You can arrange whatever 3rd party transportation company you want, there are plenty out there.

But last time I shipped a car, I bought a 911 in St Louis and had it shipped to Socal, it cost me around $1500 in a fully enclosed truck trailer.

For $500, choosing the PEC-LA delivery option I get:
1. Relatively secure and fully accountable shipment of the car with Porsche being fully responsible for handling it, not a 3rd party company.
2. Free lunch in their restaurant
3. 90 min of driving time in their enclosed test track behind the facility
4. An overall VIP experience when they present my car.

For that price and given how close I live to the PEC, it's a no brainer shipment decision for me.
I had PEC in LA on my order until I was told it would delay delivery by 6 weeks. They only offer it 2 days per week and there is a huge backlog. It can't be scheduled in advance b/c the cars need to be offloaded first and post-delivery corrections need to be performed before delivery to customer. That's the info I got as of a few days ago.

I know question isn't directed to me, but TYD has not updated to the same timelines as what the dealer's tracker shows.
That’s true. My dealer just told me that my Taycan is in Emden today (11-12-2021), which is well ahead of its initial date (12-03-2021). When I tracked my car online, this update was not present.

Production of my Taycan RWD 2021 was finally completed yesterday (11-07-2021) after it was ordered in May 2021. I hope I can take delivery by the end of December 2021 also rather 1/14/2022. I’ll keep you posted if I see any changes within the next couple of days.
My dealer just told me that my Taycan is in Emden today (11-12-2021), which is well ahead of its scheduled date (12-03-2021). When I tracked my car online, this update was not present though.

Did anyone have their car sit in production for 10 days? Seems long.

My 4S started production Oct 12. End was scheduled Oct 19. After entering production, it changed to Nov 26! Then, out of the blue, it finished production Oct 29. No news since then...

Not so in my case, I was contacted by PCNA's PEC delivery person while my car was still on the boat on the way to the US and I was given a selection of possible dates to scheduled my delivery experience (well out of the way of the car's arrival at Port) so I was able to schedule my delivery experience for early Dec when my car arrived early Nov.

My dealer just told me the opposite. My car shows that it is in Production and a delivery of 1/7/22, but my dealer is saying they should get it 12/31/21.

Our CT4 is still in production, started early on 11/3 (schedule was 11/5) and it‘s schedule to be completed today, but it’s still showing in production.

Wife just received email her car has completed production, so 10 days. TYD still shows start of production. So I guess that will catch up.

mine did the same thing. I got an email it was completed about an hour ago. Looks like the processes are batched vs real-time.
