your car is in the QC phase. takes a few days. after the elevator ride it goes through a long QC process to make sure all is well.

Looks like it’s stopping in Manta, Ecuador. Wondering when it arrives in San Diego. Schedule still says 7/16.

Default Sales Associate Fired

So just as my car was about to arrive the dealership fired my sales associate. He called me 11days ago to tell me.

Dealership has not reached out to me and the TYD app says my car has completed the final step.

I paid MSRP + overpriced dealer add ons like PFF and ceramic.

Gonna try getting reduction in price if add-ons, thoughts anyone? Worried about losing a car that took me 11 months to get!

Sorry, I don’t follow your train of thought. You are worried about losing out on your car, so you are going to ask for a discount? Why not just call the sales manager and ask what’s happening with your car?

I believe it's saying your car is at the dealership as of yesterday...
You've waited almost a year for this car...Why are you not there?
I plan to be there when mine rolls off the transport.

Picking up the car from the dealer on Wednesday. Arrived earlier than expected (arrived at Davisville on July 1). Just needs paperwork and we’re on the way! Photos coming after PPF, radar etc.

992.1 QC has been moving rather quickly recently, within 24 hours. Speaking from personal knowledge of three C2S that have done so in the past two weeks.

I went through this on July 2nd. It took 36 plus hours before the App updated and displayed the pics. Furthermore, I only received two of four photos.

Things happened very fast in the last week. Have been shopping for a used 911 for a while. Went to my local dealer I had never met before to test drive a 991.2 GTS. Asked him casually about any S allocations and he unfroze an allocation the dealer was already building, let me spec it and gave it to me for MSRP with $5k in PPF and tint add-ons. Can hardly believe it!

Estimated production start date is 7/16 and the app says 8/18-11/2 delivery. What have people been seeing lately? No crazy PTS options on the vehicle.

I’m pissed because they fired my sales associate 2 weeks ago, my car arrived Friday according to app, and no one from Porsche has contacted me.

If my company fired someone in sales we would have a plan on reaching out to all their customers within hours. ESPECIALLY IF THE CLOSE OF A CUSTOMER’S SALE WAS IMMINENT!

Only reason I know anything is because the sales associate was nice enough to reach out to me after he was fired. Nothing heard from dealership.

I recon they’re busy with the dealer add-ons, I was gonna say me and sales associate had a verbal agreement to finalize add-ons when car arrived. Weak I know, but I’m gonna ask for something in compensation. When you pay over $200k for a car, dealership should do better. At least call when my car arrived!!!

Hi, My GT Silver T is on your boat too. I bought at Champion. Who's doing your PPF?
