So is mine. Must be a batch. Let's hope they will make it.

Makes me wonder... was the cause of the delay the paint choice? Not audio, seats, etc...

No idea. With all the supply chain and logistics issues these days, it's probably more than one thing, and then it sounds like cars get built with missing things, go to Emden and sit there until the final bits can be installed at Emden (which if true, means CP8.0 isn't as complete as we think).

I've got at GT4 with the following-

Exterior Color G1 Guards Red
Interior Color 29 Standard Interior in Black/Race-Tex with Silver Stitching
Optional Equipment
250 7-speed Porsche Doppelkupplung (PDK)
342 Heated Seats

581 Luggage Net in Passenger Footwell
583 Smoking Package
602 LED Headlights incl. Porsche Dynamic Light System Plus (PDLS+)
630 Light Design Package
748 Power Folding Exterior Mirrors
878 Steering Wheel and Gear Lever/Selector in Black Leather
9WT Apple CarPlay® incl. Siri®
P13 Auto-Dimming Mirrors with Integrated Rain Sensor
P1A Interior Trim in Anthracite Brushed Aluminum i.c.w. Standard Interior
P40 Navigation including Porsche Connect

I haven't posted here yet - I didn't want to jinx myself!

TYD updated today, Production Complete and Ready For Transport to Emden. Basically on schedule from March order and April 29 Freeze. Projected arrival to a Dealer in NJ (unloads in Rhode Island, versus Baltimore when I order from a local Chicagoland dealer) of August 12.

GT4 with PDK in GT Silver.

Knocking on wood that it doesn't encounter any delays from here!

We’re both 4/29 lock dates. You’re in Chicago getting a GT4 from a NJ dealer, I’m in NJ getting a GT4 from a Florida dealer! Good luck with the rest of your journey to home!

I'm another MY 22 with a CP 8.0 scheduled for 7/22. Today my status changed in TYD from Scheduled for Production to In-Production. Fortunately no change to dates.

  1. Things were looking good since April with a July 24th delivery.
  2. Car made it to Emden on June 22nd (milestone marked complete), and ahead of schedule for July 24th delivery.
  3. Then ... no updates and vessel related milestones came and went.
  4. Yesterday the journey updated with an August 28th delivery, and estimated to be on vessel by July 29th.
So strange. So it is sitting in Emden since June 22nd and expected to be there over 30 days? Not enough ships?

Not especially unusual, unfortunately. Mine sat in Emden for 30 days too.

MY 22 with CP 8.0 July 22?

I thought everything with a CP 8.0 June or later was a MY 23? That is when the configurator updates. In the past I when I order mid year I would basically get a MY +1, but at the original MY price.

Interesting, thanks for posting. All my previous orders went onto the boat within a couple days of arriving in Emden, so I assumed that was the norm.

I have a car that's likely been there about 12-15 days. It's going on the Violet Ace right now. (ship arrived late earlier today).

Depends on the ship schedules and how it all lines up with when the car arrives. With shipping issues and port labour challenges all around the world, delays are the result.

Not necessarily. Model year switchover has a lot of factors driving when that happens.

Very similar to me. Arrived in Emden on the same day, June 22nd, and is now predicted to be “on vessel” July 29th, delivery to dealer (PEC Atlanta) September 9th. Initial dates in TYD when I went to v200 we’re mid august delivery, then it moved up about a month to July. Hoping to not have too many more delays because I have a check on hand from Navy Fed for part of my purchase that is good for 90 days.

I think MY 23 production in June or July was a little bit of forum speculation based on previous dates members received in TYD. If my '22 Spyder is indeed In-Production this week/next week, I would not expect '23 models to start production until late August at the earliest - sometime after the August factory break.

Yes, I have a MY23 BGTS coming and although the freeze date has been delayed about a month, I froze the car a week ago before the original freeze date as I would be out of town. I was at the dealer getting everything nailed down and my S/A computer sez although the freeze date was moved back the delivery date remains the same in late October. the TDY agrees. I was told the car would actually go into production after the factory vacation.
