Update from CEO of Porsche Cars North America

[tmrqs]

Received this earlier, did others get something similar - not only in North America (which I expect) but other countries too?

The video is this one:

I received this as noted- I appreciate the thought - but I'm kinda "meh" on this and really don't feel it adds any value - I'd prefer a concrete update on my build/delivery status with dates/time options - but they clearly have time to produce high-production-value pointless marketing videos while they sh*t themselves trying to get a whole bunch of Macan EV's not to have hideous software problems for a Sept. 20th roll out…

the Porsche logo's toilet paper they plan to send me will be necessary when they sh*t the bed will delivery on these things…

I feel the focus is "off" for a product that hasn't shipped yet.

but I'm feeling feisty today.

My guess it’s to prep us for delivery delays. It’s funny, when I did the test ride at the PCMA ATL the instructor was pretty confident they were offering the ride-along to appease the masses because they expected delays.

I’m personally ok with a delay if they let me change my locked-in build.

I think mine is already built and may be "on the ground" somewhere - maybe even on a ship - but accurate status is hard to come by.

Probably. I was told build on or around 1st week of August. Perhaps we're litterally in the same boat?

Our turbo is on the Siem Confucious outside of Jacksonville dodging storm DEBBY. ETA was tomorrow morning 6 AUG, but the cars in port may be floating!
