Hey
Wanted to revive this thread. OP, did you end up getting these carbon fiber mirror caps installed? Did the dealer do it?
Also I am curious if the OEM part from Sun Coast also includes the lower housing cover. I the description says it can be painted gloss black but if you don’t paint it...
My TYD just updated the dealer arrival date from July 15th to July 1st (tomorrow?!) - I reached out to my SA and will follow up on this thread tomorrow if this actually happens. I sure hope it does.
I'm getting my GTS from Redwood City too! Glovis Summit arrived at Benicia on Sunday 6/26. I still haven't gotten to Port Processing in TYD yet, and delivery date still says 7/15. I confirmed with my SA there is no stop sale as of several days ago, so I'm hoping my GTS arrives a lot sooner than...
Yup, my boarding date also just got delayed to June 17th. So unfortunately we are in the same boat here (pun intended). I guess Emden is really backlogged. Or perhaps we’ll get lucky and end up on Summit, as I’ve heard others in this forum report a similar experience of getting on an earlier...
My GTS arrived at Emden last Thursday on 5/19. Its expected to depart for Benicia on 5/27 according to TYD.
I came across VW’s shipping schedule and I see that the departure date for Benicia is 5/31 with a 6/28 arrival on the Glovis Summit. The dealer arrival is expected on 7/15.
In case...
Anyone here also expecting a delivery to California in July? My GTS arrived at Emden on May 19 and I was hoping we could do some detective work to figure out which ship we‘re going to be on.
So far my best guess is Glovis Summit, which according to this schedule is supposed to get to Emden on...
Here's my most recent timeline for my 2022 GTS Sedan:
Pre-order Deposit placed 11/9 ✅
Order created 4/6 ✅ (The order creation date kept changing, so likely irrelevant)
Order Locked 3/30 ✅
Scheduled for production 4/8 ✅
Start of Production 5/6 ✅
Production completed 5/17 ✅
In Transit to Emden...
My GTS sedan started production last Friday (build code PND4TKM5)! So far, TYD has been very accurate. When I placed my deposit last November before the world turned upside down, my original delivery estimate was June 24th. So despite the chaos, I've been fortunate enough to only have a 3-week...
My GTS sedan build was locked in yesterday. I’m still seeing production scheduled on 4/15, starting 5/6, and completing on 5/13. Before the chaos, the ETA was 6/24 and has since moved to 7/15.
Not sure if this was already mentioned, but my TYD message was recently updated with more specific info about a contingency plan in the event of a total loss. They’re increasing capacity to accommodate replacement cars. In other words, the delay might not be too long even if all the cars were...
Hey NorCal friends, I’m looking for a reputable vendor for PPF and ceramic coat installation for my incoming Taycan GTS, preferably in the San Mateo area. Anyone have recommendations?
Also, is installing PPF on the windshield a good idea?
Thanks to chronic construction work and an...
Porsche Redwood City. They are marking up pre-configured Taycans which are arriving in April, but custom builds which are first arriving in June are not marked up. I’m pretty certain their waitlist is full for 2023 by now, though. Either way, I don‘t think all dealers got allocations this week...
Decided to pull the trigger on Neptune blue with a Chalk/black interior. Appreciate the pointers on the technology package as well since you get ACC “for free” with it.
Final build here.
Maybe not all dealers got allocations at the same time. Which dealer are you working with? I don’t have a history with mine and it was a first come first serve type of situation based on the time the initial deposit was received.
Yeah it may make sense to swap out the automatic charge port cover in favor of the technology package and end up netting a just few hundred extra bucks. The only reasons I opted out of the HUD is that I heard it’s not as good as BMW’s and it also covers the instrument cluster, which takes away...
