This is really big. Any car, let alone $100+ performance cars sitting completely still for a month or longer without even turning on the runner for a bit is an issue. Tires flat spotting, fluid issues, sun beating down on the car with no interior humidity control etc..

I’ve noticed, the factory seems to be very efficient manufacturing the cars. I think the delays happen post production.

Hopefully they built your car with the correct chip (that is allowed into your country), so they will ship your car quickly.

Correct. That's my experience too. Quick production process then they sit at both the exit port and the port of entry.

Nor should they. Quite bad for the engine to do that.

I'm awaiting a GTS order for this spring. I've never actually seen this graphic before when i log in to my account. This is the first time a projected delivery date was given. Hopefully that means they plan on the shipping issues to be worked out by then. Looks like the projected delivery about two months after completion. Not bad? Seem like most people expect around 6 weeks.

Is there an updated VAG shipping schedule for Feb and into March? My build finishes on the 26th and I'm eager to track it...

The only thing that would make me happier than arriving 4 days sooner than the 24th would be finding out if my car has the offending Russian military grade chip or not 🧐.
My car may have enhanced night vision and targeting capabilities-nobody can tell me currently.
Thanks for the schedule.

No worries...

As per the Production Delay thread these Boaty McBoaty face and "Dude...which ship is my 911 on " shipping status comments should stay here. LOL

I hit V250 status last night with my VIN being assigned. Still on track for completion on March 5th. Seems that the chip issue still isn't delaying anything on my end.
