Default Who is still waiting for their 2014s to arrive? Undelivered 2014s Please Check In

I expect my 2014 right around Halloween, and am wondering how many others are still without their 2014s. Last 3 digits of my VIN are 669, so am I the last 2014 produced?

Can you also include your expected delivery date?

What was your original build complete date? Mine was March 15 and I got my car last week.

My original build complete date was March 20, and I received the engine swap on Sept 16. My car then sat at Emden for 3 weeks waiting for a ship.

I hate to be the messenger, but your timing makes me think you may be at the tail end of the 2014s. My original build complete date was the very next day, March 21 (it was to enter the paint shop on March 14 FWIW), but I got bumped to 2015. So we may be on either side of the cut point.

On the other hand, there may not always be much rhyme or reason to the sequence of production, as my car could then theoretically have been one of the first 2015s produced; as it turns out, I will now only get my car in February, which sounds like perhaps one of the last 2015s to be produced, including new (non-bumped) 2015 allocations!

I hope you see your car soon and that you still find it's worth the wait!

I'm still waiting. VIN ends in 605. My original delivery date at dealer was to be May 16'th (Los Angeles.) My car completed production on 9/2, and was at the port in Emden by 9/9. It finally got on a ship (Virgo Leader) to arrive in San Diego 10/21. Sure doesn't seem like they were loading the 2014's before the 2015's, or giving us any priority. My new delivery date is showing as 10/31. The ONLY GOOD NEWS THERE...is that 10/30 is my birthday.

Oh, but they did! I sat at Emden for 3 1/2 weeks waiting for all the 2014s to ship.
And I heard they will hold us at Port until all 2014s are delivered.
So thank god, they did do that for you guys. And they should have.
You guys suffered the worst.
And what a birthday present! Very cool!

The 2015 is NOT at Beverly Hills Porsche (my dealer....). It was advertised 'for sale' via an email blast which was posted on another thread here. It will not arrive until November.
