Does anyone know if there's a ship bound for the northeast US this coming week? My build was just completed and is on its way to Emden (a few days ahead of schedule).

Yes. Siem Aristotle

Interesting. Sales guy said it would take 3-5 business days and that mine would be coming with a batch this morning. Can't pick up until Monday though.

Generally this is never a deterrent for any dealership to not let the vehicle proceed with the owner upon arrival as it typically takes a few weeks for the seller dealer’s title clerk to physically go do ttt with the clerks office anyways.

FYI, The least amount of time a new vehicle sits in dealer inventory the better it is in regards to future allocations.

They wouldn't for some reason. I was available to pick it up the last 2 days. They got 15+ 911s recently so maybe they don't care about the allocations bc they sell a lot anyway.

My experience is that the certificate of origin which is needed for a license plate takes a couple days to arrive after the vehicle and then the plate takes another couple days….but I suspect the plate process is dependent on what state you’re in

RatherJaded

They (dealer) all care about allocations irregardless of how many they sell.

BTW, I grant you the dealer principal cares.

Edit: My last 992 purchase was in early 2024. I took delivery on the day of arrival. This has been the same practice at multiple BMW dealerships as well.

Oh well, the matter is clearly beyond your control.

There it is. Delayed to 9/12

ah man :/ sorry to hear that

i think at this point negotiating off some msrp or finding a already built T might be a better move. Especially if no movement by end of June

tr41t0r

Interesting. Now it’s 9/8. I haven’t seen it go down before

GOOD SIGN!!

Looks like I missed the boat yet again….pretty frustrating.

I'm in the same boat as tr41t0r, mine got pushed to 9/9 also. I get the feeling some sensor or chip is to blame.

My assumption is we failed QA and they have to take things apart to fix something

I missed Aristotle today, hoping for supreme Ace on 1st. Technically they can still make the ultra-revised and extended 7/30 TYD shows now, but I’m not holding my breath…
