The difference is the typical month long German summer holiday. Plant is shut most of August.

Unless PTS/CXX Lock to Start Production has been a couple weeks…seems that is getting pushed to 3-4 with all the world events.

I'm out; picked up my BGTS last night. Amazing car and well worth the wait! Stek PPF and C. Quartz finest were applied before I picked it up (added 2 weeks or so given scheduling...).

From a visit to The Shop (detailing) last Friday prior to delivery (my garage isn't this clean!)

To recap for the curious:
-Confirmed interest late March 2021, on list for allocation
-Received allocation late Dec 2021
-Original delivery date 4/29
-Arrived at dealer 6/6, to detailer 6/7
-Took delivery 6/20 (if I hadn't had PPF and ceramic installed would have been 6/6)

It's been a flurry of activity here in the past 24 hours. Arrived JAX 05/31 on Aristotle, TYD status was Port Processing since 06/01. Suddenly yesterday afternoon TYD went to "enroute to dealer", then this morning to "arrival dealer" and this afternoon took delivery of the car so I'm out of the waiting room finally after almost exactly 9 months. Hang in there folks, the wait IS worth it. Good luck everyone!!

It's headed toward the west coast - SD and Benicia. It got to Emden 2 days ago, so I'm sure it'll leave port in the next 1-2 days.

Outstanding! Not long to go now. My car is en route to Emden. Needs a ride to Jacksonville, and then into PEC Atlanta. Really hoping I don’t get stuck at Emden for too long like a lot of others have reported.

Sweet, congrats! Mine should be here within the next couple of days, it’s been released for transport according to my SA.

I have been waiting since October 2021 and now I have 9 days left. The last 2 days have been worse than the first 2 months of wait. Super excited and can’t wait!!

Since i haven't had TYD for 3 weeks and my SA hasn't got back I decided to call Porsche NA. Apparently they don't have access to the build status so she had to contact another department and said my start has been pushed from 6/5 to either 6/28 or 7/8, she wasn't sure which. But she did give me the VIN that has been assigned. I thought VIN wasn't assigned until the build started? Confused.

Why is your dealer so completely absent from this process? Not good.
