First timer, been checking around for an allocation for nearly 30-days and got a call back yesterday from a dealer i spoke with approximately a month ago. They are calling around to their potential client list of 992 prospects as they just got some new allocations. He mentioned management wants $15,000 over MSRP for secure one. Is this happening all over ? Summary, i said, no, i will hold off and wait a little longer...

As with many others my car was on the Siem Plato that arrived in Rhode Island yesterday. My TYD is showing a tentative dealership arrival for tomorrow. I called my SA this morning and was told ALL cars are being held at port due to TPMS issue, no indication of how long it may be sitting there. I also called Porsche NA, to see if they could provide any confirmation of this or clarification of wait time. The person I spoke with at Porsche NA did not even know there was a TPMS delay. Has anyone here received any better information? Has your TYD updated to reflect a delay?

Thank you very much, I emailed back that I would pay MSRP and to let me know if they wanted to make a deal. He asked me to email him what i would pay if i would not go along with the 15K over and he would take it to management. I have no issue waiting, time is on my side, not chasing this....

Which seems crazy to me as they have to remove the wheels and then the tires from the wheels and then re-install which involves rebalancing and alignment etc. I know ports are equipped to do some PDI stuff but removing and installing tens of thousands of wheels/tires?

FYI- TYD updated a couple weeks ago and pushed the ETA to my dealer back approx 35 days to June 18. My C2S was on the Viking Queen which left California last night for Japan so I assume my car made it off and is now sitting in Benicia waiting for whatever it needs. Original ETA was May 15 at my dealer. The next month will be painful but I am hopeful they get the TPMS or whatever chip it is the car is missing handled quickly. Its only a 10-12 hour drive from port to my dealer in Portland.

understood and I wasn't questioning you. I appreciate the sharing of info on this forum. Lot's of good info here. It just seems so strange to me that they do it that way. I know for 911's they have someone at the factory get your wheels/tires perfectly set with toe and camber. Surprised they would be able to do this at a port on a mass scale. Looks like they can....
