Thanks to all for the knowledge and encouragement!
Bought the car at MSRP from Bluegrass Motorsports, aka Porsche Louisville. Couldn't be much happier with the experience overall as a first time buyer from a Porsche dealer.

Again, good luck to those still waiting, I know your pain, but it's over!

Thank you @tigster !! This was a great help!! After following all the steps, I just searched on "IMO_" and it took me right to where I needed to be.

Well I guess factory workers liked photo bombing my car. I only received two of the four photos of my Spyder. Rear 3/4 and side top down at the elevator. I guess of the two I got, they are the best views for seeing the specific options I selected. My schedule still hasn't changed... Completion 1st of June with Delivery 22nd of July. 🤞🏼

Anyone have the latest PWL Volkswagen schedule? They don't update it on their website.

I wonder where they get these from? The website still gives you week 7!

Anyone else's TYD NMC this morning? None of the features seem to work once logged-in (a challenge in itself). For example, clicking "View My Order" does nothing save once, but then on next screen couldn't scroll through the milestones. All this from multiple devices.

I was scheduled to hit milestone 4 yesterday so was curious to see the progression...TYD has an uncanny ability to know when to be especially useless. Cheers.

Thanks for the confirmation, I guess we all need to embrace the suck. And I'll try a different laptop to see if that moves the needle. Cheers.

Yes, lots of glitches. TYD has been estimating for a week that my wife's and my 718 would be leaving the German port on 5/23, which was more than a week ago. However, dealer says it's on a ship but can't find the name of the ship. I'm honestly not sure TYD is much of an improvement and it surely is a source of confusion.

God bless you,

Received this image via TYD from the past weekend. TYD states 5/30 completion (hasn't been confirmed), dealer tracking states 6/2. 🤷🏻‍♂️ Getting closer and closer!!!

What's going on with the Sunshine Ace? Thought it should be out in the ocean and now it looks like it went back to Emden.

Second site shows its real location:

As mentioned earlier from others, My TYD is now not working. Won't let me get click "View my order"
Killing me as I'm suppose to be factory completed as of yesterday.
