Slow to PDI them... holiday may delay some of the PDI processing as tomorrow is 12/31 and getting cars to transport.
Mine update to “Entry Port”. My SA at Porsche of Las Vegas is figuring I should be able to pick my 911 up Wednesday or Thursday (1/5 - 1/6). TYD shows arrival at dealer 1/14.

Got my 992S allocation and commitment # today. Factory build projected for April with a projected delivery at dealer for May 27, 2022. Will be a very happy Memorial Day, I hope. Got it at MSRP as dealer wanted my two, low mileage, Porsches (991.1S and 981S) for inventory and resale. Dealer smartly turned one Porsche transaction into three during a period of low inventory.

My C2 has been at Emden port since 12/23. Like you, the predicted transport is the Siem Cicero for 12/31, but no confirmation from TYD yet, maybe tomorrow?

Looks like my car is being delivered to Morocco. Never seen a route like this in all of the previous ship tracking threads...

I think we may need a separate thread for us Siem Cicero folks.
I’ve been in Emden for 2 weeks, supposed to load today.
My TYD says arrival in Houston on 21 Jan.

Longest month of my life.

cheers!!

Pirates!

Maybe they're going to Jacksonville first, then Baltimore, then Halifax? That is better for me, but sheesh, I agree...let's turn westbound for a hot second, yes?

Yesterday, I took delivery of my 2022 Targa 4 at Porsche Experience Center -- Los Angeles. Family and friends were there for the whole event, from unveiling to all of us in a 911 on the road course, to an amazing lunch at 917. I was dreaming of this day for months. The reality was more than I ever imagined. I've attached some photos of the day. I'm lucky to live close to PEC. For anyone who hasn't done this, it is a once-in-a-lifetime experience. Here's a brief rundown:
  1. We arrived at 8:30. The weather was cool (for SoCal), partly cloudy, and dry.
  2. At the entry, we were greeted with our delivery team. This comprised of 3 people who were with us the entire time.
  3. We got our lanyards, followed by a tour of the facility. The vehicles on display in the museum were described in detail, with rich history.
  4. Next to the museum is a racing garage. It's as clean as a pharmaceutical lab. All types of race cars were in there, along with PEC cars and delivery cars
  5. We then went into the delivery showroom. There was a large screen TV with the names of all the guests, and a photo of my Targa 4.
  6. On the table were silver/black M & M's (my Targa 4 is Dolomite Silver, with a Sport-tex interior), a star for the delivery board, with our signatures on it, and lots of other swag.
  7. There was coffee and French bakery goods for all.
  8. The Targa 4 was illuminated by overhead lights, and covered in a black Porsche cover. The parking lights were on, illuminating the red rear light.
  9. After more discussion of history of the 911 and the Targa, I stood next to my car as they took off the cover. What a glorious sight!!
  10. We then did a thorough (and I mean thorough) introduction to the car, including complete vehicle set-up. The only thing that was left was programming the home-link button (which was quickly done at home).
  11. During the entire event, they were taking high-quality photos with a dedicated SLR camera.
  12. At 9:50, we left the delivery showroom, and made our way to the driving area. Each of us was assigned our own personal driver, in a car in front of us, with radio communication.
  13. We each did a 90-minute Porsche driving experience. I was in a 911 4s. The two others were in a 911s. The driving experience was really something. You learn all types of driving dynamics, and the specific things a 911 does to assist you in a variety of situations. It was fun and hard and educational.
  14. We did laugh control a few times, including on the long straightaway that leads to the famous re-make of the Nurburgring steep turn.
  15. After the driving experience, our whole party was comped for a fantastic meal at 917. Our hosts came over and chatted with us several times during our meal.
  16. After lunch, we went back to the museum and the front of the location. Out front was a Le Man's type race car facing the front doors, on a wide walkway. My Targa 4 was parked at it's rear, facing the opposite direction. PEC was packed yesterday, and there were lots of looks at both cars.
  17. We said our goodbyes, and I drove the Targa 4 home, my son in the passenger seat. It was a fairly quick drive, but oh so enjoyable!!
Just an amazing day!!








so awesome! How did you organize the track use along with delivery? Did your dealer manage or is this something you prepaid for?

Default 992 Targa 4 GTS committed!

I’m locked for my Jet Black Targa 4 GTS arriving in late April/early May. Booked with Porsche Beverly Hills. Sam C. was an absolute pleasure to work with. Soooo excited.

I was swaying between Chalk and Jet Black. Chalk is so beautiful, but I’m a lifetime lover of Black. Just not sure if I’ll wake up one day and not like Chalk for some reason. 🤷🏾‍♂️

pumped.

@TR772 must be new year's eve jitters going towards Morocco. Maybe they'll pick up some good wine or native liquor and store them in the trunks.

I mean, for our pain and suffering.

Congrats!
I started the process back in May and just got an allocation for a C4S on Monday with estimated July '22 delivery as well. Now, waiting to see if the dealer can translate the C4S allocation into a C4GTS.

I tried to access My Porsche and Track Your Dream today, but instead of My Porsche showing my car status along with links to pics of the car on the assembly line and a link to TYD, I got a generic home page. I used the chat feature to find out why my car status wasn't showing up and was told that TYD goes away when the car leaves the port. Has this happened to anyone else? According to TYD when I was able to access it, my car arrived in Houston in mid November and has been awaiting shipment to PEC LA since then. I'm schedule to pick it up on 1/20, so I'm hoping it's on its way.

Happy New Year to all the room members.
