I asked my sales rep yesterday about possible delays and had him check my order status. He sent me this:

All of these dates are the same except for the one in bold which is new and indicates that a delivery date was determined just last week. My rep continues to think the car is on schedule and that given the time span between production and delivery shown above that the car may actually be here earlier. We'll see....

My dealer also said that it may show up a little more quickly based on his recent experiences with estimated transit times.

^ The last three 911s I ordered arrived at the dealer one-two weeks before the estimated delivery times presented to me. Have you guys found this to be true as well?

Nick

I don't know what to think about the delay others are experiencing. I checked with my dealer today and nothing has changed. Build date 12/13/13 with deliver 2/13/14.

Mike in CA

My 911's were all tourist delivery so timing wasn't an issue and my Cayenne was held at port with a software upgrade issue so that's not really representative. But my sales guy told me recently that some cars have been coming early including a Cayman S which IIRC turned up almost a month before it was scheduled to arrive.

This order with front axil lifter or not?

Mike in CA

Mine has axle lift....

I was talking to Porsche of Down Town LA an they said none of their 3s were being delayed.

Just contacted my dealer for an update.

Glad to confirm the car is under production. Delivery last week of November.

I'm also pushed back a week (US).

Hello everyone..new to the forum. I have one on order and learned today that it is delayed because of supplier shortages. It seems as though dealers received a memo today!

SamFromTX

Just got an email today from my salesperson, told of unspecified delays due to supply shortage. He wanted to give me the heads up this time since I usually hear of delays on the forum first.

Allan, congrats....what color did you chose ?
