Kind of a bummer for someone who was expecting a very early car.

Track Your Dream has still not updated, but I just confirmed this with the Dealer.

Paint-to-Sample, Extended Deviated Stitching, Wheels in Black with Outer Lip in Racing Yellow, 18-Way Seats, as well as basically every option on the configurator.
So I misspoke on this because the person at the dealer (not my sales agent) was giving me “planned” dates and not “expected” dates. My car had NOT moved 2-2.5 weeks.

All right — as of today, my production began on Feb 20. The metal shell is in the body shop. This is 2 days after it was supposed to start (last week and the week before it was starting Feb 18). US dealer delivery is April 19 as opposed to April 15 originally, from which it moved once to April 17.

Make sure your contact at the dealer is providing you the same category of dates and not moving between expected and planned every time you speak. Go with the expected date.

No need. My sales guy is an ace… guy is as nerd as can be with all of this which is great… the sales manager fumbled it, and I wasn’t aware of these variables.

Yours didn’t revert back, right?

I'm checking with my SM tomorrow... so far not looking good. I reached out to PNCA Euro Delivery team for an update and haven't received any news yet. Thinking it might get cancelled. The window between is just too narrow.

Does either set of dates match up with TYD? I would hope the expected dates match TYD (which is telling me I started production the 19th, I haven't reached out to the dealership yet).

All PSVMS Planned dates occur on a Friday. My TYD dates track to individual other days during the week -- so TYD and PSVMS in agreement to within a couple days.

What is your allocation (build date) date?

Post it up as we try to figure out the cut-off dates.

My RY build that starting early April is GTG.

The production date on dealer’s system matches my track your dream; the dealer delivery date on track your dream is two days sooner than dealer’s system.

Interesting that Porsche will eliminate Racing Yellow, Shark Blue, and possibly Ruby Star Neo. I wonder if they’ll leave the color selection down to a ridiculously small selection and do nothing after these eliminations or if they’ll replace these colors with other non-PTS offerings.
