Ok who else is on a boat scheduled to arrive in Baltimore (according to TYD) on 3/13? What's the name of the boat you are on?
Waiting on my dealer to tell me which boat for my order. But last time I asked, his records hadn't updated yet, and now my regular contact is on vacation (and this isn't important enough to bug somebody else). I followed the list someone had posted above for the VW carrier ships and made an educated guess my car is on the SIEM CICERO but given the VERY different path that TYD shows, vs. what satellite tracking shows for that boat (and the dates are "close" but don't line up perfectly) - I don't think I'm on that boat. TYD shows my car is on a boat just outside of Nova Scotia right now. Satellite tracking of the SIEM CICERO shows it just past the Acores islands in the Atlantic.
Curious to see what other boat it could be.

When on my.porsche this is what I see. Is there a different button for TYD? I am seeing others posted about a total of 8 steps, not just 4.

Hi everyone, excited to finally be able to join the waiting room. I originally put down a deposit for a boxer gts 4.0 in Aug/21, thinking that it would be easier to get than a spyder. Was waiting and waiting and almost lost hope. Finally got a call from my SA Dec/22 thinking a gts allocation was coming but turned out that they had a spyder allocation and asked if I was interested. Instantly said yes and spent hours on the configurator building the spyder. Locked in the order and just passed my freeze date march 3rd 2023, production is set for March 26th and expecting delivery for sometime in May. This will be my first Porsche and the wait has been excruciating to say the least. Looking forward to sharing this journey with everyone here and learning lots from all your experiences.

Sounds like that couldn't have worked out better. Similar thing with my GT4. I put in deposits on CGTS and GT4 assuming I would not get the GT4. Ended up getting it! Currently in 2/4 Phase, production!

Definitely couldn’t of worked out better. The spyder was the dream but thinking that it’s my first Porsche with no purchase history I went with the BGTS 4.0 thinking I would Atleast have a small chance to secure an allocation. When they called for the spyder I was beyond excited. Just a few more months of waiting now……

Go to the "discover current phase" page to see which step they currently have you at. I found TYD to be 1-2 steps behind the actual milestone my GT4 was at.
I'd be more concerned about the wheels they optioned you... mine never looked like that. Did they do a stop order on the OEM GT4 wheels?

This is just a summary of the steps in the process.

The image I provided has a disclaimer at the bottom, which I didn't include in the first photo. Here it is. I optioned Black wheels.

I had an eye roll when I first logged on to TYD when I saw the same wheels. Oddly, the image on TYD will update to the black rims closer to the last phases.

Has anyone else's build (Boxster GTS) caught the persistent delay bug? Originally mine was supposed to have shipped in December but was delayed multiple times. I checked last week, it said production should be complete on 3/3/23. I just checked again and am now seeing 3/27/23. I haven't heard anything meaningful from the dealer beyond sorry it got delayed. Is there a part shortage ?

Each time the delay was added on the day production was supposed to finish. Pictures were posted of the nearly completed car in the profile shot right when the configurator updated a few weeks ago. I'm thinking it's missing something minor to complete but don't know. Not that I'm in a rush but dealer can't find out anything.

Spyder but yes. My car started production at the end of December and has received two delays; from end of January to mid February and then again to mid March.

I have no real rush either, but I have a road trip in June I'm hoping to have the car for.

Sign me up to the club, I put down a deposit for a CGTS, didn’t think I would have a chance at getting a GT4 but as luck would have it, someone bailed on their order and I took it. Should be taking delivery in about 2 weeks.
