I just checked mine - CP08 has gone from 20/8 to 27/8. I believe thats the code for build complete, time will tell though as dates seem to be continuously jumping back.....

All to do with COC issues which is causing significant delays on all Porsches ATM even Macans etc

Some UK cars are being shipped / in their to the country. I wonder whether they will be “grounded” at the dealerships as it seems to be the case for that AM Green PTS Batch 2 in Belgium... awaiting CoC

That car has been at dealers for 4 weeks if the discussion on rennlist is to be believed

It's all a bit frustrating bearing in mind the last wait started back in April 2018 after not getting an allocation then.

By the time the car arrives I don't think there will be much salt free pot hole less driving tome left this year banghead

There are a few positive things to factor in: 1) cars are being delivered, 2) maybe without COC meaning they will be perfectly parked at our car dealers and not registered, 3) as a consequence of which we won’t pile on miles thus increasing their value well beyond the 993 and 994 GT3, 4) meaning we will take delivery of a classic, a 991 with 71 plates! The only elephant in the room is: what about our driving pleasure?!

Cars are starting to filter through, including Speedster's too.... I believe the embargo will be relaxed early next month for deliveries to begin. Ultimately a lot of cars are in the pending state and will arrive well into the winter months.

Regardless, the wait will be more that worth it!

Running out of mag wheels or... carbon steering wheels! At the end of the day: we love these cars don’t we? Just found my letter when I was allocated my 991.1 3RS or remember the call for the 2 RS. Too special! Porsche are also one of the fewer and fewer brands which seem to produce pure drivers cars which hold value pretty well for the GTs!

Yes but miss my .1rs had to give it back in may seems like forever without the beast
Just cheered my self up by looking at how much 650 & 720 have dropped in price
Agreed the wait will be worth it

Oooooo be careful what you say about deprecation on Mac 650's and 720's I got banned from the Mac section for pointing that out yikes You have a point though,we can wait patiently for our 3RS's or run out and impatiently buy a 720 and blow our brains blah

They apparently ran out of bits for the Heritage Edition Speedster which was apparently withdrawn from availability before some people had the chance to spec their cars.

This is correct. Heritage became even more special as a result.
