TYD had my production date scheduled for 6/12 - it just updated last night and showed production started on 6/15.

One step closer...

I feel for bravoraider, I would be going even more nuts.
This tracking system is frustrating at best and to me just makes Porsche and the dealer look bad. It should be a wonderful tool, but the updates and communication are not even close. It was kind of an adventure trying to figure out ships and the like, But my car has been sitting in the Houston port now for over a month and the revised timeline said it should have been at PECLA 6/7. Originally I was thinking this would be reasonable, but then PECLA contacted me and gave me a mid July earliest date. I was not happy because now I am having to wait until the hottest time of summer for my experience as well as not being able to take delivery of my car for nearly two months after what it originally projected. My dealer said they cannot change and do the delivery until it goes through PECLA since that was a selected option. My dealer has been trying to fill in the gaps and told me PECLA stores the cars in an enclosed building, but they obviously don't even take them in until just before you arrive for delivery, (which again is mid July for me). All this process is doing for me is making me focus on my car sitting outside exposed to the elements that are less than desirable in a port - like salt air, bird droppings, and hot temperatures. .I understand many say it will be all worth it once the car is delivered, but I already have a diminished experience and most of this is because of the poor communication and coordination of this tracking system.

I wouldn't take that date as indicative of anything other than it's a generic window of possibility.

I originally had a ship date of early June, it got moved to 6/28 (just like yours), then it shipped out on 6/11.

Currently TYD shows it's "scheduled" to arrive in port on 6/30, but I know for a fact that the vessel it is on will dock on 6/21.

Admittedly, I am one of the lucky ones it seems, as my car was only at the port for ~10 days before it caught a ride, but even with that, though the dates are inaccurate, they have been "close" and TYD has been good about actually updating and notifying me when the status has changed.

So... there is for sure a boat that will be docking next week in Emden that you could be on (SFL Conductor), so you could beat that 6/28 estimate.

To be fair on Porsche's side, there is a disclaimer under the timeline that says the dates are non-binding and may vary.

For those waiting at port, jump on google maps, pull up Emden Port, and then use the Satellite layer to look around... it's pretty eye opening to see the immense scale of the number of cars that are there waiting for shipment to some far off land.

Fully understand the disclaimer.

Sales 101 is to under promise and over deliver.

Porsche TYD and Sales Advisor both stated 3 months until delivery when order was officially placed.

Porsche has missed 3 milestones so far and is currently projecting an additional 3 months over initial quoted 3 (6 months total).

Keep in mind this is IF the current TYD holds, which I am doubtful of.

Additionally my freeze date was in March when Carbon Bucket seats and PCCB couldn't be spec'd.

Frustration after frustration with ZERO communication from my sales advisor.

With my luck I will get the GT4 just in time for first snow fall......

Welcome to the fun process of Porsche ordering!

Sincerely, someone who waited 11 months from allocation to delivery last year.

bravoraider

From allocation received or initial deposit made?

From initial deposit I'm at 1.5 years.

Ouch.

Admittedly, Lucky here, but I am going to be ~4 months deposit to delivery (should the car get released from the delivery port promptly upon arrival next week).

My TYD updated today. Start of manufacturing went 6/7 to 6/15. 7/26 ECD for completion of manufacturing.

Same here. Demand Order/deposit October 2021 lol. One helluva gestation period.

allocation.

Spyder Scott

My Spyder was supposed to be delivered to me 5-16, then 5-26, then 6-16, now 7-21. Supposed to on the way to the port 6-13. As of tonight, no update on departure for port.
We are all along for the ride. I'll get my car sometime between now and August. No false expectations. I'm just happy to be getting the car. My dealers last Spyder allocation.

You have the right attitude, It just seems to take sooo long...
