Look forward to seeing the pics of your collection from the dealer! You happiness will go a little way towards alleviating my sadness!
I ordered early September and got an email from my dealer last week saying to expect a long delay still, due to Ukraine issues etc.
I'm not the worst on this...
The disparity in wait times even within the same dealer for different models is a fact, but what kind of a business model do Porsche follow which results in some models having massive order books at the factory with waits of up to a year and others just a few months?
That wouldn't make business...
Welcome to the forum, you'll be a contributor for many months to come:p
When I placed my order (6th Sept) I was told that if instead of ordering a 4S I ordered a RWD I'd get it sooner as they'd just opened another production line for RWD's due to demand.
I massively specced up a RWD (racing away...
Yeah - didn’t see that disclaimer but not surprising. Well spotted!

I'm in the same boat - sort of. Ordered early September and was given a probable del date of December. Then came the chip shortage, followed by the Ukraine issues.
I'm still stuck on the same phase I've been on for ages ... phase 2 of 5 in the My Porsche app.
I reckon if they sort the Ukraine...
Teutonic logic doesn’t explain why we Europeans don’t get the free charging the Yanks get for x-period of time with a new Taycan.

I asked my dealer to explain that and he shrugged...

In my case my dealer’s attitude all along has been one of ‘we’re doing you a big favour selling you one of our fabulous cars. Be thankful, you don’t know how lucky you are!’
So I see you own a McLaren 600LT. Thats good, when the Taycan arrives you'll be able to use the Macca as a daily runaround and keep the Taycan for special occasions
