Who knows - my car is delayed and it's non WP. It'll be interesting to see if GT3's get delayed as well. So far, only RS that we know of. Interestingly many Goodwood cars came in the other day have been released for transport AND delivery / sale. If this was a major issue, why would they stop the deliveries only for cars arriving on boats after the Goodwood. What boat a car rides on is an arbitrary factor. Smells like sales games to me.

that’s possible but apparently this is a 3RS specific issue, I would think a broader paint issue would affect other GT cars as we’ve seen in previous threads. Also it’s extremely unlikely they’re shipping new cars for everyone affected, that would be a very expensive nightmare for PAG, not to mention the logistics of such a scenario.

If this were a Netflix Original series, I think they just released season 2 four years after season 1.

I have a PTS 2RS with WP and 3 RS with WP that were one day apart on the production line incoming. Will be telling if the 2RS makes it out on time and if the 3RS is held.

I was just thinking about that yellow RS on fire and the reported oil leaks.

To add to the conspiracy, I haven't seen any new GT3RS's come out of production for the last few days and this is the first time I've seen zero cars since I started looking. There have been GT3's and 2RS's built this week.

Ugh... The evidence is mounting, but there's still hope we are all a bunch of wackos.

I just checked with my SA, and he says they received 2 GT3 RS's, a GT2RS, and 3 GT3's yesterday. This is in the Bay Area.

My gt3rs just got to the dealer. (Porsche of livermore) ^^^^^^^^^^

Last time there was a stop on 488 deliveries because of a safety recall. I don't believe they are allowed to deliver any cars to customers until an issue like this is fixed.

Still thinking it's a sales # game with the end of the year approaching... who knows what the game is. All I know is that it's not a very fun game.

Just spoke to PCNA, they didn’t say anything about a delay, confirmed my build completion date is now between 12-14 and 12-21 (has been 12-14 since June) and dealer delivery date of 2-22 to 3-1 (was 2-22). One week isn’t too bad I suppose, I’ll call back next week when my car should be completed.

one last peice of information. The last 3RS to complete production was 12-7, none this week which is very unusual.

talked to my SA in manhattan, he has an RS exiting davisville coming to him today and he has not heard of any issues. my GT3 which was on the HB is scheduled to also leave davisville today or tomorrow based on the info he has now.
