Being in California with the current fires, I'd be more concerned about the ash that can lay down on cars outdoors. If it stays dry, no problem, but some reports are saying that any ash that gets wet and not fully washed off, can etch the clear coat. Don't know if its true...

looks like 12 days until release .. keeping my fingers crossed!
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!

That seems to be how things have been for 20 years. I know there are a few dealerships/SAs who are up-to-date, but for the most part it seems that they are generally less informed that people who frequent Rennlist or other forums. I know it's easy for me to say, but it seems like it would make sense, if you were a SA, that getting on Rennlist would be a key part of your day. The questions that come up here could be researched and then you'd have so much more expertise available for your customers.

I think this depends on if ur SA is an enthusiast or not. I know a few that are independently wealthy and do this for fun... they are great.
others are just pawns trying to fill quotas and are very disengaged. The entire dealership setup is prone to be very malignant.

Agreed. I guess my guy is just trying to fill the quota. Oh well, he gets us the cars so I can't complain too much.

Just a datapoint last year... the Estimated date of release was 9/6, looks like that got pushed back to 9/16 and then 9/20. The epa actually certified the 2020s on 8/27 and they were Actually released on 9/3.. but there was no indication on the epa website of certification until much later. The only reason people knew on 9/3 is because their dealer got notification of shipping.
