Default A surprise, to be sure, but a welcome one!

Checked TYD this morning for my GTS build that has been scheduled to freeze 3/9 for a couple of weeks now. Lo and behold, it is frozen! Now scheduled for production March 18 and delivery May 13! Fortunately I made my final tweak last week so I actually was ready for it to freeze early.

Yup - got the same email yesterday. Oddly enough I changed my config on 2/26 and it still took the change.

Ditto -- my last update was on Feb 24, I added the Matrix headlights since they should be approved and fully functional based on the new regulations.

Good to hear. I get my allocation November 2 and locked in Jan. Started production on 2/15 but an still there with a 3/18 completion. I have been assuming it is out of the body shop and waiting for some missing parts - maybe PDDC related.

My freeze (GTS) was the last week of February. It's currently showing that it goes into production on 3/11(moved up from 3/18) with a delivery day of 5/6 (also moved up from 5/11). However, with all the current world ciaos, I'm going to hope, but not bet that those dates stick. It's a RWD with RAS but without PCCB or PDCC.

Based on the email someone posted in another thread (new delays message in TYD), I think we have good reason to be hopeful. It sounds like they had enough parts on hand to build 911s through the end of the month, and are even cutting production of other models shorter (Taycan and SUV production will halt in the next couple of days) to build more 911s (which will continue production through EOM).

I just got back from a nice drive in my Spyder. Haven't driven it much over the winter. But every time I drive this car, I find that I can't stop smiling and I hear myself say out loud, "God, I love this car!" I hope the GTS provokes the same emotions!
