This would be the third year in a row; my missus might be staying home this time for a change of pace (for her).

My Spyder RS began production on 4/12, and was supposed to end on 5/3, but then that got pushed to 5/17, and TYD now shows 6/7 as the 'theoretical' completion date.

My ED isn't until the last week of August, but I'm still concerned that the production end date was already moved 3 times!

My Spyder RS is PTS, WP, PCCB, sofas, LED headlights, extended deviated stitching, but no mag wheels or CXX

Do any of those Spyder RS options shed any light on why my car has been delayed 3 times already??

I’d guess PTS. Mine has everything else. Started 4/22, finished 5/13 and on a boat 5/16.

Mine was supposed to start production 5/12 but didn’t actually start until 5/21, interestingly the delivery date of 7/3 hasn’t changed though.

no wp, no pts, just pccbs

Another update: Three days later, and the car is now at Emden.

Just google PWL schedule.

It’ll show the VAG owned stuff, but many are loaded on non-VAG ships.

you can get a free app and look at what docked at VAG docks and then look at ships typical ports.

Good luck, your SA can tell you also when the ship leaves port

I didn't have PTS or Extended deviated stitching. Did have PCCB LWBS & LED lights. No notable delays on my build.
