Sport Turismo that have been delivered..
I seem to have lost the thread on this, so apologies if this is duplicated. Would love to see which cars have been delivered as I wait for mine.....

As far as I know, No cars have been delivered because they haven't been cleared by CARB. Mine is sitting at the port waiting for clearance. Very frustrating. I even got a letter from PCNA apologizing for the delay as it could be up to 12 weeks. My car was supposed to have been delivered first week of January.

As to states that do require CARB certification (and I live in California, so that's me) nobody seems to know when to expect CARB approval.
On December 19, PCNA sent a letter to dealers saying (regarding the non-hybrid Sport Turismos) that EPA certification was expected in March, "likely April" for CARB. Since the EPA certification was attained two months ahead of that schedule, my dealer and I are hoping that means the CARB process will be accelerated as well.
FWIW, the first estimate for my car was delivery in December. It arrived at the dock in San Diego on 12/7. It's still sitting there.
If anyone has anything more up to the minute, please let us know!

The majority of states do NOT require CARB (California Air Resources Board) certification. Since EPA certification has already been attained, cars have been shipped to dealers in those states and some customers have already taken delivery.

Oner minot irritant. I always get the side markers on my GT3RS changed from orange to clear.
on the Pana this is not possible as I have been told there are no side markers at all on the Euro Panameras, so the clear part is not made...

I have a contact person at CARB. He has told me that "officially" they estimate it takes them approximately one month after EPA to release their certification. That is consistent with the PCNA dates released for non CARB and CARB deliveries to dealers. However my contact has told me if Porsche has delivered all the appropriate paperwork to CARB it can actually be completed in about two weeks unless they find a problem, which usually isn't the case. So hopefully your car will be delivered shortly. Please let us know exactly how it turns out. I'm still waiting for EPA certification on my E-Hybrid which has been in San Diego port since September.
Thanks! That sounds pretty credible and I sure hope it's true. I ordered the car in June and my patience is wearing thin. I will update this as soon as something happens.
Thanks again.

my dealer is telling me 3 more weeks
This is the email I just got after I said people were getting there cars.So the cars have received Federal EPA certification, but we are still waiting for CARB certification. Typically CARB comes about 2-3 weeks after Federal EPA - but it is subject to the government approval. It could be a week or even two or three. Fingers crossed, but the first step is complete!
