CGTS 4.0 coming late July (fingers crossed), replacing my 981 Cayman.

Same colour combinations as my 3 weeks old CGTS 4.0.

Hello All. Excuse me if this might have already been discussed. When i log in to Porsche.com, it still says my car (GT4RS) is in the manufacturing phase yet i've been able to see two photos (body/chassis from paint booth and also the completed photo on the elevator). Only can see two photos but what's weirder is those photos have been there since 3/17 and the process timeline says the car will be completed on 5/16. Seems weird!

Everyone is complaining about not getting 4 pictures. Meanwhile my car was built on 4/3 and I got no photos. 😢

I have officially joined the club again (haha):


Tracking has gotten so much better than when I ordered my 2020 Spyder.

More details to come...

For all those getting obsessed with the TYD updates (as I have been for months)...
The system is better than it was several months ago - but it still lags quite a lot. It doesn't seem to update over the weekend and often is several days behind.
I know my car has arrived at the Jacksonville port and has been unloaded - I know this because the ship it was on docked there on the 21st for a day and has already departed heading to it's next destination...
However today - 3 days later - TYD still shows the car at sea and not arrived (even through TYD states it should have arrived today).

All to say - it's not a precise tracking tool... so if things are not progressing it's often just the system lagging.

Well considering when I ordered my 2020 Spyder TYD didn't even exist yet, I will live with the delays once deployed for transport. I can track via AIS for more precision anyway. More in the dark from arrival port to dealer... but that is typically only days.
Plus factory photos are a huge new thing for me!!! Haha

Yep - but it's not days from port to dealer...
TDY is showing mine will take 3 weeks to process through port before transport date.
Dealership is telling me they expect it to be more like 4 weeks.

So now it's back into the black hole while I wait to see movement on TYD.
The only time there's any precise tracking during this process is when the car is actually on a ship and you can track the ship via 3rd party app...

All first world problems...

Update
TYD now shows the car as having arrived at port - but it's showing it arrived today 24th... though I know it arrived on the 21st and was unloaded on the 21st. So TYD isn't even updating retroactively to correct days after the fact.

Similar with my Spyder. Went in for production on 4/14, got all 4 photos on 4/19, and now stuck in CT Assembly phase with new production completion date of 5/25 (from 4/21).... Car looks complete and I don't get what parts could be missing.

No pics yet, but using the Inspect Element method I see mine is now V260! The VIN is also available.

It’s finally happening
