The earliest I have seen posted on here of the BUILD date is 7/15(for 2022 builds and susbequently Shark Blue). I have seen a 2021 build posted on here of 7/14. Not saying that is the "break point" but it might be. Mine is a 7/16 build with a 9/17 delivery. That delivery date has floated around a bit. It was originally 9/10. My SA said there is a good chance it will be earlier since we live in a major port(Houston) and likely not much delay on the transfer from ship to dealership. So to answer your question, Early September unless someone else has a different take on it. And trust me....it is a bit nerve racking ordering a color I have never seen....and then going with the yellow interior trim. But I think it will look awesome!!!

I had to settle for seeing some VW’s in Cornflower Blue instead, which is the same as Shark Blue. I reluctantly changed my color to Chalk the next day since I know that color well. I had a Chalk Cayman before . I still have mixed feelings changing the color, but I didn’t want to take that chance.

Also, were you not satisfied with the shark blue GT3 pics? I do wish I would’ve seen some shark blue 718s as well, but I’m confident it’ll look good regardless!

Last time I talked to my SA, he said as soon as the build locks and is out of V200, I would get an email from Porsche with a link to "track your dream" to monitor the progress.

I totally get what you’re saying about ordering sight unseen but from all the photos I’ve gathered, Shark looks really close to Voodoo which is one of my favorite blues (Voodoo, Mexico, Arrow). It’ll be nice to have a new color on the road but it won’t last long seeing that it’s a standard option on ‘22s 😅
