Porsche needs to get its **** together when it comes to supply chain issues. Either get your **** together, or tell your dealers to give deposits back to it's customers and still hold their place.

you can keep giving up your leverage as a buyer and drinking that Porsche kool aid tho.

I empathize with the Ukrainian people and this worldwide crisis and my comments are more directed at the supply chain issues that have existed well before this past week and for the last couple of years. Porsche, and others, need to get it together and figure out how to work around these constraints.

This will result in prices to rise significantly with more of us that already have one to flip. I just hope that those that do flip will give a meaningful portion of any profit to the heroic Ukrainian people.

I'm going to wait a couple weeks and get updated PVMS info on both my builds. Very curious. One was to be a June euro delivery.

That sounds like the exact opposite of what the Porsche bulletin is saying?

Wasnt trying to be rude, just can’t understand what the bulletin would possibly mean if there isn’t a delay. Very odd.

When that memo says 718.. does that mean GT4RS is also affected? or is it produced elsewhere?

I think all sports cars are produced in Zuffenhausen and all 4-doors are produced in Leipzig (maybe Taycan in Zuffenhausen too).

No offense taken, I think things are pretty fluid so I'd be surprised if delays don't crop up moving forward.

I contacted my SA today and he said they’ve seen no document of the sort.
