Me too. So it's effectively in limbo right now. Sounds like the word has gone out to some dealers, but not all. Porsche is denying any MY changes at this point. Hopefully they will come clean at the next announcement 3/31?

So, I'll put some pressure on my guy Monday to get some answer.
Have you changed your build to 2015 config. yet?
No , don't know if its now v170 ( whatever that means, probably on hold)
He wasn't sure if I would be getting a new Commission #
Wasn't sure about options on the build
Yes Florida dealer and he's been with them along time
Straight up guy , he wouldn't be at home recouping from a bug sick
and at the end of the day: Hmm I think I'll call Deacon and tell him his 3 is now a 15 and make up some BS story ,
These guys know we are on the same Team

No I don't think he would make that stuff up either. My info was showing V210 going to V260 last Wed. Then it went to "V170 PAG Handling Necessary". Commission number only, No VIN. I suspect that means awaiting changeover to 2015 and then a May build? Hopefully before huracan's deposit of 2 weeks ago. (sorry hurican). I deposited my build on 2/7/13. It seems like the Florida people all got notified.
