I'm new to Porsche so maybe I don't get it but speaking to my current 45 day delay (going to be longer) and from what I see to people with much longer delays.... I feel like everyone just bends over the barrel and takes it here. It's bullish*t that they do this to their customers. SA and dealers don't care and are not going to do a GD thing for you only thing that matters is the mothership's stock ticker and bad press when your public is not good.
How is everyone not raising hell over this? Not blasting the YouTubers and other people with the ear of the company? They are publicly traded now, the game has changed. Im in logistics and know how easy it would be for them to spend some $ to add a few car carriers but they have no incentive to do that unless there's.....bad press.
That's the end of my rant. IM JUST PISSED
EDIT: Speaking only to the cluster F going on in Emden, not the delays I had before or in production or the weight for certain parts. My car is finished and sitting at port for a month now with more prison time added!
I totally agree my friend and now it seems many of our cars have been sat in a holding area in france due to congestion at the port.
To this end I started the thread “What is actually going on at the Port of Emden”, only to have Rennlist members trolling the thread calling people complaining “Children” and gaslighting the forum into the perception that there are no issues at Emden even though affected customers can clearly see that there are.
My car is reportedly now finally at the port as of Wednesday this week but it was completed on the 12th Feb and I have had no information for 5 weeks.
Got Some pictures today, Now the long wait for it to make its way to Canada. Pretty exciting times.
That’s the first Aerokit picture I’ve seen in a while, looks great!
Did your build go through on schedule? Or were there big delays because of the Aerokit? It might help to see when production was scheduled to begin / complete vs when it actually began and completed.
I don’t have Aerokit on mine, but I bet everyone who’s waiting on their build with Aerokit would be really interested in that information.
If your production was totally normal, it would be great to see you build code to understand what options made it through without delay.
Great looking car, congratulations! Now we just need the situation the port to improve.
@NickM I too would love to know the build schedule on the Aero car, since I have one supposedly being built now, but TYD is no longer updating for me, so I'm a bit worried.

Nice car, btw!
Thanks, Sorry to hear about yours, That was one of the first things i did, was check to see if the wing was present or missing.
Yay! Okay my TYD finally just jumped to step 8 (on ship) after sitting unchanged at step 6 since Feb 28. It is on the Phoenix Leader Ship bound for the US west coast which just left the port. Anyone else get on? I hope some you guys that I have been discussing with (and others that also have been delayed) made it as well!! Let me know!

Awesome! Glad you made it on a ship - I had no idea there was another one coming and going so soon. Your TYD never showed the delay until August, right?
Unfortunately, my car is still stuck in port and probably won't be here until they're making 2024s!
