This color absolutely rocks! Love it! And it’s even more special on a Turbo S w/ carbon roof. Well done, sir. :-)

Ugh… that stinks! I found it odd that I did not recieve it as that photo is generally one that doesn’t go missing.

Good news is that we are on to step 3 and there is a VIN! Bad news is that the estimated delivery date "range" went back by 5 days.

Generally once a VIN is assigned one’s build typically enters production in 8-10 days.

Good to know! And how long does production typically take? Currently it is estimating a month from start to finish (step 4 to step 5).

Talking Targa GTS has started manufacturing process

My 992.1 Targa has started the manufacturing process as of Jul 8, 2024. Does anyone have any idea when I can expect to receive the first photo from the manufacturing line?

While waiting for the Supreme Ace to arrive, I figured I'd check out some local garages to potentially store my 992 in. Here are some of the cars parked at one of em

I was assigned a VIN yesterday July 11th for my C2S. But, manufacturing doesn’t start until July 25th and won’t complete until an entire month later, Aug 26th. This seems unusual from what I’ve read

It varies… had two builds recently finished a week apart. It took one build five production days and the other three production days. Both were the same 911 variant and the options varied slightly. Note, production in Zuffenhausen is idle on Saturdays and Sundays.

They all come at once and are typically provided once production is completed.

You know, there was only a slight delay with TYD. My SA texted me and told me the car was in transit to the dealership, and within an hour or so TYD updated.

It looks like the Siem Cicero has left the Emden port. Has anyone got confirmation that you are loaded?
