Congrats! I'm doing my part to save the manual transmission too! Is your GT3 going to be manual too?

i just got an update in TYD that my ship is the Siem Aristotle and the dates moved up to match the shipping schedule but my current phase is still Arrival at Emden port. Look under On Vessel and see if there’s a ship listed.

My C4S Cab is due for ED in September. I went MT as well. Super excited to get the new ride!

Absolutely it will be a manual! Having a PDK for several years I mostly felt more like a spectator to the robot transmission's decisions about when to shift. It was brilliant but sterile. Higher MPG is nice but it detracts from my SPM (smiles per mile)!
Sometimes I just wanted to wind it up to the redline and not have to ask "permission" from the robot first.

TYD had my build "Scheduled for Production" on 5/21 with Production Start on 5/28. As 5/21 passed the Scheduled for Production date moved to 5/28 with other dates remaining the same. Now that we are at 5/28, TYD hasn't changed. Anyone else experience these slips?

Mine also has a "Scheduled for Production" date of 5/21 with Production Start on 5/28 (today). We'll see what happens, but I would not be surprised to see the production dates and delivery dates slip in the coming days now.

Looks like the Port issues just got figured out? Switched to en route about an hour ago and if true Dealer would have it at some point today as its not that far from Davisville

Has anyone documented their progress and like have an album with all the milestones and any relevant information? I think it would be cool to catalogue those. Just wondering if i am the only person that thinks so.

My SA advised me today that the entire load of 911’s that arrived in Jacksonville on 5/24 on Siem Confucius are waiting for the tire pressure sensors that are being shipped to Jacksonville from Germany. TYD still says 6/11 arrival at dealer in Naples. Has anyone else heard anything?

Agree it's nice to have. You can have your dealer send you a copy of the tracking sheet from their PSVM system at any time during the process. Attached is a copy of my "final" tracker from last November.

Woot woot! The Siem Aristotle is underway and it looks like I'm on it too. TYD milestone dates have updated to reflect that, due in Davisville June 11th. Marine Traffic has it just about entering the North Sea.

From the day you secured your allocation, how long was it from that date until you received a email from Porsche so you could track your dream progress online?

Thanks!!!
It took a day or so for me to get the TYD welcome email.

Those are the exact same dates and circumstances for me. I check the TYD too many times per day hoping that things will move ahead

I’m not giving up hope just yet! Best of luck to you.
