Yes I am wondering too. Guess next week I'll place order but might take time for Porsche to "kick it back" or will system tell us right away? Crazy that something so simple it a mystery!

I was told all along "don't worry, lets us worry, you'll get one". This is what I have been hearing for many months. To be honest I was starting to think it wasn't going to happen then approximately 3-4 weeks ago I was told we gotcha one but are waiting for allocation/assignment # from Porsche. It wasn't until yesterday that my dealership heard from Porsche rep. that allocation/assignment # will be in dealership system next week.

UV was to be discontinued after November but then this decision was reversed, possibly due to supplier issue or possibly after demand swelled as many existing allocations were switched to UV. For example, my Nov build was to be the only UV at my preferred dealership but at least 3 other pre Nov built allocations were switched.

When do expect delivery on your Nov build? Trying to gauge when mine will be.

Mine was an October build (late October). Took a little over two weeks in bodyshop (due to minor custom requests) then it went to shipping process around mid November. Sat in yard/port for almost four weeks and got on ship 4 days ago. Expecting the car by second week of Jan.
I saw some posts with people having their cars shipped almost immediately. So it's your luck.

Mind you I placed my order in April, and it was locked by July/August. I was affected by the seats delay hence the late build v.s. locked date.
You should expect the car within two months from the build date based on my experience. But more experienced RLers will be wiser than me in this.

Thanks! However long it takes will seem forever! One thing though it's cold in PA this time of year so no lost "seat time".

When was your "lock date?" Generally speaking how long does an order take to "lock date?"
