Maybe it was loaded on a big metal boat with no signal to update the airtag so it goes crazy?

Don't want to throw shade on your dealer but they are mistaken. The Confucius is 650 miles from Halifax in the North Atlantic, as of 5 minutes ago. It won't be in Halifax until early morning April 1. They may be relying on TYD, which is Porsche's best guess as to when the ship will arrive.

Wow, what a nice present to see this morning. I feel like a little kid. I think the waiting (since Oct 21') has made these progress steps that much sweeter.

That's pretty much in the port... just a small swim

If I was a betting man - last week I would have lost after TYD updated to show estimated completion date of 4-12 from 3-20.

But today TYD has updated to Arrived at European Port. Just need to catch a ride to JAX now.

Default V Codes

A question for the experts here: Have on order a C4S. I'm maintaining a build folder and my SA has been forwarding me the build sheet codes as the car moves from point to point. While reviewing previous posts regarding the "v codes," I see V200, V250, V270, etc. Since going v200 a few weeks ago I've received the following updates: v210, Change Freeze Point Reached; and v220, Vehicle Selected For Production. I haven't seen these codes listed anywhere else. Am I missing something, or are these new code numbers from P? Thanks in advance.

UPDATE: The Glovis Sunrise has hit the Pacific Locks of the Panama Canal. Took longer than I expected, but any movement is good!



And here's an impression of my wife watching me glued to a webcam two evenings in a row.

And “whoot there it is” another four week delay! You got to love this process. I can understand a delay before you start production, I can understand the delays at the docks. But why would you start production, get to the end of the line then have a four week slip. So much for managed precision production. The real blast is that after that initial four weeks of waiting for a part or even a few parts, now you invoke another four week delay. I wonder how they would react if once they deliver the car I decide on the last day to wait four weeks before picking it up or then at the end of that four weeks delay pickup another four weeks?

yea I don’t believe I would be able to do it either but go with me for the ride as that is what this is. I’m starting to feel like Silver after the Lone Ranger road him hard and Tonto stopped at the bar that one episode. 🎠🎠🎠🎢

Same here, $170,400 is now $175,320. That more than pays for the $2,745 for the "Maintenance Plus 2" that I agreed to when I got the allocation - and leaves enough to cover about half of the paint correction / PPF work. This is the first time ever I feel good about seeing a price increase...

I’m going into month 5 of production. Started November 28th and who knows when it will complete. Feel your pain.
