I stand corrected, I was told this by the service chap at my dealer when I was talking to him about the 718 GTS. Mind you he wasn’t the mechanic just front desk.,

Anyway my C2S finally went to V260 status last week so I am just waiting to hear when it completes production.
Properly excited after all the waiting and delays!
That is awesome @MK911 !

Do you have some cool pics from production line?

Hi Pivo - yes exciting times but I have not had any photos yet. I check about 10 times a day - just can’t help myself.
I get the feeling the cars can stay at V260 for a while as mine has been 6 days now. My dealer did say the system can be somewhat inaccurate and not always 100% up to date. Cross fingers it’s this week though as knowing your car is actually built will feel great!
My wife is praying also - as she says I have done her head in over the whole process and has banned me from ordering another Porsche for at least five years! How unreasonable is that! 😄

When I get my 911 C2S I will keep it until I can’t get in and out :-/

You sound exactly like I was when waiting for mine, and your wife sounds just like mine too lol. I've had my car now coming up to 2 weeks and I can tell you, it's worth the wait. smile

Exciting times ahead.

My car is at V300 status and has finished production, just awaiting transport to Emden. Still no build photos - not sure how long they take to come through?

Hi Dixy, i ask my salesman for an update and he sends me a screenshot of their order system. It contains the V codes and expected completion date etc.
Your chap can certainly do this for you also.

The update from my salesman was last Thursday and the car was still showing in the compound at the factory. I’m hoping it has now arrived at Emden, but not sure when it’s due into the UK? Will be down to the shipping schedules.
My app is still at stage 3 with no photos of the build.
I’ll check in tomorrow with my salesman and see where it is.

Now this is real, @MK911 , your 911 looks menacing, being assembled in low-light!
