Panamera stuck in Baltimore

I ordered a Panamera 4S about 4 months ago which finally arrived in the US on Oct 21 but has been sitting in Porsche Quality control in the Baltimore harbor since then.

Anyone else have their cars held up in Baltimore? Any idea why?

Shouldn't be a hold up since cars are at dealers now.

launch cars

The cars the dealers have are launch cars not special ordered. The ordered cars may be held up in port now.

This isn't completely correct Rojda.

We've had 3 ordered cars come through, and delivered. (outside of the 3 "Launch Cars" we've delivered.)

In addition we've recieved our Yachting Blue 4S that was an ordered car...


They are doing a 'quality control' check. I'm assuming b/c we've had a CD Changer issue on one of our Turbo's that it 'might' be the issue. Please be patient and you'll recieve your baby soon!

Ps. I have two Panamera at port in the same hold pattern. So it's not just you.

The cars are getting software updates an quality control updates after arriving at the port. Porsche wants the vehicle to launch without the problems like we had with the 750 and A8.
