Looks like cars are starting to move....latest in the news today. Porsche expects to have most of the cars sitting at US ports worked thru by end of March they hope!

We'll see guys as cars start to be released and appear in dealerships shortly.

Mine entered into production on 3/13. So it’s being built as we speak - feels a little more real at this point.

Looks like things are moving....for sure. Mine entered production the week earlier. Still moving along I guess and I think finishes this weekend or early next week!

So my e-hybrid started production Jan. 23rd, and is currently to complete production Mar.25th. This according to TYD. If it could complete Mar. 22nd, then it could catch the next ship leaving Mar. 27th, ironically called Emden. Getting close now!
It's a task to manage Porsche passion with Porsche patience.

Mine is also scheduled to complete 3/25. Seems like no matter when they started (for NA) - this is the date they finish production (for this batch). Just an observation. My delivery date still shows 6/28. I am taking delivery at the PEC LA.

Mine too shows June 28 also but car is scheduled to arrive stateside end of April/early May so maybe just maybe Porsche has padded the release dates a bit.....maybe 30 days to account for all the holds and parts delays but so far don't think any hybrids have reached US shores AND been released to any US customers. Could be wrong on that one though...who knows.

ENCT

My SA told me that once the hybrids arrive they will undergo the EPA testing. Once that is done and approved they will be released. After diesel gate I think the EPA is in no rush to help out VW. Hopefully they get things done sooner, I do agree the dates are padded a bit.

ENCT

Turbo Hybrid is built, hopefully the carb testing goes quickly.

Build completed Fri 21 March...guess someone wanted to be done early and enjoy the weekend since before that it wasn't due till Monday 25th! LOL

rodsky

Did you get build complete? Congrats. FYI March 21 was Thursday

Mine is still scheduled to be complete 3/25 - so yours was 10 cars ahead of mine on the line..

X5toCayenne

Mine was complete on the 21st too. The next date was going to be at the port on the 25th but that and all other dates have disappeared.

Electric Lizard

That’s when mine was finished, too.

I think that the guy who installs the hood badges returned from vacation on Thursday.

ENCT

Mine is on #6, your Porsche is on its way to the German port. The rest of the dates say not available.

Porsche Newbee

Mine also complete March 21. No new dates other than SA commission schedule which shows arriving port Emden March 22, exiting Emden March 29 and arriving in Halifax April 19. Then onto a train headed for Toronto

mdrobc1213

Yes I got the email on Fri evening saying it was completed 21 March...yes that was Thursday. Opps. LOL

Hmm...my dates are still there. Supposed to head to port on 21st and arrive 22nd March then depart Emden now on 6 April instead of 29 March as prior so some dates are changing. Arrival at dealership is still late June which I suspect is due to EPA clearance hold on hybrids at this time. Hope my car was produced with the correct ECU chip also. Planning for end of June but anything ahead or early is what cool too like getting extra gravy with ones meal!
Or they ran out of badges and didn't get them back in till Thur. When did yours start production again? Mine was 3/7,
If you know the ship you can track it via various online trackers just google them... I've used Vessel Tracker and Marine Traffic and Fleet Mon in the past with pretty accurate results even on their free site.
So kool....what is the time for the train to Toronto and then delivery? Hope its not a slow train to Toronto!
