Semiconductor Shortage
My OPC left a message on my vm on Thursday to advise the date had been updated, but apparently doesn’t know what the date is!! I’m starting to wonder how a company such as Porsche can be so poor in its communication. There is definitely something going on, but they must think I came down in the last shower!

Porsche communication is rubbish but then I’m not sure any of them are any better - one of my lotus got lost between Norfolk and Sussex !
For those pushed right back I agree I would be wanting the gen 3 now at the same price.

Oh and I thought it was bad in 2019 waiting for my Gen 2 S (March to September) to get its WLTP certification! You all have my sympathy, mine's made up for it with 19k miles of bliss since , keep following the rainbow......

I’m now in the same boat - an absolute joke…the car was supposed to come out of factory this week and now been advised that’s it’s 30th Sept. To add insult to injury, I wouldn’t have found out unless I proactively emailed the dealer today having read other people’s experiences here.
Trying to decide best course of action - cancel? Request to be put at front of list for facelift?

If your car is in build so the deposit is not refundable then if the date keeps getting pushed back then I suspect you will have a chance of getting Gen 3 car for the same money. If you were to cancel you would likely lose your deposit once it’s gone into build. There not going to keep a production line churning out Gen 2 just to satisfy a few orders if they are waiting to build Gen 3. I suspect though Gen 3 will also be pushed back and you will just have to wait.Macanori wrote: ↑Mon Jul 12, 2021 7:01 pm I’m now in the same boat - an absolute joke…the car was supposed to come out of factory this week and now been advised that’s it’s 30th Sept.

I’m in the same boat in that my GTS is meant to be at the OPC at the end of this month but I’m not holding much hope based on here.
Now taken delivery of Gen 2 GTS http://www.porsche-code.com/PMWQDY44
So I decided this morning to email my OPC to check the GTS was still due at the end of this week. I got a reply to say also due ‘end of September’ which is disappointing but not entirely unexpected given the comments of others.
Not quite sure what to do now, as I don’t think there is much certainty of it arriving for the start of October.
As others have said, first world problems and all that, but I do need a car........

We’ve been staying in Dunkeld for the past few days and finally picked up the GTS yesterday. Took your advice and took the A93 up to Balmoral. Very much like some of the roads and views in North Wales, stunning!!
The GTS is also stunning, but has a bit of an issue with poor bonnet alignment on the passenger side, which will have to resolved nearer to home as we, nor Perth have the time to get it sorted.
