A few posters on Reddit mentioned:

Sounds like there’s a difficulty in finding drivers due to holidays and are limited in number of cars they can transport. This tracks with my sales rep mentioning more or less the same. It is a network of providers that transport within the region and aren’t exclusive to any one dealer, so there’s a bit of a backlog.

Is there way to discover what the Quality Action involved?

No, but it sounds like the dealer can tell you whether the hold is due to a Quality Action or damage as those are two separate categories in their internal dashboard.

Weird Porsche didn't announce it when they put out the info for the new logo. Made it seem like just end of the year, no mention of a specific model...and of all cars the Panamera, their least selling vehicle...wtf?!?

One would think that they would be able to specifically see the details internally? I know from all my years of ordering/purchasing BMWs that dealers have the ability to see that information internally.

The announcement was that it (new crest) would enter production at the end of 2023. It was not model specific.

I believe some versions of the new 2024 Panamera have a new monochrome crest...

The Panamera Turbo models are the first Porsche cars to incorporate Turbonite – a new Turbo-exclusive colour that will feature on selected exterior and interior components. Presented in a modern metallic tone, they help lend the Panamera Turbo models an even more unmistakable presence. The work of the experts at Porsche Colour & Trim, it’s the primary colour in the exclusive crest that has been designed for all Turbo models.

Graduation Day as RED FLYR is in the house. I couldn’t be more thrill with this config - Carmine Red with Black/Cognac Interior. Sadly, the weather is absolutely horrendous here in the DMV area today. I’ll post more pics next weekend.

I remember that the announcement isn't as old as the logo announcement. That was in June or early July I believe. I think every single turbo model will get that special color.

Anyone got any TYD updates yet for cars that went on Glovis Comet or Neptune Barcelona in the last week?

Ours is on the Glovis Comet according to our SA, headed for Benicia CA and appears to be mid Atlantic. TYD is broken and still shows at the port.

Did you get the notification saying the car has left the port?

We did. But the TYD doesn’t show the location accurately. Our previous order tracked the car accurately across the ocean.
