Default MY18 delivery prediction

I placed an order for the MY18 Turbo S E-Hybrid sedan (wish the Sport Turismo was available in this config... hear us roar PCNA!) a few weeks ago and so far the dealers cannot commit to a delivery date.

Have you ordered an MY18 Panamera? What are people hearing as far as expected delivery timeline for the MY18 sedan or Sport Turismo body?

Have a real allocation and a Sept build for the Turbo S hybrid sedan. Doing Europe delivery early October. Looks like real commitments. This is going to be fun...

Congrats, should be joyous! Assuming you're picking up in Stuttgart, you'll be one of the first to experience the new "delivery center" that's been (or may still be) under construction.

Would a Panamera be collected from where they are built, in Leipzig?

You can do either according to the configurator, but seems like you would do the Leipzig to get the factory tour they are giving at the time.

Somewhat surprised they don't have Los Angeles delivery by now with the center there. No where near as exciting as Europe for most people, but for those who just want to do a little track time at the center in a loaner or rather tour the US on the way home...

I configured an order for the Turbo S e-Hybrid and my dealer placed a "demand order" with PCNA. Those sort of orders do not have an allocated build date, but are used by Porsche to estimate demand for various configurations.

Once allocations are distributed to the Zone reps and from them to individual dealers, a build date can then be associated with the order.

Collecting from Leipzig rather than Stuttgart since haven't been there yet. Manufactured in Leipzig too.

Default Me Too!

So I have placed my order for the 2018 Panamera e-Hybrid. I have received a "Build Sheet" from my SA that he received from PCNA. Under Vehicle Status it shows "V200 - Delivery Date determined" but my SA has not given me a specific delivery date. He told me his allocation was for a June build and he is hoping we will receive the car in August or September. I am going to do the Delivery Experience in LA and I'm hoping for on or about August 1st as my lease expires on my current vehicle at the end of July. Is that realistic with a June build? Should my SA be able to provide me with at tracking sheet now or will that come later?

So nobody has a build date for the e-hybrid? I'm wondering if there is a problem with the e-Hybrid since apparently Car57 has a build date for the Turbo S Hybrid??? Does anyone have a build date yet for the e-Hybrid??
