Zuffenhausen Production closing next week

You’re forgetting the ship catching on fire and sinking with a bunch of our cars that now need reproduced….

It's not all bad though:

Just checked TYD.

was originally scheduled to start build on 18FE actual 22FE

was originally scheduled build complete 04MR moved to 11MR

just check this morning 03MR and my TYD has changed to production complete, ready for transport. I know this is a first world problem (especially in the light of what’s happening now) but thank you Jesus!

I wonder if it has a wiring harness on it…

Might be better without it!

It's like rain on your wedding day...
It's a free ride when you're already there...
It's like 10k spoons when all you need is knife...
It's like getting your Taycan somewhere in March, June, 202x...

I'm getting a bit Ironic

A lot of things are happening in this world and I keep telling myself it's a first world problem but still it kinda...

Sorry if already posted…

Obviously it’s frustrating for those of us awaiting cars, but a few more weeks/months delay are insignificant when you realise the reasons for the delay - it certainly puts things into perspective.

Yeah, first world problems.

The Taycan production cut-off date is today. It looks like the 911s get a couple more weeks.

I am the first one to understand the world has bigger things going on than Porsche trying to figure out its production schedule, and it seems they still have not gotten it figured out quite yet. Yesterday, my car showed it had hit the freeze date. Today TYD shows my freeze date as today. The estimated days until arrival is still counting down properly, so who the hell knows what is going on.

I would love to have my new CT4s for early in the summer since I would like to go find someplace remote in Idaho or Montana to hide out in for a while. The world has been in worse straits than now, but we have never had the glut of immediate information accessible as we currently do.

Between reading about tragedy in Ukraine, COVID, the supply chain that is in tatters, the fiasco this week at Rivian, ships catching fire in the Atlantic, and now this production delay news coming out of Porsche, I am not sure there is enough good marijuana in Colorado to help distract me.

Anyone heard anything from US dealers? It seems like the posted pic of internal email could be specific to a different market outside of the US.

Great post, could not agree more. I am waiting also, however if a tyrant in the Kremlin is deposed, and Ukraine is free wonderful!

I received conflicting information from my sales manager this afternoon. Did anyone get confirmation of the production hold from their dealer?

I asked my dealer about it and got two messages about an hour apart. The first saying they hadn't heard anything about a production stop, and then the second that it only affected Leipzig.

I received an email from my dealer this evening saying that they had called Porsche NA and the production stop for Taycan as of 3/3 (or Zuffenhausen) was not confirmed. Not sure what to believe anymore - I’ll just sit back, relax and enjoy the show…
