Yes.

My current C4S has frontal and some side but I thought this one deserved a little more care!

Congrats on the beautiful GTS!..can't say it doesn't sting a little to see a '23 GTS (unless yours is a '22 with PTS) with Aerokit get delivered while my '22 has been in production since 8/24 with no end in sight.

It's tough isnt it?
I'll give some history to mine as I'm not sure how it all fits in with your experience.

Order placed, deposit paid 10/11/21
Reached top of OPC GTS list June 22, delivery would have been August 22 (est)
Order finalised 25/06/22 adding Artic Grey, salesman confirmed delivery would need to be after September 22 if I wanted Artic Grey so delayed order.
Arrived 22/11/22 to dealer.

Firstly I don't trust the My Porsche/Track Your Dream info as mine didn't match what the dealer could see on their system.
Secondly, maybe there is a delay on yours because of Bose? I went with Burmeister which my be the reason why mine has landed.

Has your OPC said anything detailed about your delay?

My timeline is more depressing...

Order Demand 7/21
Allocation 12/21
Original Delivery date August '22
Current Delivery date 1/20/23

I have Burmester on my build, too. Basically Porsche is telling me nothing.

Your saga is so upsetting because we all know cars are being delivered with options that are supposedly delaying your car.

That's nuts mate.
I know the US market is rife with dodgy sales practices, ADM etc, is there any hint that your allocation is getting bumped by the dealer in order to satisfy more lucrative customers?

No, guess I should have provided more details on my allocation. It’s definitely real, it’s just been delayed by Porsche. It went into production on 8/24 and has been there ever since…so over 3 months so far.

I would be asking Porsche and dealer for a ‘23 model (assuming it is a ‘22 based on timeline) or a significant discount..that’s nuts

It is a '22, VIN was assigned back in August. Already in communication with PCNA about the situation and we are working on possible solutions.
