P-Drooler, What State are you in? Are you in a CARB State? Is your car at a dock now? I am told my car is June Manufacture with an August delivery, so hoping this schedule holds up, if not improved.

Default Finally!!!

I just received an email from my Texas dealer telling me that the EPA has certified the 2018 Panamera 4-E Hybrid. The email stated that my car was now in line for PDI, and then delivery to the dealer.
Happy Day!!!

Hopefully, the Turbo-S e-Hybrid is not far behind!

I am not in a CARB state ... my car is somewhere on the Atlantic Ocean right now, scheduled for April delivery.

No kidding, mine has been in Jacksonville since December. I can only hope this is good news as last word I received was May delivery.

Good news . . . finally! Sales rep just called me this morning and said Porsche is releasing the cars to the dealers. I'm in Illinois (non-CARB state) and the car has been sitting in Houston since September. He said my (actually my wife's) car is loaded on the truck and should be here in a few days. After 8 months of waiting it looks like it's finally happening. I would think many of the rest of you will be getting similar calls. These next few days are going to seem like weeks.

Hello All... Man what a wait.... Mine had (notice I said *had) been in Houston since August.. Finally came in yesterday.. I live in MN non carb state. Was at the dealer and took off the plastic wrap and hand washed it for pre delivery.

I must say, initial thoughts is that it was very dirty on arrival, but cleaned up nicely. NO major blemishes in exterior or interior.. Now I think I can get excited. Hope everyone has safe arrivals for their new 4-E's

Will get some photos up next week in the 4-e owners thread..

I'll be interested to hear what mileage you are seeing indicated after a full charge?? I know there was a major software installation that was done at the ports and hopefully it will have an impact on the electric only mileage??

Any idea what this "major software installation" was about? Where did you hear this?

There is a PCM update but suspect it would be installed as the car is prepped.
