I think they will be motivated to get as many through customs as possible. Fingers crossed!

Mine went through Freeport. Arrived at the port on a Saturday, cleared customs on Wednesday, arrived at the dealership on Thursday. The media reports say the tariffs will officially be announced at 4pm Eastern tomorrow, and "collections will begin" on Thursday. So, it sounds like you'll be okay...

I got TWO keychains . . . AND a yeti-style coffee mug (hand wash only!)

Good morning from Texas!

My dealer took a charge deposit? ?‍♂️

I got the wheel and tire package for $2k. 8 wheel fixes and unlimited tire replacements for damaged tires on my leased car seemed like a good idea. Lots of construction + roads are bad here, and I’ve had a flat or two from a nail or screw almost annually. If that pattern holds, plus at least one...

3/30-3/31 should not make a huge difference, as customs doesn’t work Sundays at the port, as far as I am aware. I think you have a real chance; good luck!

Good morning! Picked up Saturday; loving it!

So, after one day of ownership of my new 4S, here's my early verdict: I'm not sorry! Mine has the TB leather interior, Burmester stereo, rear axle steering, PTV, Innodrive, passenger screen, sport seats - just about all the extras, other than HUD and 22" wheels. Burmester is excellent, though...

I saw an aventurine green one on my way to pick up my aventurine green 4S yesterday. That was the third one I'd seen in Dallas (Yellow Turbo, Copper Ruby non-turbo being the other 2). Mine makes 4 since I started looking out for them in January.

I saw a Volcano Grey in the wild in Colorado earlier this month. It looked phenomenal. Great color - the one I saw was a total head-turner. To be fair, this car is just great looking, regardless of color. There are a couple of colors that I like a lot less than the others, but even in those...

Incoming!

My SA just texted me to ask me to come in to do the deal today (even though car's not ready yet), saying "I'd hate for you to be affected by the tariff adjustments." If he's being truthful, then that could mean even vehicles that clear customs before the tariffs go into effect could still be...

Woo-Hoo! Cleared customs and on its way to the dealership! Hopefully I will be able to get it by Saturday. . . ?

I'm still waiting on confirmation that mine has cleared customs, but in a promising sign, my SA is starting to get serious about working through the financial details of the actual transaction. Hoping to hear today that it's finally on the truck to Dallas. . . Seems like the MyPorsche App is...

Got confirmation today that my 4S is waiting on clearing customs. Porsche app gave March 25 - April 5 as the range for when it will be en route to Dallas. No way it takes more than a week to clear, right? RIGHT???

FWIW, although it is not the color I ordered, I have to say that the copper ruby is really underrated. You gotta see it IRL. So lush , especially in bright sunlight.

Update, my car's ship, the SIEM CONFUCIUS, is due to arrive at Freeport, TX at 4am tomorrow morning! Fingers crossed that it clears customs quickly. . .

I saw a copper ruby 4S w/ 22” macan sport wheels in Dallas the other day. Gorgeous, stunning color. So rich/lush in bright sunlight. The wheels looked incredible too. Hoping I don’t end up regretting getting mine in aventurine green W/ the Macan design 21” wheels!

My take: it is far easier to understand their behavior once you know who is paying them. IOW, $300M in support for Trump’s campaign has bought Musk/Tesla a lot of protection against competitive EVs. While I am not saying that Teslas compete with Porsches on an apples-to-apples basis, certainly...
