Manual. But that does not matter here. 'RS are all PDK and are in the same situation.

Mine was on the Goodwood too. My understanding is it is not delayed. I guess we will see.

We will see if it is going to be delayed too.
My buddy's car that arrived at JAX the same day made it to dealer 5 miles from port yesterday. No confirmation on whether he will be able to pickup.

Well that rules out the transmission as the potential cause given your manual car is delayed.

There's a bunch of us Smokies that are affected by this and I may just have to bring my Macan to Smokies spring!
Putting aside the initial disappointment, the stop/port hold actually is a responsible thing for PAG to do. IMO,they found out about an issue and they are handling the situation like they should and I think are being as transparent and honest as they can.

In the overall scheme of things, it's all good my friends.

If this is quality control, why can't cars be transported to dealers, for immediate fix? What good is sitting in port?

I believe they learned from that situation.
