Ask your salesperson for an update. My TYD still says that mine is scheduled for production to start yesterday, but his system showed it as having gone into the paint shop on Tuesday!
Thanks. The VIN showed up this morning. So production definitely has started!
My vehicle delivered much quicker than anticipated and a week sooner than TYD indicated---understanding that timeframes are estimated. Wish those who are waiting or in the process much luck and success as they go through this amazing process. Will post final delivery pics soon.
Glovis Chorus folks: the ship has left Santa Marta and is heading towards the Panama Canal. Crossing probably Tuesday or Wednesday, and then ~9 days to San Diego. This lines up with the official schedule from Stena Glovis projecting a 11/27 arrival in San Diego and 11/30 arrival in Benicia.
Noticed this morning that my TYD has lost all the descriptions about my build. The build sheet (accessed from the red down-arrow at the top) shows the list of items with the "code" but no descriptions. Mine still shows arrival at Emden Port on 11/5. No updates since. From what I have heard, even your dealer will not know much more than TYD. I was told they only get a notification when it leaves the port on its way to the dealership so they can plan for its arrival.
Configurations have also disappeared from "My Porsche".

I've had the pleasure and pain of tracking three different vehicles on TYD over the past couple of years. None of the "bad behaviors" of TYD that have been described lately are new - but they tend to cause great frustration. From past experience these outages would last anywhere from a couple of days to a couple of weeks. Not sure if it's just a system crash or updates/enhancements. Either way, the dates shown for "expected" dates are very rough estimates, especially those post production. With your vehicle at Emden, your SA will have access to some better information through the PSVM system. If your vehicle has been assigned or is on a ship, their system will show the ship's name and an actual date. You can then track it with Fleetmon or Marine Traffic (or others) and know exactly when it's due in to the next port. Once at the port your SA (and TYD hopefully) will show you when port processing is completed and when released for transport (cleared customs). As you mentioned, the dealership will be notified by the port when the car is assigned to a transport truck.

Porsche needs some serious technical resources.
Descriptions dropped off early last week. The dealer should be able to get more info than TYD.
No update to My Porsche or Track Your Dream so I reached out to my SA this morning
Good news. My Spyder is at Emden waiting for the next ship to San Diego which should be the Glovis Supreme.
It should be in San Diego just before Christmas. Maybe delivery by the New Year. I'm sure Porsche and the Dealer would like to add that to their 2021 numbers.
I know this is the 992 forum but just adding the anecdotal info for others waiting.

I called my SA and he confirmed I was on Siem Cicero! December 1st docking in Houston.
Curious if anyone did anything for there SA . Am I just excited to finally get my car and that is making me think my SA had something to do with it finally being delivered. Never have I thought of “ tipping “ a salesman before . That’s when I went to the dealer and waited to drive off in the car that was on the lot . Is this different or is it the same ? Any thoughts?
