Order / Production / Delivery Milestones …how accurate are they ?

[Throb]

When you reach the last milestone, the dealer will push a message to Activate your new car. Once you activate the car a new icon will appear on the My Porsche app with links to the Porsche Connect features, charging information, etc. The old icon with the milestones will disappear.

We'll see what happens. This is my fourth Porsche, and we don't have track your dream in the Netherlands. I suspect the dealer will do something but it will just be in the background.

The activation code must be sent from the dealer. I went through this for my Cayenne Coupe EV delivery the other week, and again today for my upcoming 911 delivery next week.

Yes but I don’t think my dealer even knows where the car is ….it’ll be rolling of the transporter in their yard before he even realises it’s been built

We hat a chat about it a while ago, maybe in Macan forum. Porsche dealers/ sales team are not the most responsive. They keep on telling buying a Porsche is an emotional decision so they should live up to it on their end too. There is nothing wrong requesting updates from your salesperson.

For those that have had delivery what were the rough timescales from build slot allocation to delivery?

I was worried they were going to take it off …rather than upgrade …if they do I won’t be happy …surely they should have given an option

Sorry I can’t help on that. I added the car whilst it was being built with no prob - early cars couldn’t get TMD so I hoped that may have overcome it. When I put the vin I even got a graphic of the correct colour car.

After my sales guy did something, I now have my car added to my app, and I can check the options it has fitted. All is good. It has the Parking Assist with 3D as per the 2026 model year.

All being well, I should be collecting it next Saturday.

And no doubt driving it this time next week. Hope all goes well.

Haven’t had it delivered but almost ….id say 4 months

Guess my early Jan delivery is unlikely based on that time frame then.

Allocation 8 May, delivered 23 September.

Well there’s a difference from build slot allocation to the actual build slot.

From my actual build to delivery at Sheerness looks like about 5 weeks. So if you’ve been allocated a build in December then January should be possible

No build allocation yet. The lease company is indicating an early January delivery. I’m trying to work back and figure out roughly when I’d need a build slot for that to happen. Placed my order in Feb this year, based on a 24 week lead time, and it’s currently looking like 48 weeks if not more.
Been tempted to cancel the order a couple of times but there’s not much else out there that I fancy, or has a quicker lead time.
Can get into a base Cayenne EV in a month but I want the total over the topness of the Turbo.

Mine started actual build 16 Sept, so same approx 5 weeks from then to delivery.

Over @ Rennlist the folks are saying that allocations for MY 2027 Turbos are hard to come by. Maybe that's just for us in the U.S., but I wouldn't think so.
