I am usually not a defender of car dealers but in this case they are at the mercy of the engineers in Germany. They just need to be honest and set expectations. This "any day now" stuff is not honest. Just be honest, it goes a long way. Mid September is the general date we all should focus on.

For sure... we just want some honest information... transparency is not a bad word. I'm disappointed and thought I would have it by now... but went away for a bunch of weeks and told my dealer to call if it changes, otherwise will see you at the end of Sept to pick it up when I get back. Just glad it is at least in the US. VW has had some very notable software issues. The ID4 is a disaster by all accounts.
He's not "picking it up today". His sales guy keeps telling him "any day now" and he believes it.
The stop sale is still in place.
My car has been sitting in Baltimore (Cayenne S) since July 17. I have reason to believe I will not see the car until September 15...
At this point, the dealers need to be honest with the customers. Porsche USA needs to be honest with their dealer network. Porsche AG needs to be honest with Porsche USA. Honesty goes a long way, even when the truth is hard to swallow.
First time poster, but thought I’d update the thread.
Just got a call from Larry at Porsche Burlingame (SF Bay Area). His GM has announced there is a US fix (as of this morning). My Cayenne base is being held in port. They had no updates on when they could apply the fix (eg they don’t know whether it can be released from port or if it needs updating before it’s released). Nor so they know yet the delivery date.
That definitely correlates with some of the recent posts.
We’re getting close!

Same crock of s*** going in with the X5. Stop sale related to software issue with the Driver’s Assistance Pkg. My M60i produced last week arrived at the dealer yesterday. Sales Mgr says a fix coming by weekend. We will see!
The software fix was installed on my X5 today and I’ll pick it up on Monday. Not that most Rennlisters much care….I get it
SA just reached out to me too. Software will be installed on Cayenne S and finished tomorrow. May be able to pick it up Saturday but most likely Monday!

Got the same update from my SA today for my CS. Texas.
Picked up the S today in ATL as promised. Porsche made it happen and I couldn’t be more excited! Signed up for the Porsche Experience and it was all worth the wait. First delivery of a 2024 Porsche at Atlanta. Please and thank you go a long way.
