Got the notification today that manufacturing is complete on my BGTS 4.0; yesterday the expected completion date was 10/17. It definitely looks like Osnabrück is about four weeks ahead of the dates showing in TYD. Last 3 in the VIN is 235 if anyone is still keeping track of that.

Doh! They must be really backed-up. My car reached the port on Sept 6; it took almost two weeks to ship.

Are you allowed in this thread if you're awaiting delivery for a Spyder you bought pre-owned?

Hi all, new member here. I've been a lurker for a while as I make peace with moving on from Audi. Happy to report that I'm in line for my Cayman GTS allocation and thrilled to be joining the Porsche and Rennlist community! Thanks to all of you for sharing your detailed experiences here, I'll live vicariously through you all for the next 18 - 20 months haha.

Nice! My last 3 is 344 and scheduled to be complete on 10/19. Maybe I'll get notified in 2 days haha. What's your build code? Do you have natural leather?

Thanks!

I'll have to dig to find the build code, but it does include natural leather.

When I put my deposit down for the build spot that opened up to me, my dealership told me that natural leather was adding a month to the build time...at the time which was June/July. I'm wondering if that are getting it faster but still have the extra month built in. Better to deliver early than late!

Well!
After 4.5 months of multiple visits to this tread, many nights of anxiety, anticipation…sometimes excitement; it’s time to hop off this train.
It’s been a pleasure to see others get their cars over the months as I felt a weird “bond” of sorts with all stuck in the limbo of the production process…
All I can say is: hang in there; it’s worth it!



here she is at long last!
just out of PDI… off to detailer for PPF and some graphics.

Found out today my CGTS was competed. It was originally scheduled for 10/11/23 so about three weeks early. Next stop Zuffenhausen for ED in December.

Thank you! I am pumped for the Porsche experience and the GTS. So ready to have a real sports car and 3 pedals again.
