Metablond,
Thanks for responding. Is it that obvious as to whom I am dealing with ? I just PM someone on the board whose car was on the same ship as mine . It arrived on 3/30 in RI and his CT dealer had no problem getting his car to him which pisses me off even further. According to him Porsche has authorized home delivery. I am assuming this dealership was contaminated cause they shut down including service really quickly. Without the service dept open I doubt there is a chance of getting this car. I can’t wait another month or beyond

Hinckley,
Thanks for the response. I am going to give it another week and see what happens. It’s is frustrating and shouldn’t be bitching cause there
are a lot of people in worse situations. I really can’t wait another month or more for the car. I’m thinking if I do cancel I may get a better deal off the lot later in the year. In the meantime I will be buying a second car which I did not plan on buying until Nov.

I contacted Customer Service and heard back two hours later. They will take care of this - just do that.

Porsche Customer Service should be made aware of how this dealership is (not) handling this. I'd hate to have my company represented by a dealership that can't be bothered contacting their customers.

Not sure exactly what dealer you are working with, but I assume based on your dates your car was on the Swift Ace. Mine was as well and arrived at my dealership on Tuesday, exactly one week after the boat arrived in RI. I took delivery of it on Thursday. This should all be able to happen still. It was a delivery outside the dealership and a little wacky (but understandable with everything going on). Good luck.

based on posts here looks like Fairfield and Wallingford dealers are still taking necessary safe steps to ensure customers gets their cars .. so if you have a car with any of those dealers its looking good for you so far

Oh, he stated his car arrived in RI on 3/30, I assumed he meant the port and that's when the Swift Ace arrived at the Davisville port. If there is an especially bad dealer in CT, it would be good to know so I never end up there moving forward. Wallingford has been good to deal with for both my 911 and my RS5

Spoke to a sales manager today, he responded immediately when I called the dealership.
He told me my car is only delayed 1 month (from late July/early Aug to late Aug.early Sep) and Porsche is confident of that timing (as of right now). He said they intend to pump out as many of these ordered cars as quickly as possible. He also confirmed they have more inventory than ever and are cutting deals on lot cars. I'd consider going for a lot car except my build is apparently very rare, they're making less 992 C4s than a typical year of GT3s, and I specifically don't want to move up to a 4S. My discount is 5% so I would start at 7% off for a lot car and aim for 10%.
