Sadly I received today the news (two mails) notifying me that do to the Ukraine situation porsche Leipzig factory has Shortage of supplies; so the will be shutting down staring today.
Information send by Porsche Latin America,
My GT3 production set for the end of March will be reschedule for June
My CP 8 date just shifted from 3/4 to 3/25. Who knows how the stop production notice applies. Dang Russians suck…..
Putin messin with my GT3 is just way wrong
How terrible your GT sports car is delayed and let's complain about Putin delaying bunch of completely unnecessary Porsches when there are kids dying there. I wonder if any of you have lived through that for 24 hours if you have ever complained about the $200,000 "PTS" being delayed.
I would give up my to be build Porsche in a heart beat to exchange my happiness to the wellbeing of those people who are suffering through this. I think we need to take it down a notch here with complaining. My car was lost in Felicity Ace (and I have been waiting for 8 months) and it appears that I won't get a car for at least another 6 months but for some reason I worry more about kindergartens being bombed than my stupid luxury car.
Article says the Zuffenhausem plant will stay open. BMW also affected however their plants in China, US, and Mexico aren’t affected by the wire harness shortage.
"Dear Customer, as the terrible news and pictures continue to reach us from Ukraine, we are appalled and deeply saddened by the situation. Our immediate concern is first and foremost for the people of Ukraine, our colleagues on the ground and peace as a whole.
The situation may mean the ordering and delivery of your car is delayed as a result of the supply chain being interrupted.
We kindly ask for your understanding and for you to keep in touch with your dealership who will do their best to keep you updated every step of the way as we work as a priority to address this situation."
My PTS GT3 is still scheduled to be delivered in August. Nothing has changed for me in terms of my delivery date. So far lol
Can't rely on TYD esp for PTS
Heard from my dealer that my July PTS build (slipped from April originally) is now delayed due to Ukraine and supply chain, sun spots, ships sinking who knows what else.
Effing crazy world, and this has by far been the most surreal car experience of my lifetime.

I’m sure a soybean shortage will impact all wiring one day, soon.
To be clear though, the shutdown in Leipzig is for one week according to the article the OP posted. And GT3s are not made in Leipzig anyway. They are all made in Zuffenhasuen.
