Poster (Nav) forum profile says they are from from Middleborough (which I first read to be Middlesbrough and at first assumed North Yorkshire, UK) however assuming it is Middleborough which is in Massachusetts, United States they will have access to "Track Your Dream" app, which is a US only thing

...ah that's what I did as well...back to watching the email then

My GTS was originally due to start production 18 March. It went back 4 weeks with all the new delays. So production starts this Friday fingers crossed, not been told of any further delays.

Well chased again - let's see what I get back this time....

Mine is a "slightly" delayed April / May delivery from a January order.

It's no biggie: the world has gone to hell since even then and I think it could be months still.

Doing the Porsche Experience at Silverstone soon but wondering if they should not substitute the CT4 I ordered for the VW ID3 I am currently driving around in. Might be more useful!

Hi - when was the initial build date? Trying to find others that have an April build to see potentially how long I will have to wait. My dealer has gone radio silent on me....

The first week of April. But it's a CT4, which has what I am told is the fastest order-to-build time of current CTs. I specced up a standard 4 in the hope it would at least arrive in 2022. Who knows!

 

[abrookesuk]

So same here and I was also told beginning of April with a build complete on the 25th May - but my dealer says he has no indication of what’s happening. Interesting…..

Build date originally mid March, moved to mid May, brought forward to 5th May completion and can has been at Emden for 5 days (or not yet scanned in the UK I hope!). So things are moving!

Good day all, after driving the same vehicle for 15+ yrs, I had a rush of blood to the head two weeks ago and went into my local Porsche garage and order a taycan or a taycan 4S. After going through the options, the salesman convinced me to order a taycan with a bigger battery as according to him, it was better value for money than the 4S. Surprisingly he also said not to bother with the full leather option as what as standard was good enough ( the dash board will be rubber), Can I have your thoughts pls ?

 

[WuffvonTrips]

Welcome to the forum. I recommend you test drive both variants (the "Taycan" variant is called RWD around here to avoid confusion), and sit in vehicles with both interior options- it's all a matter of personal preference, all of those combinations would result in a good car. Spending more gets you more, but with Porsche there's almost unlimited potential to add cost and options- browsing these forums, you'll see a lot of varied opinion on specific examples.
It's worth travelling to more than one dealer if necessary to try RWD v 4S and full leather v standard interior.

So an update on my April build slot. The original date for build complete was the 20th May (not the 25th), this is now showing as the 23rd May….so fingers crossed.

I'm Still waiting on an allocation, i put my deposit down in November of last year. Just wondering if there's anyone here using the Exeter Porsche dealership? Be good to exchange experiences re ordering allocation etc.

My initial 5K was November last year, then in January I was offered a cancellation....which I jumped at
