Owners of the new Panamera, had their cars sitting at the port for months waiting for the EPA to give Porsche their clearance. Then, Porsche could schedule the launch date. Very frustrating.

There’s no port in this case as they’re produced on the USA, correct? Also, compared to any other launch, didn’t they specifically do the pre-order so you can get one before the dealer allocations? If not, WTF was the point of all of this pre-order BS??
