Wow such wildly different experiences. For me production started 1/13, not complete yet, and since it's entered production it's been delayed from 3/11 estimated delivery to 4/1. BGTS 4.0. They estimate production complete on 2/11.

Yeah. I just spoke to my SA, he said system dates have been all over the place.
Took the plunge today. Just ordered a 2022 Spyder exactly the way I want it. Should be here by June they tell me.
Any downside or privacy issues with posting the Porsche Code for others to look at and comment? I really wanted Chalk with the red top but that can only be configured with Spyder Classic Interior, which I did not want due to the RED dashboard.

Sweet build. I had a 996 with a red dash. Red EVERYTHING! At first I passed on buying the car because of it. I later went back and bought it. That car was the hit at the local shows. I grew to love it. So, just saying. I did add black floor mats to clam things down a tiny bit.
People all post their build codes here. I assume no issues with doing so.

Good question re the Porsche Code. The only downside I see is someone may duplicate your build but who cares really. I love when folks share them to get me outta my head and into someone else's design perspective. I also love catching little things like the rear Porsche logo in chrome. If you're getting a GTS with blacked out features it's really best to get the logo painted black as well, to fit in with the aesthetic of the car, but some miss that and it's hard to change after the fact.

And some like it that way so it stands out especially when they delete the lettering on the bumper
But yes, let everyone weigh in on your build. It helps feed the fire in all of us!

So my GT4 is supposed to arrive in early March. This is my first high end car so I'm new to PPF. Thinking about doing Xpel Ultimate Plus on the whole front and fenders and also a ceramic coat on top of that over the whole car. This is basically what the shop that I'm considering using recommended (All American Paint Protection in Rockville, MD). Wondering if anyone has any advice or thoughts on this. Is it worth it? Will it change the appearance of the car or paint color (shark blue)?
Also thinking about tinting the windows. They use Xpel window tint as well. Anyone know anything about the different Xpel tints (Xpel prime CS vs prime XR vs prime XR plus)?

I decided to allow the PORSCHE to remain silver as I like how it stands out, and I opted for the model deletion because I thought it was a cleaner look. I guess if someone wants to copy my build I'll take it as a compliment.

I can't wait. I just endured a two year wait for my C8 and now it starts all over again. Anyone want a C8? lol
I know TYD is pretty poor historically, but it has gone from an anticipated Production Complete date of 1/14...to 3/18. I sure hope it's wrong...
Same for me. I really hope my car isn’t in production for two months. TYD is a mess. However, my SA confirmed the dates in his system match TYD. I guess time will tell. 😔

Xpel is great. This time around I did PPF on every inch of the car. Then ceramic over that. I love knowing how well protected and preserved the paint will be, both from damage asked swirl marks.
