All current 911s sold out on Porsche configurator in Germany

Towards the release of 992.2...

A fellow Porsche fan I met yesterday told me that there was already movement on the German configurator (in preparation for the 992.2 announcement), so I took a look right away.

Even so, it's amazing that you all look at so many things! I admire you.

I took a look at it right away, and this is the German Porsche configurator site. First, select the "911" from the Porsche models you want to make.

The only option for the 911 model is still "Benzin" (gasoline). This will mean more options in the future, right?

For now, if you select this gasoline 911, you will be taken to a screen where you can select a more detailed 911 model, but here you will see a warning message in blue:

I can't read German at all, so I asked Google to translate this into Japanese.

The results are here↓

"The new Porsche 911 is in the starting phase and will soon be available to order in the configurator."

Oh oh.

"Therefore, the models listed will no longer be available as new, configurable vehicles and will be shown as 'sold out.'"

Let's see... I took a closer look and noticed blue annotations in the top right corner of each model.

What are you saying, Google Sensei?

"sold out"

Oh oh.

When I clicked on this "Sold Out" button, the following message was displayed:

I see, so the 992.1 has already been marked as "sold out" on the configurator in preparation for the 992.2.

Well, it's certainly true that it's unlikely that any new production slots will be available from now on, so this is only natural.

All Carrera models are sold out.

Cabriolet model too.

Targa and Turbo.

Turbo Cabriolet, GT model...

Well, this is to be expected, but the Dakar and S/T are also sold out.

As a result, all current 911 models were marked as "sold out."

By the way, this "sold out" message does not appear on configurators in the United States or Japan.

I think that some items were marked as "sold out" on the Japanese configurator a while ago, but now those marks have disappeared and at the bottom it says:

"This configurator shows the model lineup and available options, but does not indicate that all models are available for purchase at that time. Please check with your local Porsche Center for availability of purchase or ordering."

It is annotated as follows.

When I see words like "sold out," I can't help but think, "Oh, so I can't buy it anymore," even though it's a little late now. I miss the days when I was excited and couldn't wait any longer when the 992.1 was announced.

Time keeps passing by.
