Has anybody whose car was in storage in Germany awaiting a 12V battery had their car delivered yet?

They will be painted yes, they will be yellow in my case. They will take the brakes off, ship them to germany, they will get painted in germany and shipped back to Belgium and fitted back onto the car (takes approx 1 - 2 weeks of time).
Got a price of this ? Will have to talk with my salesperson then :mad: ! Thanks for the info .

It might be more expensive but I want to take my car into delivery and not have to go through anything anymore afterwards, I want it to be finished when I pick it up, no more adjustments after that unless it goes into maintenance and I don't have the car anyways.

I'm also having Porsche do my XPEL stealth wrap, that is also more expensive than somewhere else but they assured me they will mind the small details and deliver superb quality job. Sometimes paying a bit more is worth it then in my opinion.

It's not just painting the brakes though; it's also replacing the small details like screws in matching color and Porsche inscription etc. It will be done by Porsche and then I don't have to worry about the quality either, it will be top notch.

Hello , unfortunately we in Belgium don't have that option ...:confused:
Did you receive a mail from Porsche with the VIN number or do you got it from your dealer ? I'm still in waiting process ;-)

You don't have the option to use the My Porsche app???
Without you won't be able to do a lot of things with your Taycan, like monitoring charging etc.
I downloaded it onto my phone, asked my dealer for the order number and followed the process on it. It showed the VIN number at some stage of the manufacture which I put into My Porsche to get even more information - which wasn't much actually.
I still haven't got the car, the app shows it was finished 31 July but apparently no 12V battery so still not delivered.

In Belgium we can of course use the Porsche Connect app for all the same features as anyone else, except for tracking the car through it's build and transport. I'm not sure why not, but it happens to be like that. My best guess it's the importer (D'Ieteren) blocking this feature...
Anyway my CT should be on transport by now, with a 12V battery (apparently it rolled out of the factory on September 16th). So I'm glad I will take delivery very soon of my car and get some paint protection (unfortunately another week or two 🤷🏽‍♂️😬)

I guess it's not possible that anyone else can get pictures of my car during the building proces using my VIN?

Unfortunately, not possible. Production pictures are only available in TYD which is available for the US (and UK?) market only as far as I understand. You only have access to your car that is added to your My Porsche account in TYD and cannot search for other's vehicles with a VIN.

Only the US.
In the UK we have absolutely f*ck all unless the dealer forwards a bit of a spreadsheet they have access to - which mine doesn't.
They will look at it and tell you the current dates though but my sales rep is on holiday at present and the "retail manager" didn't return my call so the latest info I got was on 7th October where the latest date for arrival at the dealer was 25th November and occasional emails since to say no news.

We do have it in the app and on the website, but it only gives us high level dates? We definitely don’t get the detail of TYD, which they easily could imo
