UK GTS ST Update - latest

[ss782b]

I also ordered a GTS saloon at the end of Jan. Not expected this year - latest estimate is Feb ‘23. Will update if I hear anything.

Now April ‘23 as per my post in the GTS Orders UK thread.

Ordered mine in November 2021. Due to leave factory in two weeks and be at dealership mid October.

Asked for another order same spec and was told Mid 2023.

Does your car have the 12v battery fitted ? Otherwise you maybe facing a significant delay.

Still a better estimate than the GTS ST at present.

Yes it has the battery fitted.

If it's due to leave the factory in two weeks, I doubt it has even been built yet. Maybe someone can correct me, but it doesn't take over two weeks to build a Taycan. I assume you're assuming it has been built because it has a VIN, but they get allocated long before they're built.

As a data point, my Taycan was built last week, and it had no indication it was missing the 12v battery until the start of this week.

Remarkable you got an allocation as several of us placed deposits long before you.

My dealer is now saying they may get some allocations for Q1 but have many orders to fulfill. Apparently I'm 3rd but I've heard that before. I'm fully expecting/ preferring to opt for MY24 at this rate.

Doesn't the app tell you which phase the car is in - has that been checked?

Not in Holland, as far as I'm aware.

Your dealer seems to be better informed than most. I'm with you, if im offered August 2023 then ill hold back for a month or so for MY24. Hopefully the face lift will be announced shortly.

This is not the US Track Your Dream but the My Porsche App / website once your order is in play with an allocation. Available in UK so don't see why you wouldn't get similar in mainland Europe.

My dealer told me a few weeks ago that Holland gets nothing like that when I asked him if there's any way of tracking my car. I'm sure in Germany they get it, but Holland is a small market. Maybe somebody has a different experience to me who lives in Holland?

Sorry I updated my post - should be part of My Porsche if available.

I've just checked and it doesn't appear to be. There are no messages or any reference to my car. I've added the VIN, which is correct and it identifies as a 2023 Taycan, but it then asks for other info such as "proof of ownership". I see no messages relating to its progress.

Not long to go!
Is that estimate of mid 2023 for an ST? Sounds optimistic to me.

Yes, I’m hearing 18-24 months from most dealers for a GTS ST currently.

indeed! Hopefully panamera 4s EHybrid is due December aswell.

Went a bit silly on options but I’ve always said Porsche spelt backwards is options.
