This is more of a pity party post. I have a friend who put his order on for a custom Porsche. He put his order in over summer. Nov, he got a text that his freeze date was coming soon. The text in Dec that production started, then he texted me this morning that he got a notification on the Porsche App that his car has arrived at the Port for shipping. He can then use his app to track the journey. Then he got a hype video showing how his car was made.


I spend a large portion of my day talking to my clients about client experience. Porsche in my eyes knocks the cover off the ball.

Here is my Pity Party, put my order for QM in April and have gotten nothing but radio silence. Remember when they did those AI videos for early orders? They stopped those post first global rounds. No clue on production, no clue on delivery date. We have to do the tracking once we ask for VIN. All I can say, more companies should embrace what Porsche is doing. Costs them nothing but brings people along for the ride.
 
I wouldn't say it "costs them nothing", but in the grand scheme of things it's pretty close to nothing. The good will, inclusion, 'part of the family' feels... all priceless.

I'm guessing Porsche won't tell him it's still "In Production" while he's tearing it up at DE events! :rolleyes:
 
My Grenadier (that I picked up in March '24) is still in "ordered" status ;) Porsche does it right for sure!
 
Nothing worse than being ghosted on a car order!!!! P car orders are awesome the Germany experience is awesome, so is the ALT one too. BMW does great job too, well did I'm not sure if they brought back the Munich pickup again or not after covid..... The new apps that allow you to follow the build is cool though how accurate can be questioned. lol I think Ineo's being such a new company really for low impact to bottom line could have had an app built for this. The data is already there in production systems its about parsing it out sending it securely to another API to then show the customer. Could you imagine a order pickup, factory tour and a off road learning trip.... That would be sweet.
