Certainly not what the folks who have had their cars snatched or those sitting at port or dealers. Just don't know anything and PCNA won't say anything. I guess it's safe to say I will most likely get a car this year sometime. But I won't know what 'MY' it will be for a while yet. Hopefully something will be said in 3 weeks or less for us bastard step-children.

I'm a middle child. Mine is sitting on the factory floor, cold and engineless. I'll keep my demands low like that other thread:

1. A 911 loaner
2. A years supply of bratwurst
3. Monthly keg deliveries from Spaten
4. I want that castle from Chitty Chitty Bang Bang.

Only comment I would like to add is that I am hoping to see a little better compensation for the people who actually paid for their cars and especially the ones who paid for it in cash. You have a situation where people have invested +$150K and no longer have access to this cash, versus the people who are waiting for their cars and are still having most of this cash available to them and can elect to leave it in the bank to earn interest or invest it and hopefully get a good return. There should be some additional compensation for lost opportunity to invest this money. Even the IRS pays you interest when your refund is sitting in their bank account! Not sure if others feel the same way. Mark

That is really interesting. The dealer I'm working is definitely less transparent. I also have a build that was supposed to start mid march and complete by early April. The only update I've received as of 48 hours ago was that my delivery date of may 16 (which was already pushed back from may 9) is now may 23. It would be great to have other posts their expected delivery dates prior to the stop sale and what notices they are receiving. Some of us either have really poor dealers who are not communicating or there is some cut off in this switching of model years that is right around now. Jeff

I got it from the dealer. I was V260 as of 3/17 and then it went dark. I then moved to "V170 PAG Handling Necessary". I have a commission number too. My dealer tried calling the scheduler in Atlanta, but he's on vacation until 3/31. I suspect they will at sometime tell me my build is now 2015. But I can't get confirmation on that yet. It's frustrating to say the least.

My update was on his system showing "V170 PAG handling Necessary".
That was a change from the day before where I was listed as V260. I can't get anything else out of them. He doesn't know what this means. When he emailed the regional VP in Atlanta, the VP said no decision has been made on changing MY2014 to MY2015 yet. Which is weird considering many have posted that they got a call stating the opposite. UGH. It's like, "We have not invaded Crimea!" But I see Russian troops in there!

Sorry, couldn't resist.

I honestly think the Porsche status system is all F'd up. Mine still shows delivery of 5/30. The only way that can happen is if it completes on 3/28. Doubtful.

I doubt that. I have an identical build and delivery date as yours; my car now has a VIN and is a 2014 model.

My car has had a Vin since 2/14 and still has not moved from 2/14. Dealer says system still shows it as a 2014 with delivery on 4/2 ( It was one month ahead of planned production at 2/14)

I will inform PNA on Monday that depending on when my car arrives and if 2015's are coming in within a month of receipt of my car I will reject it and ask for a 2015. I know it will have the "new engine" but why accept an end of production year car when it was to come in April?
