Yup, you were one of the other two I knew about.

My wife is providing me with hourly updates on the location of the boat on which her Spyder is loaded.

When does a build actually "lock"? My change freeze point has been met several times and changed. It's currently showing v210, but v250 is vehicle fixed?

^ dunno, all bets are off with the last year. 3 weeks after my lock date passed my build was still open according to my SA. He didn't know why (and no updated lock date from Porsche either). Mine was supposed to lock about 8 weeks before it's build date but ended up actually locking 4.5 weeks or so before.

If no CXX or PTS lock is usually 2 weeks before production. If production moves, lock moves.

I heard CP Rail in Canada may be striking next week. I hope this doesn't affect any cars coming from Halifax.

Hello everybody, happy to say I am joining the waiting room officially! My GT4 has been in V200 for a few weeks now, my freeze date is coming up on 3/15 and my car is set to arrive on 6/13. After over a year and a half of waiting I am more excited than ever. My build is Shark Blue.

Mine landed in Halifax last week, so I’m hoping the same thing.

I’ll start by saying I know very little about rail systems, but it appears that CN serves Halifax. Fingers are crossed.

Looks like a nice build, congratulations! Getting a car these days seems like a lottery win.

I posted this on a dedicated maintenance thread but didn't get any responses so I figured I'd post it here. I'll hopefully be taking delivery on my GT4 in the next week or two. I was wondering if people have insight into the prepaid maintenance and tire plans. Will be driving the car in Maryland. Probably only about 3k miles per year, and probably will not be driving in any kind of bad weather. Seems from previous posts that I've read that the tire and wheel plan may not be worth it. What do people think about the different prepaid maintenance plans (+1 year, +2 years, etc)? I want to maintain the car well and will probably take it to the Porsche dealer for all of its scheduled maintenance. I imagine maintenance costs will be fairly high. The dealer has not yet given me quotes on the different plans, but I was wondering if anyone has opinions based on their experiences.
