TYD has simply adjusted to reflect the new PSVMS range data implemented about a month ago.

This is nothing to worry about.

My car is arriving Freeport today and was previously scheduled for dealer 6 June. Now range is 2 June to 21 July.

Most cars on schedule. New date range just covers few builds that get stuck for whatever reason

Was this change implemented to be more "accurate" in ETA? I wonder if maybe a lot of people were complaining that TYD didnt accuratly represent what they actually saw for their car delivery times. But at the same time there is a discaimer that all times posted are not guaranteed so...who knows.

Either way it does seem like my car might get here almost a month earlier than originally planned which is nice.

Mine also now shows the earliest possible date as 16 days sooner than originally expected, which would be cool as well (even tho I won't be in the country) but I really hope it is not later, I'll have like 2 weeks before I start law school to get all the ppf/mods/ initial stuff out of the way that will be a PAIN once I start my semester. Texted my SA as well awaiting a response.

I find it interesting how different the Porsche App is from the browser TYD. Browser just updated and is now showing the furthest delivery time being September 4th with earliest being June 29th. Porsche App is showing latest still being October.

Same deal here--originally expected at the dealer 9/16, but now the day counter went up super high and I have a range from 9/2 to like 11/18...lol. Like a poster said earlier, it looks like they just added range. With regards to the app vs the browser, I was on the phone with PorscheNA IT a couple of weeks ago as they were trying to connect my new car so I can use TYD, and he told me, "use the browser, trust me--it is better than the app." So that's part of my morning coffee routine. When I went ballistic about the dates yesterday, my wife told me "leave that dayum site alone before you stroke out!" LOL. I felt like Charlie Brown trying to kick the football

dodging speed cameras in Austria as we speak. Waze has been super helpful so far.

How did you receive your ticket? I just did a giant lap around Germany and saw few cops but many cameras. Did 130 mph in a piece o junk Opel. I'm waiting.

Mine was in Stuttgart in one of the 30kph zones (I didn't slow down fast enough from 50kph). They sent me the bill and picture in snail mail to the US, so I saw it 6 weeks later... Now I try to figure out how to pay it, since their website only lets you pay it within a week after getting the ticket. Mind you, it was 30 Euros.... so not a big deal. Fortunately, I was able to dodge all others in Germany, Switzerland (where Waze is not allowed to show speed cameras), Austria, and Italy....

Enjoy the trip and good luck in avoiding the speed traps!

Per snail mail (since my Euro Delivery plate was tied to my US address). If you were driving a rental car, the rental car company usually will forward you the bill with a hefty surcharge.

Anyone with a US delivery on the west coast have a car at Emden Port right now? Curious if my car will be on a boat this week.

My car has been there since Monday as per the app. Online has a technical error. I’m West Coast Canada but I assume we will be on the same boat. I’m going to message my SA for an update tomorrow.

crossing my fingers that our cars get on a boat this week. Getting the car a month early to be able to enjoy it in July would be amazing.

Was in the same situation last year - hoping to have it by July, and took delivery end of Oct instead. Hopefully that doesn't happen to you... even after it left Emden and got to the US port, there was another hold for some part before they released it to the dealer.
