Could that mean that they are all PTS+? I do find that hard to believe it's that many though?
Does anyone have a PTS car with assigned VIN in a color other than what I listed above?
@Spyder718 wow, thanks for the early data pull!

These complete builds? VIN assigned or what?

200 in the bank for NA and we haven’t hit the big allocation months through the rest of MY.

I was thinking 600 NA allocations in the first drop, this looks accurate.

Too many RY builds…

It's build slots with assigned VIN. So I'd assume cars that are either in production, complete or starting production very soon.

Ahh, so it definitely does not include mine. Thanks for all the great info.

Thanks for this - very fun data. However, it doesn't seem to include mine either which started production Jan 23 (Underberg green).. Also noticed when I checked my TYD today that my production completion date got bumped back a couple weeks

Appreciate the data point. It's easy for me to see if a a car is PTS or not. It's very tricky to get the actual color name.
I figured some confirmed PTS color names are better than none. As of today I'm already missing the PTS color name for >50 cars.
If your VIN ends with a number lower than 246 it's on my list.

It’s amazing you could even get this much data! My VIN is well under 246 so I guess I am accounted for. Thanks again for putting this together.

Adding a data point for SRS production schedule

For my particular SRS (Non-WP, Euro Delivery), my TYD production completion date was suppose to be 2/14... it's now 2/16 with no update. Thought it would update with either completed or a date change being Friday and all, but nothing.

Going to check with my dealer to see if they show any update in their system. IIRC, with my last 718 Spyder toward the end there was more misalignment between TYD and the dealer system. 🤷🏻‍♂️

Another update... Dealer system shows a 3 week delay... new completion date is 3/8. That only leaves 3.5 weeks for my scheduled European Delivery date of 4/1. Which based off others will mean my date will be rescheduled?

So far so good. Manufacturing started 2 days late (2/14 instead of 2/12) but shipping/delivery dates have not changed. Maybe I am too early on manufacture process still.

My GT4RS has been delayed for 6 weeks now (supposed to be done initially in early January and now Feb 26th (seems to move back a day or two, every day I check). It is PTS and ED is scheduled for late April, so I am not yet panicking

Bummer. Wow.

Is yours Paint to Sample?

I’m wondering if they are pushing the non-PTS cars out of the way to crank out a few PTS cars during this time for non-Euro delivery. Mine is PTS and hasn’t moved; my production date starts Feb 18 — we’ll see what happens.
