Default 992 Production Shots

Is there a way to watch your car go through production at the factory?

That's a question I would also like to find out the answer to.
I think it depends which country you live in, but here in the UK my dealer says we have 'Behind the scenes', which doesn't appear to offer anything as far as I can see, but happy to find out otherwise if anyone knows?

No. They have videos of cars being built during the production process. That's it. If your lucky, you might get a shot of your car in the body shop and at the end of production in MyPorsche.

I emailed Porsche about getting production photos of my car. They told me if you special ordered a car, the photos can be requested. I purchased mine from dealer stock so they stated that the photos were probably unavailable.

Who do you contact for that?

I didn’t have any luck after the first email. Just sent another one today to see if I get a response.

I have responses to my emails and they are "working" on getting me the pictures . . . . I will not hold my breath but I am hopeful.

Seems like people are getting production photos on the their "Track Your Dream" tab on myPorsche. It's probably activated when the commission number is attached to a pre sold order.

My car is halfway across the ocean on the way here and I still don't have it on TYD or My Porsche site. I'm going to email them to see if they have the pics though.

Any idea where the track my dream tab is? I did a search and can’t find it.

You can reach it from My Porsche. When you login you should be able to see your car with 2 options. Discover current phase and Track Your Dream.

That will take you to the TYD site below. Trying to go straight to the TYD site from the direct link usually brings up an error msg for me.
