My dealer is right outside of DC and my car is sitting at port less than 45 miles away. So his is likely at the same port

You’re correct, sorry for any confusion, I was referring to delivery date. Echoing your point about the port location, if I’m being given this timetable, you’d think most customers on the east coast should be in the same boat.

I’d also note that as of yesterday COB some of the Midwest’s most notable dealers, like Nashville for example, have finally posted their “coming soon” 21 992 listings. Having bought from them previously It seems they are typically stingy with incoming listings and don’t post until the vehicle delivery is a week or two out.

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.
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...

Sadly he didn’t specifically mention anything regarding the West Coast, but nothing regarding the mass CARB clearance for ‘21 992 models was East Coast specific...so it’s a fair assumption that West Coast vehicles should be moving towards delivery as well.

I’m just playing the part of an echo chamber for my SA and certainly am not claiming to know the ins and outs of all the 21 lineup delays, so your point about the Cayenne Coupe is correct for all I know. I just know he referenced significant delay on the Coupes this year.

I've got a 2021 911 sitting at the port in Davisville and my dealer is saying they won't be able to deliver until mid-month. Does anyone have a 2021 yet? For those with orders that have already shipped, what is the earliest delivery dates you are hearing? I know the Siem Confucius was the 2nd boat to arrive here with 2021s onboard--a bunch of cars have been in Davisville for 3 weeks already. Definitely aware of the emission approval issue but wanted to know what others are hearing in terms of timing.
Kills me to think of it sitting out there for days in the pouring rain!

Read here for more info and theories than you probably wanted (and be happy you are only in for a few weeks -- mine and many others were on the first boats to carry the 2021's back in late August...) https://rennlist.com/forums/showthre...errerid=247457

I see people complaining about the delays on their cars... Mine arrived in Houston on 8/19. I have had four delivery to dealer dates. I don’t believe any dates now, except the one when my dealer calls me to come pick up the car. Track your nightmare is useless anymore. Porsche could do a much better job of informing their customers and dealers on what is delaying our cars. I know my dealer is as frustrated as I am. They don’t make money unless they sell cars.

Mine is still projecting getting my car sometime around 13th Nov and that is after having the car released from port (San Diego) after PDI and being reshipped to me here on the island (HI). So 11/6 looks like the release date as they need to re-book shipment with another transoceanic shipper to get my car to them and know the schedules pretty well. Worse case I take delivery mid Nov or right before Thanksgiving...there are much worse problems to deal with in our world currently and I hope to be happy and healthy to take delivery when it arrives. Besides...PCNA and my SA DID especially made it clear when I ordered that my delivery date was ESTIMATED not written in blood/stone. I accepted that when I gave them my cash and order. Will either be a very thankful Thanksgiving or very happy Xmas holidays whenever it arrives.

Yesterday I went from being at the Port of Emdem and 38 days to my dealer to this morning at Emdem and to my dealer in 16 days. I'm keeping my fingers crossed.
