On order since July 4th, and 'scheduled for production' since Oct 13th, just as my frustration was about to boil over with TYD and the continual delays, I awoke to a new dawn with bright sunshine when I discovered the new and improved TYD and alas, found photos which I had resolved I would never get. Moments later my feeling of ecstasy and joy was interrupted when I noticed that delivery to dealer has gone from mid-April to late May (originally delivery was supposed to be Nov 2022). The last photo shows it is missing the Aerokit so maybe that's the reason for the delays. I think it would have looked better had I opted for black calipers......any comments on that? Good luck to my fellow travelers......keep the faith PS-and yes it appears I have the Goodyear F1's....but not being a tire aficionado, they only have to grip and not blow out at umm, speeds
Theres a guy on here (vic55 or something) who has a SB with red calipers. He posts a ton of good quality pics. It definitely needs some color. One of the earliest SB was black calipers and gloss black and it seemed just a bit one (two?) dimensional. I think you'll be pleased when you see the full package in person.
Secondly I am just like you, going from a .2 GT Silver to a 992 GTS Shark Blue. I cant imagine how your wait has felt. My car was supposed to be in my hands Friday but hasn't left the US port yet and no one knows why.

I guess we really share similar experience. My car went into production since Sep 2022, and the original date I got the car was Nov 2022. Then I plenty of delays (can't remember how many) and early Jan I got the first message saying it's finished, I also got pics for my car with the aerokit there. Then more delays are coming and TYD never says production completed. Recently, I got a new delay for about 6 weeks. Now the ETA is 97days....

I debated black or red calipers on my Shark Cayman. Very happy with red in person. You won't regret it.
Let's see what happens on Tuesday, and if we can get pics.
Just arrived in TYD this morning when I woke. Looks like she was built starting last Wednesday and completed Sunday. Friday mornings picture. Monday Morning (7am EST). Someone was busy this weekend.
My car entered production 2/10 and I got my four production photos including the completed "elevator" photo I posted earlier. TYD estimated CP8.0 production complete would be 2/15 but never updated. Now this morning that date was pushed to 3/6 which pushes my ETD to dealer from 3/14 to 4/3. I wonder what causes a delay like that after the car has been built enough to get all my photos.

Do you have any interior options from Exclusive department? Race-tex or added leather? Someone posted that list of "delayed parts" and I think some of the leather and race tex pieces were causing 2-4 week delays... But I could be wrong.
Likely TYD just hasn't updated properly and in another day or two you will find out that the car is already on its way... Its not a perfect tool by any means, but fingers crossed
Nothing substantially custom, but I do have a few items that are considered exclusive manufaktur like the painted side skirts and front lip, white tach/chrono, gas cap, painted key, and interestingly the preparation for dashcam is considered exclusive manufaktur
Scrolling through here - it looks like there are a few folks who have cars stuck in Benicia, all of them sitting for 9 to 10 days.
Funny thing that my TYD app just updated to the new version and now the car is arriving tomorrow to the dealer. After almost 18 months I'm at the end of the journey...
