My local dealer is asking 10k ADM for an S coupe to be delivered in February. Is this a good deal? Thanks in advance

No. MSRP or keep looking, unless you really want one locked down now and actually delivered in February.

Is it a good deal? No! Paying more for anything isn’t a deal, however, see my comment below…..

I’m with my man here, but it’s going to be tough to acquire MSRP or anything off MSRP in this market unless you know somebody. That’s essentially how me and TheScout13 got our C2S deals. These dealers sell allocations easily at $5-10k over sticker, so without some kind of connection, the dealers aren’t likely to give up profit.

That doesn't seem too outlandish. I would take it. But if the market doesn't support that come February I would walk away unless they reduce it then.

hm. My TYD hasn't updated yet. Still no actual date complete for on vessel milestone. Still shows Siem Aristotle as the assignment but still 10/22 estimated date.

Has your updated? My SA isn't very quick to reply at times so before checking with him, want to see if others are updating.

Still not updated on my end either.

Swung by the dealer today. It's a little confusing what exactly is going on. He was going to reach out for more details. His updated shipping schedule shows the SA arriving in JAX ~10/25 or so, but it also shows the car still at Emden. Maybe a glitch in the system?

I guess the question lies in how they scan the cars or update the tracker. I assumed they get scanned at locations which then updates the systems. But it may not be that streamlined and they may need to do some manual steps, so there could be a delay, or just not update till it gets to the port and they take inventory. Who knows.

The system could be offline for maintenance, which happens periodically. If the car didn’t make it on the boat then it would have been reassigned. That hasn’t happened. The most up to date schedule from today shows the SA making the trip to Halifax, Baltimore and Jax on schedule.

Mine hasn’t updated either, still shows 10/22 siem Aristotle departing.. on my SA end it shows siem Aristotle and car still at port. But he says he had errors on his screen yesterday. I’m assuming it’s a tracking error for us all.

My SA said same thing about yesterdays internal system having problems. While this sucks to hear many people in limbo and having issues with their tracking being updated (whether on the TYD end or their SA end both), the good thing here is that this is in no way a coincidence. With this many unaccounted for vehicles not updated, one would think it must be a tech system glitch or issue. Most likely all of our cars are on their expected ships and in route in some form or fashion (or at least lets hope).

My TYD shows actual arrival to Emden of 10/4 and departing on vessel (siem aristotle) on 10/8. The siem aristotle departed, I’m tracking it, but now my TYD shows departing on the siem aristotle 10/22. So I don’t know if my TTS Cab is on the siem aristotle, or not 🤬 Hope there’s an update to TYD that confirms mine is on the siem aristotle now. Will check with my SA on Monday too.

I bet these cars are on the boat.

The one hard fact is that Siem Aristotle is underway.

Porsche's scheduling system indicates that Siem Aristotle departs Emden on 10/08 and arrives in North America in ~10 days

Porsche's system still indicates these cars are assigned to the Siem Aristotle. I'm not sure when the next ship is scheduled to run, but it may be awhile, and I doubt ALL of our cars got bumped to some ship not yet assigned or scheduled.

Edit: Dealer tells me the regional rep said the car is on the boat. I think we're good.
