Latest update is on the first post. Dr. Bill's order is listed as open.
I will answer for Dr. Bill, he didn't get his earlier production allocation when dropping PTS- it is not the same as his PTS slot, it is earlier, but still later than he originally had.
This is in line with our thoughts on the process so far. If you are at V180, your allocation has been moved. Your original allocation was opened for the next available customer, and if you drop your PTS order like Dr. Bill, it stays there unless they can find an earlier open allocation for you.
Thus, in this latest update I have highlighted in Yellow those of you who have not shared with me your production month. Please give us this information if you can, it is truly appreciated! Those of you highlighted in Green have given us your original allocation date before V180 status- so an update here will be appreciated as well.
Thanks again for those of you sending me updates. We've helped quite a few people behind the scenes here, so the information we are all sharing is being put to good use!

You are quite right Andre. It's what I was informed of by my dealer/PCNA area rep when the issue of the price increase and timescales came up a couple of weeks ago. Its also one of the reasons I had then to decide quickly whether to drop PTS or not. There is a queuing system even after you drop PTS.

Hey Andre. Since Dr. Bill's PTS slot is open now, whoever gets it can change it to whatever color they want correct?
It's not open. Also, I believe that once a color is approved, the order can be changed with the exception of the color. From what I understand (and I may very well be wrong) if you attempt to change the color, it could kick it out of PTS altogether. I doubt that even the cleaning lady knows for sure.
My understanding is regular options can be changed, it just takes extra work to do so (PAG has to unlock the build at request of the dealer, let dealer change it, then re-lock it through the V110/V180 sequence and park it again).
Color can also be changed with similar work, though it is more risky to do so.

JPMD has carbon scoops listed on his order info that Montoya has accumulated. I would be interested in that option. I have factory Technique carbon scoops on my '07RS.
Just a CXX request
I'll see if I can get an update on my build, status of PTH and CXX request. I specd the carbon mirrors in hope of getting the scoops in carbon.

It's really not open! I guess I'm going to keep your name on it for now.
Let's just say that good things come to those that wait!

Thx JPMD,
I will do the same as you suggested if the air scoops become available in CF.
Otherwise I will contact the usual aftermarket sources I have used in the past-Getty Design, MA Shaw, etc.
GL, please keep us informed.
According to Porsche Exclusive, several have asked for carbon scoops and have been turned down. Also, even though my PTS color has been approved, I was given the opportunity to change it do a different PTS color.
