Production / Delivery Delays

[Hawk]

Awesome Hawk. My GTS is getting ready for shipping. Woohoo.

Eric

Good news for all today! You'll be enjoying before summer arrives.

My GT3 build finally locked - Freeze Point Reached 03/23/2022!
Will need to wait for tonight's update to see if any other milestones have been changed.

That’s great news Hawk, I just got an email from Porsche as well saying production will begin soon, woot woot!

Good news for all today! Appears that the factory is open and production continues even if somewhat delayed.

My GTS has been in production since 2/14 and completion has moved a few times and now says 4/1 for production complete. Hoping for a good update soon.

Fingers crossed you get that update very soon.

I experienced something odd today with my TYD. My Milestone "Change Freeze Point Reached," which previously listed my "Actual Date of Milestone Completion" as 03/24/2022, today changed to 03/28/2022. Seems odd that an "Actual date of Completion" would change once it had been previously reached. I didn't care so much that this milestone date changed, however, all of my future milestones were once again delayed further. Anyone else experience this - an Actual Date of Completion subsequently changing?

Mine did the same. Originally my freeze point was set to 2/1/22, then it started moving by days. Then when the ship that caught on fire, my dates moved by months. Then it started moving back to normal and it landed on 3/01 freeze point and everything so far has moved almost a week forward. I think that they are trying to compensate for the plant shut downs. By the way, how long are they planning on shutting down the plant for?

It seems like they are still producing 911s but I have heard conflicting news on this.

Just to clarify - Are you saying that once a milestone has actually been achieved (as my Freeze Point was) the "Actual Date of Milestone Completion" can change anyway? In hindsight, that would mean that I did not actually reach that milestone. I assumed that once you reached a milestone that particular date would not change, although all future milestones would continue to change. If an already reached / achieved milestone date can change then TYD is more unreliable than I anticipated.

I have also heard that the Stuttgart factory remains open and will continue to remain open for as long as possible. There are no fixed plans for a shutdown at this point but, that could change.

That is weird but I think it happened on my Taycan order. I don't think it was the freeze date that changed, it was the actual production start date that changed.

My son who collects hot wheels told me that they're releasing a shark blue 2022 GT3 soon so you should be on the lookout for that. Would look nice on the key chain.

My GTS is still showing it's in production with a CP8 completion date of tomorrow.
It's been allegedly in production since 2/14 which seems a really long time.
I'm betting the CP8 date gets pushed again but hoping it doesn't.

You should be able to ask your SA for info. He has a much better view of dates than what you and I have in our Apps.

Hopefully, it will complete production tomorrow. I would definitely contact your SA, as Eric has suggested, and request additional info as to why it is taking so long. Maybe just waiting on a part but, it would be nice to know for sure. Normal production takes one to two weeks.

Thanks for the tip on the hot wheels shark blue 2022 GT3.
