Congrats, so close!! Love the color/wheel combo!!
Sounds like the audio amp as in Bose or Burmester. Both have been reported missing in a bunch of Taycans lately due to supply chain issues. Fingers crossed it doesn't take too long.
100%! Had the same experience with our i3. Such a PITA. The worst part was closing the doors on the passenger side after the kids got out of the car and ran away, while I was still in the driver's seat.
Let's just realize that pretending the world comes to an end because of a few random delivery delays actually means anything - in the grand scheme of things... that said, I couldn't be more excited about picking up mine in exactly 3 weeks from today!!
IT'S HAPPENING! FInal milestone unlocked today, after my car sat at Benicia Port since early September waiting for some TLC (I guess 12V batt). Pickup is scheduled in 3 weeks from today. Couldn't be more excited!!!
Me as well. Just like @timo , had PECLA delivery date of 10/28 that got rescheduled to 11/17. Car has been sitting in Benicia since 9/16. This morning, TYD updated my arrival date at PECLA to 11/4, so there's hope!
Plus, it'll always be a grey (re)import with a US VIN, so when it's time to sell, you'd take a hit there as well. This was less of a concern when the EUR was still stronger than the USD, but nowadays it'd be cleaner to sell your car in the US, change that bundle of $$'s into a bigger bundle of...
Same here: I was able to set up the car in the My Porsche app and it shows the green dot. At the same time, my car is being held back at the port for another 3 weeks (presumably because of no 12V battery), it has been sitting there since 9/16. So I don't think that green dot = *final* 12V battery.
Here's the kicker: When I asked about the delay, this was their response:
"Unfortunately, later today I was talking with the port and we decided that it will be more convenient to move your schedule."
I know we have bigger problems to solve than this, but WTF?!

Not sure what to read into this: My Taycan was supposed to be en route to my dealer (well, PEC LA) on 9/30. Benicia port processing has been complete since 9/16.
As of today, 10/5, car is still sitting in Benicia, and arrival at dealer is still estimated to be 9/30.
I'm guessing no 12V battery?
That stinks, really sorry to read that!
FWIW, while my car made it to the West Coast, it's still in Benicia waiting to be shipped to PEC LA. Per TYD, car should be shipped today. Let's see, not holding my breath. My pickup date is only in 4 weeks from today, so they still have some time to get...
