Hello all - question for the wise folks on the forum. I locked an order on MY 2013 C2S coupe a few weeks ago with an expected build completion date of May 10th. The dealer tells me that the Porsche dealer software shows a 6 week delay between build completion and arrival at the port in the U.S. (Rhode Island in my case), followed by another week until arrival at the dealer in N.J. In my case, arrival at the port is estimated between June 14 and June 21, and arrival at the dealer is estimated by June 28. The dealer also said that based on his experience and my build date of May 10, he anticipates that my car may get here earlier. I'd appreciate if anyone in the Northeast who has ordered a car recently can tell me the time between build completion and arrival at the dealer. The wait is unbearable as it is, and I'm hoping my car surprises me in the middle of June.

My specs:

911 C2S coupe
White
Black standard interior
Premium Package plus
14-way power sports seats

Thanks!

Just wanted to provide an update. My car came in yesterday, several weeks ahead of schedule. I had it delivered last night. In a word, it's awsome. What a beast. Just so tight, a world of difference (in a good way) between the Carrera and my M3. I've attached some iPhone pics.

 

Very sweet ride, congrats! Just curious, I too ordered from a NJ dealer but not Paul Miller... Your original post was 5/2 and you say you had only ordered a few weeks earlier... On what date did you sign the deal? I ordered mine in March and I still haven't taken delivery... Thx

 

Thanks so much! I ordered my car from Paul Miller on 4/19 after confirming that they had an allocation for a May build. I then altered the offer on 4/20 to add the sports exhaust (so happy I did). Car had completed production by 5/9, was on a vessel the following week and reached Davisville, Rhode Island on Memorial Day. I got the car one week after that. Hope your car comes soon! Did you have a May build slot? It is worth the wait, in any case. The car is beyond awesome.

 

2013 I'm assuming?

 

Very interesting, I too am waiting for a car that is coming thru Providence. It looks like my build was running about a week behind yours. I hope this means my car will be here soon too. Here's the latest I have from the dealer:

 

Yes, 2013. I'm leasing so I wanted to make sure I locked in the incredible lease/ conquest program which is good through July 1. It may be extended, but I didn't want to take the risk, as losing out on the 72% residual for a C2S 7MT for 27 months and instead getting the approx. 60% residual on a 36 month term would have meant monthly payments of $200+ more. So it was imperative for me to find a dealer with a May build slot to get the last of the 2013's.
