So the complete date was changed from maybe an original 3/12 or so date to 3/24? At what point in the process did it change? With mine just getting a production number and set to go into to production on 4/1 I expect if it is delayed it will happen on the 4/1 date?

 

the original production start date was 3/11. But strangely the system was stuck on 3/11 with all original future dates until 3/20... when it updated to the new 3/24 completion date. And corresponding 4/28 dealer arrival. So not really confident that she'll be done tomorrow!

 

I wonder if Porsche's just in time scheduling changed if a boat spot wasn't available or there was a glitch in getting it on the boat. Seems they would reserve spots in advace given their scheduling process. May not be totally in their control?

 

Could be...I'm sure boat schedules continue to be an issue. As long as all my options are on the car! The delay is fine.
And sorry...meant to say Friday...not tomorrow on my above post.

 

Yes, I am more worried about options missing than delay.

 

Anybody else receive this gift while we're waiting? I received this yesterday from the good people at Porsche...in Gentian blue!!

 

That’s very nice. I got a pen.

 

I received digital artwork if that is the gift? Can I trade for gofit's gift? Is it a manual portfolio (holder)?

 

You should at least get a pen!! Yes it's just a small credit card holder. but it was in a very nice box!

 

And because this process is taking so long...i talked myself into buying the euro spec cup holder covers. After installation...probably end up being worlds most expensive cup holders!!

 

Is the next gen panamera launching in 2024? Has anyone spoken to their dealer about this?

I have seen some news articles about an updated panamera being tested but so far Porsche has said nothing about it. We were planning on moving from our Cayenne to a Panamera GTS ST but would prefer to wait for the new gen in case it is releasing this year.

 

Fall of this year, according to Edmunds.

New model has been spotted testing in the US.

i dunno, but i guess it will be released around late 2023

 

My manufacturing start date moved from 4/1 to today and delivery to dealer is a week earlier!

 

Has anyone been able to obtain a digital copy of their Panamera's Owner's manual? I reached out to my dealer and they said no. I tried to register the VIN that was assigned to my order in the MY Porsche "ADD VEHICLE" but it wouldn't accept the VIN. It started production 3 days ago. Trying to get ahead of delivery but reading up on the various aspects of the car. Thanks.

Also for those that have received their car, does Porsche include all the model variations in the written owner's manual that comes with the car (I assume this is still the case?) or are there various owner's manuals specific to some of the models.
With so many variants it would have to be pretty extensive to cover everything?
