TTS, got added to the allocation list October 20th, got my allocation February 18th at MSRP (it was someone else’s and he had agreed to ADM then ghosted the GM), weird that lock date was 2/01 before my order, waiting for pictures as the car is now at Emden and waiting on a boat. My first Porsche after getting rid of my M8.

Folks, are we going to get cars with April builds? The news reads that the factory is closing. Do we think this will not affect April builds? Maybe even some March builds? Porsche Suspends Production Due To Conflict In Ukraine: Report (jalopnik.com)
No one with a 992 build previously scheduled with a March or April production date has yet reported substantial delay or notice of a substantial delay for any reason. My freeze date was in March and production dates for April have been moved up a week, not back. My delivery date has never changed. Time will tell as we will know in a few weeks.
Those unfortunate buyers rescheduling Porsches over on the FA thread have received freeze, production and delivery dates in May- July. However, they report some options are no longer available (PCCB, PDCC).
Could all very well change tomorrow.

Old news of questionable reliability as the Jalopnik article freely admits. The source for this is us and Twitter. The information came from theFelicity Ace thread here on Rennlist. The Russian invasion shut down 2 plants in western UK supplying the VW-Audi-Porsche shared SUV platform= shared wiring harness. That is a fact. That shut down the Leipzig factory for Macans & Panamera for several weeks. Wiring harness mfgr’r is global with many factories around the world and was reportedly shifting production. Leipzig line reportedly scheduled to restart again March 11. No one else has reported the stopping of the 911 production lines other than this article sourced to a Rennlist thread and Twitter.

Quick update. I have had an April 8 build date for sometime - GTS RWD. I asked my dealer to confirm my car would be built as scheduled, and as of late last week I was, according to the dealer, still "on schedule." Yesterday, I checked TYD and I was met with the sad-man holding his umbrella. Today I checked again, and according to TYD (which I realize needs to be taken with a grain of salt) my build date has moved to April 1 (hopefully this isn't a joke). I am now 85 days away from the car arriving at my dealership. The excitement continues to build.

My SA has told me that he has seen no delays in any of the 911s that he is following for his customers, nor has he received anything from P to indicate a halt in 911 production in the coming weeks.

Hey guys. Here’s the latest on the sfl Composer. It made port at Davisville on March 15th. The GM at my dealership told me this afternoon that the ship hit some seriously bad seas which resulted in many vehicles sustaining minor damage. Whatever that means. He doesn’t know either. They are going on carefully inspect all vehicles before transporting them to the dealerships. My dealer has 15 on this ship. So the best case is that it’s a short delay and the worst is something I don’t wish to think about. Staying positive

Wishing you good luck with little to no damage to your vehicle. I heard the same from a dealer today (not about my car which is on a different vessel).

Congrats to everyone expecting delivery. Today I was quoted a 10k ADM by my local dealer on a 2022 C2S. Can get on waitlist for allocation for a refundable 1000, and eta on vehicle would be "end of year, roughly.' But ADM (they refer to it as 'market value') could change by time of order/allocation. Is this what most of you guys went through during ordering process? Wondering if I should shop out of state. Im in Philadelphia, PA.
