Can't believe I haven't checked into this thread earlier. Great work on the registry, montoya.
Congratulations to Jochen on the Signal Yellow as well. Must be one of the first deliveries.

OK, not sure why, but OK.

But if true, a sea change in the workings

Quite a few of us are still waiting, and there is no order to things at all. Early allocations are still waiting while second round allocations are getting their cars before ours even go into production due to the PTS delay and reschedule. A delay that only seemed to hit those of us who put their names on lists years ago to get a first round allocation... yes, let's see how this all works out.

And then there is this, let's hope it's not a trend. V110 means your order is waiting for text handling by the importer- PCNA, and PAG is waiting for a response. I would not let your order sit in this status for more than a few days without understanding what is going on.

I requested PTS last Friday and it went from V170 to V110 (February build). Switched color this Monday and found out production date was moved to April, still V110. Not sure if build date change is due to simply requesting PTS (on Friday) or due to color change (on Monday). But I won’t change anything from here on out. I hope it arrives in May...

V110- imp text handling- imp is PCNA- PAG is waiting for them. I don't know what's going on, but I don't like it.

I believe they may just need a few days to update the order... I was told that as long as color is on the approved list, everything’s good. We’ll see next week.

Did any of these orders go from V215 to V110, or were they all V180 prior to this latest change?
Back in June or so one of the higher ups at my dealership said Porsche was wanting to push PTS more going forward and didn’t seem concerned about my request. This latest “everyone will be approved” seems consistent with that.

I'm not aware of any V215 orders staying at V110 after changing. But some V170/180 orders have gone to V110 for no apparent reason. Those are the ones that have me concerned.
Updated again for small corrections- Jamie in the House!
So I took an nice road trip to the Netherlands to see the Vipergreen GT3. As we all know, color on a car looks different than on small little frogs. Could not wait, woke up early and here we go:
I specced my Touring yesterday at Porsche Exclusive Manufaktur in Stuttgart in Vipergreen with several CXX options as pepita inserts, piping on full buckets in Viper and some other goodies. Production is March 2018, couldnt be happier.

The standard color options don’t appeal to everyone.
Right - and with the new PTS option price being nearly 10% the cost of the car, I am guessing Porsche has very little incentive to broaden the standard palette’s appeal

The standard GT colors sucked long before the PTS price increase. At least the consumer has the option to get the color they want.
