Porsche Cars UK, register cars during the PDI process at their central facility. My 992T was stuck in there, waiting for a truck out of Jail.

Independent Porsche dealers in the UK are still doing their own PDI and registration. However, I am buying from PCUK dealer.

Halifax for me. Completion is scheduled for 6/20 (on desktop) or 6/21 (on mobile). Not sure why the dates are different between devices. Past that everything is a range. The earliest possible ship for me to Halifax is Supreme Ace leaving Emden on 6/27. If I miss that, the next one will be Sunshine Ace leaving 7/14.

Cassiopeia Leader is at Emden! Hopefully it will pick up our 911s headed to the West Coast.

Sunshine Ace is docked inside the loop! That’s literally 18 minutes away from Porsche River Oaks, and no more that 45 minutes from West or North!

There should be 4 photos. In order, they are:
  • Paint Shop
  • Body Work (the one you posted)
  • Assembly
  • "Elevator" (not sure what it's really called, as I never got that one)
I also never got any emails. The three photos I got all showed up on TYD on the same day, though at different times.

Siem Cicero port arrival delayed 2 days to June 19. Maybe port congestion? It seems to be in position per original schedule?

Order another? Offer to track someone else's for them now that you are an expert?

At what step in the process you see these photos? mine went to step 4 this morning and the ETA for build complete is 6/21....would I see photos before step 5?

I felt this same emptiness when I received my M4 after tracking it for 8 months…

…the easiest solution is to order another one! Worked for me! 🤣

Get her a swimming pool. This was already discussed earlier in this thread. 😝 There’s a solution for everything! 😉

For me, the relevant parts of the timeline were:
  • 5/16 - 4 - Manufacturing started.
  • 5/22 - All three pictures appeared in TYD (I never got the fourth picture, nor any emails).
  • 5/23 - 5 - Manufacturing complete.
Edit: According to the photo EXIF info, the timestamps on the pictures, corrected to my local time to align with the above dates, are:
  • Paint Shop - 5/22 @ 5:00am
  • Body Work - 5/22 @ 6:21pm
  • Assembly - 5/22 @ 11:27pm
