That's normal in a typical production build. Mine starts and finishes on 8/26.

Just logged in and my change freeze date was completed last week, has now just gone to be back open with an EST. date of 7/19. And so goes this roller coaster, many ups and downs.

Seems that many of us are experiencing similar things. My change freeze date just shifted yet again to the right by 10 days- but the rest of the production schedule remains the same. Production to start and end on 8/26 (which was my delivery date two weeks ago), and delivery to dealer 9/23.

The date that matters is the Vehicle Fixed date. Freeze can fluctuate a lot without other dates changing and usually locks in 7-10 days before production begins but Vehicle Fixed (V250) is the one that needs to hold. That's when all the parts are accounted for and everything is locked in for production to begin. TYD doesn't show Vehicle Fixed but your PVMS report will. Once you go V250 you're good to go.

I've hit several "change freeze points" only to have Porsche add days or weeks within a day or two of doing so. Hit another yesterday, had Porsche add two weeks to make a new freeze date (7/27) and this morning changed it to two days from now (7/15). Current production scheduled for 7/29 and CP8.0 8/26. Supposed to be here late September coming through Houston, if I see it before the snow here in Denver I'll consider it a win

I do have the vin so I have the insurance quote and financing but I would like to know where my car is and maybe have possession before I start making payments.

I am in the same "boat". V250 status. And have VIN as well. Stuck in Scheduled for Production still, while start date shows 7/1 and CP8.0 shows 7/22. My SA says they must be building the car already...

I’m the same exact status as you Unclemat, sooner or later we’ll move forward and then hopefully not be stuck in Emden Purgatory as other cars get on ships!

Well back to change freeze point completed status as of 7/6, so I guess that's better than it getting pushed out this AM.

Arrival Emden Port: June 02, 2022
Expected On Vessel: July 29, 2022

Geez... Eight weeks sitting in Emden Port? Are these cars subjected to whatever weather and salt air Mother Nature throws at Northern Germany? The thought of my $12k PTS paint sitting around for 2 months of salt spray makes me sad.

My Porsche shows status as Ready for Production but TYD says start production was 6/28 and CP8 is 7/29. Seems awfully long to be in production. Are you guys with July CP8s still MY 22 like me?

Sitting there in the salt air, righ along side you since the end of May. I guess we can’t say 100% garage kept or never seen rain or weather now when we sell em. Let’s hope for some ships soon.

Some 992s sat in US ports for 5 months awaiting EPA/CARB release…you’ll be fine.

Status update in TYD for me just now…everything from CP8 onwards got pushed back 1 week. Completion is now 7/22, on board is 7/29 and dealer arrival is now 8/19. Not a surprise really, at least on the shipment and ultimate ETA dates, especially when considering the timing of upcoming ships that will dock in Baltimore.

Yeah my dates are bouncing around all over the place too. Just since this morning they've changed twice.

Freeze date moved from 7/28 this morning (from 7/18 two days ago) to TOMORROW the 14th... but production moved back by another week to 9/2.

Oh well. I got this allocation as a surprise, didn't think I'd get it for another several months to a year... and I also have read elsewhere on here that there may be a delay or even order stop on Arctic Grey paint, which is where I've landed on color. I can take another couple of weeks... but man it's all relative, isn't it?

I really wish I could develop some personal discipline to only check this **** at least once a week.
