Got the call, PTS Touring allocation accepted by Porsche.
Monday I got a message form my dealer PTS Touring allocation accepted and tentatively scheduled to be completed 11.9.18!
I first acquired a PtS car in '09, my '06 Maritime Blue Carrera. I loved that car but for several years I have felt it's under powered and especially on a trip over the Cherohala Parkway.
Several items transpired at work and 15 months ago I decided to go for it. (I saw the 991.2 GT3 launch in Geneva but at that point was not in a position to even think about it.)
Talk of the Touring, with rear seats, got me really interested. As it transpired that rear seats never came to be but by then I'd made up my mind, the girls are getting too big anyway.
I've had a long standing relationship with a local sales guy and he got me on the list - this being my first new Porsche.
Many ups and down, PtS in, PtS out, and finally I got a call April 17 that I had an allocation but by then PtS was out
I toyed with Chalk and had a build set to go but never 100% OK with spending north of $100k for a car that wasn't unique.
Finally late June I went to see Daniel at ATLPEC and built a PtS touring exactly as I wanted.
I'm beyond pumped. I've now got to sell my PtS Carrera ( https://photos.app.goo.gl/NVmypPZFeNqtTkoW2 ) and need to plan a November Euro delivery.

Congrats, sounds like they might be trickling out.
Mine is currently locked by Porsche for a PTS request of Viola Metallic - which means there is hopefully some good news coming

Congrats!
Quite a few of us are in a similar position based on the PTS Update thread and Montoya’s PTS check in thread so I am greatly looking forward to seeing pictures of all the PTS builds in the fourth quarter.

I was told by my NC dealer; "accepted and tentatively scheduled to be completed 11.9.18" Not sure if that is Oct or Nov production? It did lock June 25 BTW and the entire build including PtS was confirmed exactly one week later.
I will confirm prod.code for RL education.

Nothing yet, should know here in the coming days (as the allocation locks) - still holding my breath, but turning blue here with the wait!

Should have another one for the list (GT3T), just waiting on the official call. Was told a couple of weeks ago to make sure everything was entered correctly because it would lock. Rep told SA not to worry, all was good. Waiting on it to flip to V200+.
Hopefully it will work out but realize nothing is ever set in stone......

I at V215 now, so looks like I'm a Go on my PTS Touring, 11/9/18 with Euro Delivery.
PS sold my '06 coupe on the weekend too for 50% of MSRP.
