My sales manager just texted me to say that he is being told the CARB block is being lifted and my 992 will be here by end of this week. Wants me to come in to get ppw rolling and grab credit app.

Not sure how to decode that statement. Makes me wonder if the 911s will make the 11/6 date.

The dealer inventory date for my Spyder has been 12/04/20 since back in July when the car first went to "vehicle fixed" status. I'm still hoping that is an outside date, but both my SA and PCNA are telling me 12/04 is the date. Every other entry has been ahead of schedule.

I'm not really hearing anything on the 992 from my dealer. Just a couple of people have had contact with their dealers and that could honestly be a mistake. If it was across the board true I think more of us would have heard.

There is a lag between EPA approval showing on the website and being released from port. The 992’s could be approved this week, or are already approved, but the backlog of 2021 Cayennes and Macans at port has to be transportation nightmare.

To any skeptics of this just being lip service, these guys were well versed in the CARB issues and essentially echoed everything in this thread, including the significant frustration and order cancelations that have occurred. It should be noted for anyone awaiting an incoming 992 Turbo model; after citing the fact they were given the initial date of 9/11 for delivery, the SM confirmed the Turbos will still likely be tied up till the first week in December, at the earliest, and made a point to say they have been THE CULPRIT of all of this. He referenced the similar delays that occurred with the Cayenne Coupes, which took 6 months to clear because the pissing match with CARB and VW is far from over...

While this is my first post at Rennlist, I can actually corroborate the updated arrive claim made above, having just departed our local dealer in D.C. after trading in my Macan S and finalizing deposit on an incoming C2. While I, unlike most of you, did not spec my 992 from the factory, my thinking is that this should not affect the validity of the time table update I received from the dealer, for most of you here. Prior to leaving my SA and the SM both informed me that my 992 had cleared CARB and been updated to just a week to a week and half out, after having been told this past Saturday that it would likely arrive 11/30. They also emphasized that this should be the case for ALL eastern bound, non-turbo 2021 992’s currently on US soil, as they had all been collectively approved as of the beginning of this week.

I'm hoping he is talking about delivery date which if it officially cleared tomorrow would make sense. As he is in dc and not close to either east coast port
