Default 991.2 gt3rs commission number with mag wheels

Anyone have a commission number with weissach and magnesium wheels yet? I submitted my build and said please add magnesium wheels since not available on configurator. They said I can’t get a commission number yet because of this reason. But am supposedly still guaranteed a car. Delivery for magnesium wheels was stated as February 2019. Anyone get anything different from their dealer?

I am choosing to spec WP and then buy Mag wheels through the dealer later when available if possible. I have also heard that Feb 2019 date availability from my dealer.

I heard that there was a stop-order on all 991.2 GT3 RS in the EU until September (or after the August summer break).

Anyone heard the same? or different?

Sorry, that's what I meant (thought it might have been obvious given the title to the thread)

Any idea as to why?

Even if you have a commission number, you are not guaranteed an allocation. Commission numbers are also generated when the dealer inputs a v070 order demand, and, as discussed numerous times, v070 status does not get you any closer to a real allocation.

If you have a commission number coupled with a status of v100 or higher, then you know you have been assigned one of the dealer’s real, true allocations.

I have posted elsewhere what all the status codes stand for.

Circling back to the original question, it is currently impossible to order magnesium wheels on the GT3RS; in other words, there will be no commission numbers in any vXXX status with magnesium wheels currently on a build sheet.

Hope this helps to clarify.

According to Porsche, they are responsible for 80% of all magnesium supplies for wheels. Most cars are delivered without the magnesium wheels and shipped to the owner at a later date. Also the factory is so busy at the moment that they are running three shifts instead of the usual two.

My .2WP Leipzig delivery was at first scheduled for June 30th, but due to personal reason I asked to postpone it in late sept.
So guessing some mid June delivery shouldn't be such a long shot

Mag wheels cannot be on a comm# quite yet. They are not available in production until 2019.
