The sense of entitlement is strong in this thread.

I hate reading about US politics on this board - especially from Canadians.!! LOL!

My 911 was completed on July 7th and is still sitting in Emden still. Wish it would at least board the boat! Keeping my firngers crossed for this week.

Is this forum's moderator on an extended holiday. Never would get away with this political BS on 6speed. GT3Chuck would have none of it.

Just spoke to my dealership, my 2018 Macan S is being held in the Port of Houston. He says Porsche corporate hasn't released any information to them about this situation, and he says that is probably good news, as if it was going to be a long delay, they would pretty much have to. He is emailing the regional manager, and I'll report back if i hear anything from that guy.

Last Friday, my dealer told me that he'd heard EPA had given its approval. There remained an issue with certain states but he expected that would be resolved quickly.

Uninformed? The US is committed to improving - we just don't want to fund the rest of the world on our dime. The rest of the world isn't sad that we pulled out. They're sad we're not going to keep giving out free money.

silly canadians.

I agree with R_Rated on this one. Main polluters such as China and India are given way into the 2020s to comply. On the other hand, the US is expected to pay Indonesia for not burning their forrest. Shouldn't they not be burning their forrest anyway?

If Canadians and Europeans are so concerned, please pay more for your pollution. I heard the air is quite nice in Paris and London

Not all of us are silly and I'm in total agreement with you. God bless America!

I stand with @R_Rated. But as others have said, would rather see everyone keep this thread to the issue at hand, which is WHEN WILL MY PORSCHE BE ONE ITS WAY HOME!!!!!!!!!

Hey! With all the money we save on carbon credits, we can afford to not de-fund Medicaid! Right?

Waiting on my first Porsche. Delivery was supposed to be August 25th. Moved up to August 4th. Landed in Davisville yesterday. This is awful.

Same thing happened to my friend last year on his benz. First round of 2017s and held up 4 weeks by EPA.

Just got notification,

"All 911s and Panameras are EPA-certified (except for the Hybrids). No Boxster/Cayman and no SUVs are certified yet."
