I put my deposit down at the start of 2019 and was expecting my car in March but it kept getting delayed so much so that it got caught by the pandemic shut down. It eventually completed manufacture around the 20th May and has been stuck in a holding location ever since.Yup... I'm one of those Sept '19 chaps waiting. Can only assume mine has been their for so long its hemmed in deep at the Emden parking lot!
Hay-ho.... I'm off on holiday for a few weeks of distraction. Hopefully when I get back, she will be finally waiting for me to collect.
Same here !!
This is frustrating but what makes me really annoyed is the fact that cars manufactured more recently are getting shipped and delivered to customers. It really is a poor process when the first cars into the holding facility become the last cars out. Porsche need to get this sorted as that is completely unfair and unacceptable. My dealer suspects they won't see my car until late August which means it will be a September delivery to me. So what would normally take 4 or 5 weeks from the car going into production to it being delivered to the customer is going to take ~6 months.
It may as well be a used car because things start to rust and seize up being sat around for so long. As for the battery conditioning it also can't be great having a fully depleted battery which I suspect it will have been by now. Combined with a generally poor dealer experience it's not a good situation at all.
