Hopefully this is not about potential Tariffs. I could be stoned for even thinking it.

my car (w/ wp) was also on the Lake Kivu, which docked on 12/10 (Davisville). Moved to NA10 (PDI in) on 12/11. Hoping to be at NA19 today or tomorrow.

Just sent my dealer a text on 3RS. Last I heard it was scheduled to arrive the end Jan. At this point my attitude is, what's another couple months. Without some drama it wouldn't be a full GT experience.

I should stop buying antique air-cooled cars.
by the time my water-cooled RS arrives, they will be stale antiques.

System is showing my car won't be delivered until 4/5. My car is on the Heritage Leader which hits JAX in two days

It will be interesting to see if this applies to all incoming NA 3RS until 4/5 and if NA 2RS and GT3 are also affected. What a total disappointment to have our cars sit a couple hours away from us for several months and not even be given an explanation. Hopefully this changes for the better soon but I won’t hold my breath with PAG.

Is this just for 3RS's? Does anyone have a 2RS being held up?

Just heard that it is a undisclosed quality control issue. Only 3RS.

That could potentially be part of the problem but some of the cars being held don’t even have WP.

Don't want to get ahead of myself, but maybe this could be related to the paint issue thread that was started a few weeks back? Maybe the system is showing 4/5 because they're shipping a completely new car?
