@JP66 Yes, commission number positively identifies your car, from what I know.
You need to get your SA to sign you up for TYD, or call 800-Porsche. I think they can do it, too.

Wow, you got an allocation now and it delivers May 13th? You must have inherited one recently abandoned. Lucky!!

@MechEngr1287 Mine delivers to Houston, so they must float yours to Miami as they sail by? Or I guess a car hauler from Houston.

Yes! And for me, this forum and the car itself are meant to be exactly the opposite — a respite from all the awful things.

My car has been stuck in CT for a month.

The car is version 2 after conrod fiasco. Yes I know, some of this wait is self inflicted.

If it makes you guys feel any better, original car is supposed to be delivered April 2021. Traded my old car in July 2020. Started looking for allocation March 2020.

So clock is still ticking after two years…..my wait better not outlast the pandemic.

FWIW, My experience with TYD is that it's comically bad. I'm not sure why it even has any dates when they aren't accurate. Porsche obviously has accurate data in PSVMS, which should be the source of truth for TYD. What a horrible customer experience for people excited about a large purchase that they're passionate about. Additionally, a nightmare for SA's who have to constantly track the process of cars for excited customers.

My car was stuck in various states on TYD and I wouldn't recommend getting your hopes up or down based on what it shows. It took 2 weeks from when my SA emailed me production was complete before TYD updated and I got a few of the pics.

I'd say I have a pretty good shot at delivery, but am still in the mindset of not getting my hopes up until I see this thing IRL and have title in hand.

How do you get the build picture on TYD? Or is it not off of TYD?

I think it is check point 8.0 the final inspection a shaking roller so suspension will settle and toe and camber can be set at end of production

I also received a picture of my Aventurine Green GTS 4.0 from Porsche a week or two after production. The car is on the Siem Confucius, scheduled to arrive in Halifax on March 7th. They had a rough crossing so I hope all is OK.

Yes, it's from the end of the production line. I just cropped it a bit.
