I'm thinking a long wait for me as well before delivery,
It's been sitting at German port for nearly a month now =(
Yeah it's been just over 3 months it's been at sea, but getting closer.

Oh bugger. I was lucky in that regard, think mine was on a ship within 9 days of being released for transport.

My dates moved up a bit overnight. I'm finally at V300 after starting production about 4 weeks ago. That date had been pushed back to June 5, so it was nice to see some changes in a positive direction. Now scheduled to be "on its way to the German port" tomorrow and arrive on June 2.

Crossing my fingers that I get lucky and it makes its way onto the next boat heading for Jacksonville, which would be the SFL Conductor leaving on June 15.

So my production completion has slipped from today, to another month out to 6-23. With ED scheduled for 7-10, this is cutting it super close and kind of worrisome lol.

TYD updated my production start as 5/23, and then I woke up this morning to the production pictures already posted and the car complete... wasn't expecting it to go that fast (3 days), but I won't complain.

You say complete... but I got a similar pic over a week ago and mine still isn't complete and the dates are being pushed back. I have no idea what it's waiting for... but it seems to be waiting for something.

Point taken... fingers crossed!

The TYD caption for the pic says "Your Porsched has reached the end of the production process and will immediately take the elevator down one level to be checked completely in the test facility"

So long as nothing goes sideways in acceptance testing!

Yeah, GT Silver, love the color, classy, easy to clean, ages well, good contrast for the curves/lines... I've always had a soft spot for *good* silvers on cars and this is a great silver.

I kept the brakes red for two reasons:
1) Bring a little color to an otherwise monochrome car
2) Tie in the red from the bumper reflectors and the brake lights

Can't go wrong with the Black calipers though, it'll be a clean look.

It's my understanding that there's a global shortage of wheel center caps and no ETA on when they'll see a new batch delivered.

Oh, oh, we're all in trouble as they are missing from all of our pictures!

God bless you,

There should've been one before that one, if my sequence of pictures is a good example. Some of us do not receive all the pictures, for example because a worker got in the way of the camera.

God bless you,

How many left are waiting on GT4's and Spyders that haven't gotten to production? Seems most of you are waiting on GTS's now? Are there any allocations left that haven't locked yet? I'm guessing probably very few if any.
I noticed a couple weeks ago the configurator dropped the Spyder and GT4 now too...

I don't think there are any unlocked GT car allocations left. The removal from the configurator seems like a good indication of that. It's not needed anymore by anyone.
