mine just moved from 7/6 to 7/26, even though I have the picture of it completed. Wondering if it’s missing some part, and their waiting to install it

Mine was 6/1... had my factory pics... but didn't finish until 6/21. You are more than likely in CT for Exclusive Manufaktur or CXX options.

Thanks, I guess that makes sense. Though you’d think it would have been taken into account in the timeline, since they know up front what the options are. Guess that’s why they say it’s all just a guesstimate. 😊

Hey Folks,

I will be picking up my MY23 SB at PECATL tomorrow. I can’t describe how excited I have been in past few days. It’s my 1st Porsche and never thought I can have any Porsche GT car in my life but it’s happening. I really appreciate a lot of fellows have shared lots tips and direction for me since last year.

I started hunting an allocation since last April. I got the allocation via Benpeacock last Nov with very reasonable ADM. I was super lucky to secure the bucket seat and PCCB before the stop sales as well. Then started TYD journey and up/down for some delays emotionally.

As many of fellows stated, it’s going to be worth for this long waiting and non-sense buying process(like ADM and additional package etc.) in the end of day. I wish those fellows who still waiting for the car, please hang tight and yours will come soon.

Big shout out for Graham from PECATL who coordinates all the delivery schedule and introduces the whole process as well as some nice photos before the delivery date.

Here are some photos to share before the big day tomorrow.

In the last two days, TYD updated from step 4 (in manufacturing) to step 7 (arrived at German port).
I don’t have any manufacturing pictures yet. Hopefully I’ll get those.
hopefully it’s gets on a boat in time for some nice fall drives.

Beautiful car! Congrats. How did you manage to get PCCB's on there? Thought they were impossible to spec at the time you secured the allocation.

Congrats JKen! Another first timer PCar! I did a GT4/3 experience at PECATL and it was an amazing experience! Enjoy!

Look forward to seeing the Shark Blue in Chicagoland!

Me too, for my GT4, between July 3 and July 5th!

My dealer tells me that my car is scheduled to load on a ship tomorrow, Their systems show more detail than TYD does.
