Makes sense. We are green 2D8 twins. If you looked at my earlier post I went from April to May and now July USA delivery. So production I assumed would be May or early June. Which seems the same time as your ED.

When do you pay? I've ordered a car, don't know when I'm getting it, don't know when I'm paying for it.

it might be different for each dealer, but I was asked to pay for mine when they got invoiced by PAG/PCNA for the car. This was around the time my build hit V300 meaning the car had finished production EDIT - forgot I was doing euro delivery which is why I had to pay upfront!!

I see you're doing ED. That's different then picking up a car at the dealer. If you do an ED you have to pay for the car in advance, otherwise you just pay for the car when you pick it up at the dealer.

My car is stuck at V260 for 3 weeks now. Has anyone seen theirs progress in the last week. Mine is not PTS but the SBM, do you think Porsche having discontinued it can be a reason other than the strike.

i am petty sure that's not legal.
they do not own the car yet. they cannot sell it.
ask them for an image of MSO.
i wont pay until i see the car on their lot.
they are a dealer, they are a business. they have LOC. they pay interest to bank, they have operating costs and they make profits. they can float banks' money not MY MONEY, that's what banks are for. they let you float their money with a fee, aka interest.
you been cheated.
this is how us finance guys fk with you.

ED definitely adds a kink in the process, but as others have mentioned for US deliveries for me it has always been upon physical arrival at the dealer.

As far as ED, did you have to put 20% as escrow atop the purchase price? I've done ED before but not through Porsche, seems that is something unique to the brand (it is to ensure if the car does not return to the US German VAT is payable).

I still cannot get over how Porsche ****ed over its customers on PTS. And even more irritated about how it was handled.

Rotten customer service, a big middle finger to some of its very best customers...
