I had a minor damage under the side skirt. The dealer didn't tell me but I happened to catch a photo of that side before I took delivery and drove it home. I found it a week later and they had no problem ordering the part to replace... they actually don't even want to talk about it. I think it may have been from the pre delivery inspection and must have hit the lift arm or something similar. since it's a gloss black part, I hope it's just an easy replacement.

I'm glad they told you about it.. I had a similar issue happen with a EQE AMG SUV. I declined the repair and ended up ordering a Macan.. 9 months later here I am!

I know it can be upsetting but at least you didn't pay for the car and can walk away. I think you should reject this one and get a 2025 model.

Our SA called last night. They heard from the port that it was just a scratched rear bumper. Porsche is airfreighting a new one from Germany. The estimated port departure date is Oct 25. Might have it for Halloween if the software installation goes smoothly. Fingers crossed.
