I asked the SA this question, like if any of the options could be the issue but he said "we don't know".

Nothing too unusual I think. Maybe stainless steel illuminated sills? Leather/racetex, PDK, 18-ways, Burmester, LCA. No premium pkg, so no LEDs, E&D. My build code: PNG5ZMF5.

Until few days ago my CP 8.0 in TYD was early June, 6/3 or 6/4 I think. And it moved up by few days, previously it was 6/8. In anycase, if the car is build and remains 2022, and arrives in August I will still be happy!

And the SA says "V215 means locked and nothing can be changed"... not sure he is correct, but I don't want to make any changes, so I am not going to further inquire.

I have a friend who is an SA at my local Porsche dealer. He ordered a Taycan for himself, which arrived several weeks ago, but is still not delivered because the Burmester parts and software are not available. The car sat in port (San Diego) for several weeks. It’s now at his dealership, but he can’t take it yet.
The Burmester may be delaying your order. Just a guess.

Interesting. I also read Bose is the cause of delay for some orders...

Interesting. I do have Burmester and PCCBs but you would think that any supply chain delay was already factored in as they already pushed it back over a month from the original date. I wonder if something changed.

I’m Bose. I have heard from some sources that Bose are delaying and from others that Burmeister is delaying, it I think there’s more evidence that it’s the Burmeister. I hope it gets resolved quickly for you whatever it is.

I have Bose on my build. Car was finished 4/18. Should be delivered around Memorial Day.
The Bose selection didn’t slow down my build, but maybe things have changed.

Does drifting in this context just mean it's hanging out waiting for its turn?

Yup. You’re waiting for your entry into the canal. You can tell your ship is anchored because the longitude and latitude numbers are staying pretty much the same from report to report.

It's official. My BGTS is V260, and I've got a VIN number. 😲

Nice. What was you timeline? Original V200 allocation, original scheduled CP8.0?

Based on original estimates my BGTS was supposed to be built 10 days ago. Current estimate 7/8

Getting off in SD.

Taking delivery at Circle in Long Beach.

I am anticipating about 2 weeks from now.
