mine went into production a week after the app stated.
And now my car isn’t even showing in app. Dealer says all on track.
sometimes I think it better to not have access to this pre delivery info…

Just took delivery today! The car is amazing as described/expected and Underberg green looks spectacular. While babying it the ride is actually surprisingly quiet - I don't think it is much louder than what my 718 Spyder was. There seems to be a large difference in character of exhaust note with PSE on or off, much more than in my previous Porsches. With it off it seems quite high and raspy (not in an unpleasant way), while with it on it becomes a different animal with deep grumble ranging to roar plus all sorts of noises I've never heard before. Haven't pushed it but what little I have tells me there is a world of anger hiding beneath. Can't wait for break-in to be over. Overall very pleased!
Congrats! You need to change your Avatar to that picture....
I know exactly what you mean. I am 400km away from:
Release the Hounds!
Oh what painful joy.
P.S. Your car looks fantastic.👍
You got up to 1100 already! Good job - I'm at 150 haha. Eventually will get there.... can't wait!

I hope to see you driving around some day!
Yes! Will change the Avatar now. Trying to get out as much as I can so I can also release the hounds especially since the weather is better (other than our winter morning today)..
Mine started production as scheduled on 4/22, with a scheduled completion date of 5/14. VIN is 414.
Strangely, the day it started production it disappeared from the iOS app on my phone. Up until then, it was listed as one of my cars. On the My Porsche website, it is still there with all the TYD detail. What's odd is that the text says all 718s are made in Zuffenhausen, on the same line as the 911s. The TYD map, however, starts in Osnabruck where the cars are in fact built.

Same happened to me, it was not showing up in the app and I was just be able to see in on desktop, but then it re-appeared on the app after a few days
If your VIN contains a K then it is built in Osna, Porsche didn't even bothered to update that on TYD
Mine definitely has the K and, as I said, on the map, the "journey" starts in Osna, not Zuff. I've heard all the Spyder RS's are being made in Osna. My GT4RS, a Sept 2023 build was made in Zuff. But have the GT4RS's been moved to Osna as well.

Got the call today - status moved to local port exit, en route to dealer.
Car will arrive at the dealer tomorrow.
And I’m on a plane to Vegas as we speak for my previously scheduled vacation. Oh well, the Spyder RS will have to wait. Delivery to me tentatively set for May 6.
I think a bunch of us are knocking on the door to delivery, no?
@n4v4nod What’s the latest? Last you mentioned was that the vessel was sitting out there like a turd off the coast of CA.

Ship arrived a day ago... still waiting for it to clear customs. Majority of the ship was destined for Benicia... so might be waiting for a bit of time.
