Btw ,here in Quebec, I inquired about carbon rear air intakes and PAG replied there are no special options available in Canada,...are these avail in USA?
Also asked for painted callipers light green 253, same as 918 but no go :-(
Two weeks ago I requested full deviated stitching; the new build sheet with all changes was recently generated and my status reverted from V180 to V110.
PCNA indicated that my build date still indicates April but the date won't be finalized for another 2-3 weeks. They explained that all PTS orders are currently being reviewed in their order sequence - not certain if that's 1) allocation date sequence, 2) tentative build date sequence or 3) the sequence in which ZPT / PTS orders were received. In any case it appears that we should have clarity on build dates soon, as others have reported.
Andre - for the dataset, my dealer location is Texas and I'm taking local delivery.

Congrats. What car color / stitching color are you going with??

Interesting! I'm sure the order sequence is the date the commission is given, that would put all the VIP's first with others behind based on how early they were given their commission. First sign that there may be oversubscription? Still optimistic that's not the case, too many here have later dates now through this ZPT process for Porsche NA to be chancing it. But, in cases where there is tight timing this may mean that your color choice is not available due to lead time or planning reasons.. meaning that they get started on the earliest orders first, so if there is a hiccup there is time to recover, later orders maybe not.
Thanks for the update on dealer location! I've updated the database.
As of Yesterday my build is March 2018. Might move around due to CXX finalization. PCNA will be talking to Germany about it on Monday so might get a better picture then.
I was also told no carbon mirrors with PTS, but maybe it can be changed.

Eduardo, everyone on the list is getting their order, try to be happy about it! LOL!!!
EDIT: How about a friendly wager? Terms of the bet are 90% of the people on the list get their PTS (allowing for some weird selections, impossible combos to drop out). Loser buys the winner their favorite bottle of wine (I've seen just a part of your wine selection, wow! This could hurt me more than you since I have simple tastes!). What do you say?

Reason: add PDK

Still optimistic that's not the case...

I am happy...if it comes about! My 'confused'
was related that it's the first time I have ever
seen you tell the readers of your fine thread
that there might be just the slightest possibility
that not everyone might get a PTS chicken in
every pot at the end of the process! And if you
recall history, Hoover in 1928 also promised a
car in every garage! So your are Rennlist's
new Herbert!

We are now up to a 10% PTS possible rejection
rate. It reminds me of weather forecasts in
England: Wait a minute and it will all change!
In a nutshell, here is my problem with PTS
'Open Borders' where everyone can come in
& get one. It's not the Porsche I know! If on
the just recently completed limited edition 911R
run (where EVERY SINGLE ONE of their 991
customers was either a 918 VIP, a Captain of
Industry, European royalty or a Piëch and/or
a C.J. Wilson), PAG only allocated 50 to 100
slots for PTS! Why would now every Tom, Dick
& Harry that is requesting PTS in a mundane
.2 991 gt3 be so 'special' as to merit this
otherwise hard-to-get option & simply on
demand? True, a leopard might change it's
spots in evolutionary 'time'. But will PAG
totally change its opaque & restrictive PTS
program in the space of 12 months? Color
me 'doubtful'. But if there is now a historic
shift in PTS policy that makes it available
to all, I am all for it!

I am also a man of simple tastes. So let's make
our wager a box of the 'Picpoul' from that wine
Juggernaut region in France - the Languedoc!
And don't forget to keep the beers I won in our
last wager nice & cold for me. I arrive in Portland
on Tuesday, August 29th to pick up my '17 .2 991
S Coupe...and drink some delicious beer!

Confirmed no carbon mirrors as that requires the bottom of the mirror to be painted body color which fkucks with their PTS paint order. Similar to when you ask for painted interior in PTS color.. it goes from free to $Xxxx.
