I waited 7 weeks for a headlamp for a 2017 Panamera out of Germany. It’s absurd to think a newer car would have parts readily available.

I have you all beat. It took 11 months to get the drivers side quarter panel for my Cayman after it was tagged in an accident.

What was done with that car during the 11 month wait period? Dealer kept it or?

My uncle’s new BMW M550i needed a new wiring harness at 15k miles. He was in a loaner for two months. Then he had an engine issue at 20k miles. New engine had him in a loaner for another month LOL.

Currently waiting for a windshield from Germany. On week 3 or 4, I've lost count.

Reading all these posts kinda disheartening. Never knew Porsche has a Tesla problem.

Seems like they are not able to scale up production appropriately. That is def a red flag if i have keep a car in a garage for 3-4 months in a year or drive a loaner all that time.

I mean if one has a Gt3 or similar they are not going to give you a similar or higher for all that period correct?

I would be massively pissed if i had to wait for so long for parts,

Esp for problems that might render the car non drivable, essentially it would be like making car payments for a car you dont have. That is a BIG no for me. Disappointing

Most Porsche dealers do not give equal cars as loaners. If you come in with a GT3 for service, the policy is you get what they have available. If you are a GT customer, you may get some preference.
