Anyone getting this? Will it fix itself?

We apologize, but the order number you have entered is currently not supported in Track Your Dream.

Schedule steady since 3 Nov.
I just recently (last few days) had a VIN show up and it's still on step 2. Step 3 (production start) is showing as Apr. 4 for me. Hopefully that means it's already scheduled and it just hasn't updated on the order page.

Not sure why, but I’m on different stages. Production start is Stage 4 for me…

I see your profile says Canada…guess the CA TYD is different. Strange.

Regardless our cars are close, I’m projected complete on 1 May.

Maybe we’ll be shipmates!

Mine didn't move either since December allocation until end of production on 2/22, at that point the party got started

TYD didn’t show for a month or sonafter I entered my build. I believe it was due to PTS approval…

The last few threads have been mildly amusing, and would have been downright funny if it was not me, but it is me and…… I’m probably the only one here that WANTS my car to be delayed as long as possible so i can save up!! But my good old mate Murphy came to the rescue….so far every milestone of the car has been bang on the predicted dates……i can’t win!!!

If you give a date you can't commit to ..simply..don't give it. Even less move it X times in 20 days intervals
They absorb more than they can take and that is due to crappy logistics, which I was not expecting from Porsche

Maybe due to accommodating / low standards buyers is why brands end up doing whatever they want ....this is not a 5 eur book from Amazon ...it is a 200k eur car...and when you have a build slot and the car goes into production it must be accurate ....
It’s quite annoying and painful to witness your whining about not getting your luxury car at a given date. It’s not like it’s the end of the world by no means whenever you get your car. Mine was postponed like 3 months due to Ukraine and I couldn’t be bothered at all. Just got it in time to complete the run in, before putting it away for 22/23 winter. Porsche has to comply to all sorts of IRL events like transportation workers going on strike etc. and will do their best to get the cars shipped to it’s customers, so get a grip and do something positive instead of complaining on RL. People are being killed and made homeless all over the world each day so a car not being delivered at a specified date isn’t really ANYTHING to bitch about!

I can whine about whatever the **** I want....easy ...don't read it.
No transport problem in my case as it is EU..learn to read ...
​​​​
​​And again ..so you don't forget...I bitch about whatever and whenever I want...

Having done this a number of times, the dates in TYD are estimates and mostly fiction.

So true. I don't understand why Porsche keeps TYD. It's just upsetting customers.

I'd much rather have it than nothing at all. It relieves some pressure from your Sales Associate... the actual milestone achievements are accurate... it's just the future target dates move a lot without explanation, which creates frustration.
