Estimated Delivery Dates - What's Yours?

TM3 performance and iX3 are cars with absolutely different pricetag. That is what I spoke about - when you pay so much for a Porsche, you would probably expect something special. That is why I went for version with push to pass and active ride. I did not want to live in the situation when we pay soo much for base model and then say - hmm, but its almost the same as other much cheaper suvs. But honestly, in the beginng I also wanted to buy the base one. But then driving hundrets kms with Macan 4S I knew its perfect and I do not want something quite slower.

but its subjective, I do absolutely agree. Everyone can buy whatever he/she wants for their money

The Macan 4S is an absolute no brainer, had two (both lemons due to electrical gremlins unfortunately), and well worth 2k extra (with my spec) as compared to Macan 4. Ordered GTS (just for the looks) to replace but switched to Cayenne base immediately after press release. In most cases S is the Goldilocks car and the car Porsche intended to build. Wished for more HP (probably many Cayenne base customers do as well) but price gap is just not justifiable for my use.

Everyone is entitled to have a different opinion and need for exceptional acceleration. In my case I‘m buying a Cayenne for it being a luxury and easily accessible SUV type car, not for exceptional acceleration. That said, the Cayenne EV Coupe is faster 0 to 60 & 49 to 74 mph than a current Cayenne S ICE - which was never considered to be a slouch. The era of EV’s has brought with it exceptional acceleration with the result that SUV’s have better 0 to 60 times than an M5.

Insurance is becoming a real issue in the UK - Matt-Taycan tried to get a quote for a Turbo and Porsche Insurance declined to quote as he didn’t have ‘bollards or a gate’. Other insurance companies are quoting Base & ‘S’ but not Turbo’s. Insurance in other countries may of course be different.

In the UK, drivers and driving are very real targets for easy income, mostly controlled by cameras and so the likelihood of ‘points’ on the license is greater than it has ever been - and one thing for sure is that points make the insurance policies far more expensive or even unavailable.

I certainly see your reason for wanting “push to pass” and greater acceleration but in my case it’s not worth at least the extra £ 15k and added insurance, when so many of our motorways have cameras and urban areas are becoming 20 mph minefields. Also, I buy my cars so residuals are a consideration - I think the depreciation on a Turbo and even the S will be a greater % than a base.

All of that ignores that my thoughts would have been entirely with your view some 15 years ago !

We'll that was the main point for me - the luxorious and comfortable. Thus I decided for an active ride. If base model offeres the active ride I would buy that version I think.

 

[Wivenhoe]

I think there may be a lot of buyers wanting active ride so Porsche earn a lot more keeping it exclusive to the more expensive models.

Yes, someone did get refused insurance on a Turbo for that reason... but it wasn't me

Sorry. Must take more care and better research. It was James C

I finally got my dealer to share the dates. Hopefully this time it sticks!

A little update on my end. I spoke with my SA today regarding the delivery, and it seems production has been delayed by about two weeks compared to the original schedule. As a result, I’ll probably not get the car until early/mid-July. (Production is finished and car is at port)

What surprised me was that, out of the entire dealership, only my car, another customer’s car, and their demo car are arriving at the same time. From what he told me, this appears to be a wider production delay, as we are once again part of the first batch coming through.

In any case, it might be worth checking with your dealer so you’re not caught off guard by any unexpected delays.

Thanks for the update

There are just fewer ships going to the US West Coast than the East Coast and I think your car might have just missed the Daedalus Leader.

FWIW, the ship you'll likely be on is Glovis Challenge, scheduled to depart Emden on June 17th and arrive in San Diego on July 17th.

Great to hear. Thanks for the info!
