I haven’t reached out to Porsche NA and based off the others comments I probably won’t since they don’t seem to be helpful. The GM and SA have been empathetic and as helpful as the can be, but they are just in the dark as me. Regional Manager blamed it on production delays like others have seen and finally recently said the aero kit. However I’ve seen many Ts get delivered with the aero kit and that car hadn’t even went into production when my car started.

it’s been frustrating to say the least. It’s not just delays but not knowing when they will end. I’m starting to think about other options. May 28th will be 6 months the car has been in production.
Oh man...that really stinks and I hope things quickly resolve and you get your GTS with aero kit delivered ASAP.

That's really frustrating. Mine is at 2-month delay and soon will be 3 months. Yours is the longest I've seen at 6 months. I think something is ****ed up on their production line. A significant number of people is experiencing this delay. Not everyone is on this forum but we already saw so many reports of delay.

It’s definitely strange. There were a handful around that time when mine went into production that were extremely delayed too and I think most have now dropped off and gotten their cars. Seeing the boards the past couple of days it seems like we are starting to see delays again unfortunately and it seems to be more common for everyone.

Something must be going on with so many of our cars being held up the past few weeks. What could be happening?

So you got the elevator pic too?

yep got elevator picture. My guess is significant unreported component shortage. They build the unit almost to complete then receive component and install.
