Just found out that my 911 sitting in Emden since 7/8 missed the 7/15 departure of the Swift Ace. TYD now says on am scheduled to be on the Goodwood which leaves sometime today. Only a 6 day delay but I have been waiting since January. Of course TYD could be wrong but I doubt it.

It would be nice to follow the car along. I guess you have to have patience with this process. First time for me. Good luck!
I called PCNA, they told me only the dealer can put me in TYD, so I called my SA, and he looked in the system and said everything looked correct. He did some kind of "reset" that pushed an email out to me, however, and shortly after he did that (maybe a couple hours) I suddenly had access again. The one other thing I did was try to setup "My Porsche" but it said it already had my email address (which I knew--I was just hoping that maybe it would cause something to sync up). So not sure what, exactly, led to it working but now it does (although my map is not displaying behind the status).

Good luck to you, too :-)

Everyone is having issues currently with the map. Probably a temporary issue synching with google maps.

Bummer. My car was at Emden on June 30 and missed the July 5 boat. The allocations on the boats fill up fast.

- YOU wait not-so-patiently for your dealer to FIND the truck your car is on, traveling all over the Southern United States and hoping it arrives ... at some point.
- You wait not-so-patiently for your dealer to prep and deliver your car.

I think you actually get your car and enjoy it in the end, but I’m only on the second to last step above myself.
Almost perfect; I took the liberty of adding one step above.

You might want to check the odometer before you sign for it. Just sayin’.

Well, my car just got moved out tonight to production complete on 9/11 and delivery on 10/30. So, I guess it's either a parts issue or something else. Anyway, I will be putting on snow tires when it gets here.

They run their logistics pretty tight so if a supplier fails to deliver, it's going to create havoc on the assembly process..

I hate this delay for you. Good news, our cars will be siblings with mine also to be done with build on 9/11. We shall see.

Ha! Okay Yeah been doing the configurator thing already....I even have a spreadsheet with 5 or 6 different builds on it! LOL. Hmm tho my SA said my allocation locks today so makes sure I have everything I wanted. He put it in the system yesterday but had to trade for the allocation which he just got Monday so maybe that was the lock her referred to. How do I track this stuff? You guys are getting emails from Porsche?

(all he had was one base Carrera). How the hell did that happen?? LOL

See above post....but I see will ask. No am not asking a thing..if I do I'll spend more $$ than I have allocated! Options are easy if you keep looking at them....can always justify ONE more thing!
