GT3 RS on order. Just hit V250 yesterday according to TYD. The VIN was assigned overnight.
This is my third 992 so been in this waiting room a couple of times before.
First in 2019 for a C2S when TYD was horrible but the build was relatively quick.
Second time last year for a GTS when TYD was better but the build time was all over the place.
This time if all goes according to what TYD says it'll be the fastest build I've ever experienced but I've learned to not get my hopes up.
The car is Ice Grey Metallic with the Pyro red accents and wheels (like the launch spec). The configurator for some reason shows it as silver though.

Nice, my ice grey "T" is on the same exact schedule as you. Maybe 3/7 is ice grey paint day.

I got notified on TDY that I am on the Dong-A, which is on it's way to Benicia/SF Bay...so if you haven't been notified yet it makes me think maybe you aren't, hope I am wrong. Here's a link to the main VW transport company...

Has your T moved to stage 3? I’ve got the same schedule, but I’m still on config locked Stage 2.

So, if TYD is showing step 6 (released for transport) as red with a date of 2/3 and step 7 (arrived at port) as grey with a date of 2/11 does that mean that my car is stuck at the factory, partway between the factory and Emden or actually at Emden but just not updated?

Porsche just accepted my 992 Carrera T order yesterday…I received confirmation via email and a link for TYD. The freeze date is 3/26 and anticipated delivery date 5/29.
Should I expect changes in those dates or are they accurate?
Thanks

Your Step 8 date will answer the question. Has that date passed as well?

No right answer for this one. Anything and everything can happen. Perfectly on time, Early or many delays along the way.

Okay. Then yes, something in your build is likely holding it up. Did you get all 4 of your TYD pics including the full built car? Perhaps post your build sheet.
