000+ miles away takes a little planning, lol.

That will take some...strategery haha. I'd definitely confirm that you have your TPM's and other items in place before you pick out a delivery date. Best of luck. I already scheduled my PPF a bit earlier than I expect my car to show up...but now I'm debating if it will be even earlier with the possible ship cruising.

I am thinking that my car is complete since it was V260 for exactly one month. They could have whittled those TPMS sensors out of a metal block in that amount of time. Anyway, I believe it will be at the dealer by October 8 if there aren’t any glitches.

FWIW, I don't think it is the TPMS sensors in the wheels (the transmitters) or the receivers in the wheel wells that they are having to add. I think it is the single module that is in the frunk that they all feed to... so adding it should be really pretty simple.
It's the white box shown in this screen grab from a video showing it on a 981, in the corner near the brake master cylinder.

So I have not been keeping up with the latest. What model year cars are being delivered right now? Are they 2022's or still 2021's straggling in?
Are dealers being assigned 2022 allocations right now? Some SA's tell me yes and some tell me no. I don't know who to believe at this point. I want a 718 Spyder. I have a desire to build one to my specs. But I also don't want to wait a year for the car. I already waited almost two years for the C8 I'll be selling and I want my end game in the garage asap.

Here's what I've got now. 2021 hard top convertible, 2LT with mag ride and axle lift. Would welcome offers or trades. I need that third pedal.

MY22 went into production in July, so that is what is being delivered currently (or not delivered given supply chain issues). Not sure if there are any MY21 cars that haven't made it to dealers because of TPMS stop sale, but if there are then these are certainly already sold (Spyder/GT4).

At this point with the very limited allocations that have been released lately, you chances of a car within a year are not great given waitlists at most dealers. I'd be surprised if there where any dealers with allocations not yet assigned to customers. If you are definitely willing to pay ADM, then that might help your situation.

Here is the thread to follow for the latest allocation info:

The notion of getting an allocation right now without ADM is a pipe dream. I understand. That's kind of why I got the C8. To help defray the cost of what's about to come my way. I have something in the works, hopefully. Time will tell.

Are dealers GETTING allocations right now? Everyone wants to take my build code but not many promises out there about what exactly is going on.

I think there were only an unusually small number of allocations in June, and some dealers received none as reported by other Rennlisters. I think most are still waiting for September allocations, which may not come with production dates already delayed for allocations from March and June.

My 2022 CGTS is sitting at the dealer after several weeks at the port. My SA told me mine was the first 2022 GTS order for their dealership - I ordered it in April. A friend received an allocation for a base 718 Cayman yesterday and placed his order. He was told to expect a February delivery.

Dealers are not getting allocations right now. And dealers generally do not know when the next ones are coming. That is the reason the information you are getting is so confusing. It is simply because nobody really knows.

Good luck in your quest. You’re gonna need it. And I totally resonate with the need for a third pedal. I’d likely have a C8 if they offered it with one.

I saw a video from Nick Murray recently that the US is down some 80% of allocations/deliveries /cars...some ridiculous stat. Supposedly they are supposed to be getting more allocations coming in October/November. He also touched on dealers doing allocation farming, it's a few minutes worth of work. Also, if you live up near him in the NE, his dealership had a large selection of vehicles, one was a Red GT4. Embedded links are being dumb, my apologies...
