I like having the hole personally so left mine at that on my BGTS build. In our Cayenne I use the hole for putting the key as we have keyless entry and drive on both cars, and it’s also handy for storing other things like a small bottle of hand sanitizer. I’m likely in the minority though 😂

I got my tracking sheet. I just ordered this car a week ago BGTS 4.0 with an existing V200 allocation. Anyone know the likelyhood of getting delayed? I really hope i get it by September!

That's a fast order! I ordered a month prior and am getting it 6 weeks later (cayman though)

No one really has vision to if it will get delayed outside of Porsche in Germany. Can you share your build?

Yup! Here: http://www.porsche-code.com/PNT1KC50
Highlights:
shark blue
black alcantara interior
premium package
18-ways

I'm guessing the 18-ways might cause delay here if anything

There might be slight delays especially if you ordered 18way seats due to global chip shortage. My V260 for my BGTS with 18 ways is about one month later now than my original estimate back in March. Currently for June 26.

Default My build...am I crazy???

Man it has been a whirlwind since this all started. I will spare you the details but this is where I ended up. Lock date just a few weeks away. My SA has also been my therapist through all of this. This buils was my idea but he is certain that I will love it and that I should hold the line on it. Would likely paint the calipers at some point but they are black for now. Lemme know what you think. As someone once said, "If you're gonna be a bear you may as well be a grissly bear!'.!!!

Great looking car! Love the Shark Blue in the Spyder. I think it works in those special cars. Congrats!

I like the Shark Blue and black calipers. Any particular reason why the yellow stitching? Just asking as most people usually pick yellow stitching when they opt for the PCCB to match the calipers? Just a thought but if you really want to shake it up, you can opt for Speed Blue interior stitching. Not an exact match (obviously by the name) but seems quite close.

How do determine which ship your car is loaded on, and then how do you track it across the ocean? Very cool!
