Yes, the dealer told me when I ordered in July ‘21 that their next build slot for a CT4S was end of October/ beginning of November with delivery expected by Christmas or early in the new year.
I would say either they either put other customers who ordered after I did in front of me in the queue or the chip shortage hit hard.
Then production took from April 16th to July 31st, 3 ½ months rather than the usual couple of weeks - presumably parts shortage though I dropped Bose and racetex B pillar to expedite things :( but the car is now mouldering in storage without its 12V battery.
You may well get yours before me and it will be a 2023 model too if being built now.
Best of luck!

Bumping this thread,
Deposit Nov 21. Built, but held in QA for past 7 weeks. No visibility into delivery.

But... here's the kicker...
A colleague in Canada ordered same spec September 22. His is currently on a boat in the Atlantic on its way to East Coast USA. Thanks Porsche.

Ordered my Taycan in May 2022 (via Lex salary sacrifice).

Lex driver portal is showing Dec 2023 “stock date” but supplying dealer (Cambridge) is advising Jan 2024 ?

I guess that Canada get far less orders than the UK - still a long time to wait but don’t think you are the longest wait Sadly.

A lot can happen in the space of six months. Especially the next six. You may find yourself suddenly at the front of the queue

GTS ST ordered in April 22, via salary sacrifice, but had a nightmare getting the order accepted so spoke directly to my local dealer. (Mid-Sussex).

They have been amazing, they are treating the order like a direct customer (which I was told will mean I won't get bumped constantly like normal SS orders).

They've let me take out the GTS demonstrator for a few runs, one of the loans was for the whole weekend!

Been told it is on target for April 23. Apparently they have a higher allocation that expected for 2023.

I'm hoping that I'll be in to finalise the spec in the next month or so if an April delivery is remotely a possibility!

going via Lex too and ordered Oct 22 with Cambridge advising end of Feb 2024!

clearly added a longer wait for fleet orders it seems as when I called them direct to enquire (as a direct customer), they said Q4 23 for delivery.

I think the wait lists will drop as people drop out due to credit crunch and increases in finance (11.9%)

Porsche will also be making more as there would be a lag between production line and suppliers due to Ukraine etc.

My GTS is due next year but i think I’m going to get moved up the list soon as some have cancelled I’m told.

You're right, a friend recently enquired (as a direct customer) at Porsche Glasgow and was advised delivery around 8-10 months.

I genuinely believe us salary sacrifice peasants are at the end of the queue!

I placed an order for a GTS ST on launch day Sept/Oct 21. I knew I'd be in for a wait when I put my deposit down so have just left the dealer to it, got my allocation 2 weeks ago and have my fingers crossed for a March delivery.

Thats much quicker than most people on here including myself. Many are way beyond the 13/14-month time frame.
