Hard to do that since VIN is stamped into multiple places during assembly.A VIN is assigned as soon as it rolls of the end of the assembly line and is matched to an order. Not before.

Yeah, have to temper our expectations. Tesla's are "premium" electric vehicles, not "luxury" electric vehicles in wording they've always used ;-) Our BMW is nicer, and I'd say even our new Ford F150 King Ranch is more luxurious and comfortable with features...Just wanted to report back. Took delivery yesterday. This is my first Tesla but 3rd EV. My other car is an x7.
Initial impressions, luxury does not compare. Will drive it a bit more to understand and get comfortable.
Delivery was a breeze. Car came with a couple of scratches on the front fender, have a service appointment for it. Have not pushed the car yet, for 0-60 etc.
The yoke was not a problem at all, was able to use the indicators no issues there. Initially had to figure where left and right was, that’s about it.
But from what I see, it’s a stark improvement from previous S’es. Ride quality and cabin noise are notably better.
Good luck to the folks waiting. Saw quite a few S’es getting ready for delivery at Fremont, fwiw.
Cheers!
Pretty sure he meant assigned to a person and not physically placed on the vehicle.Hard to do that since VIN is stamped into multiple places during assembly.
To clarify....what I mean, and what SAs confirm, is that a VIN is assigned to an order holder once the car rolls off the assembly line.Hard to do that since VIN is stamped into multiple places during assembly.
I don't doubt that revenue grabbing happens, but in the case of Plaids, the reason why the website shows delivery for December is simply because there is existing inventory of them from the initial batch of Plaids that were built. I got this information from my SA at Tesla.Just noticed that while the timeline for MSLR delivery is now June 2022 for 21” wheels and October 2022 for 19” wheels, order a Plaid with either wheel config is December delivery.
That should end any question of supply chain issues for 19” wheels. It’s all a revenue grab.
Or you can get any other premium color (not white) and 19 wheels with June EDD, that's slightly cheaper than 21 wheels.Just noticed that while the timeline for MSLR delivery is now June 2022 for 21” wheels and October 2022 for 19” wheels, order a Plaid with either wheel config is December delivery.

Same thing happened to me last Friday. Before that i had a window of 11/28-12/26.EDD updated today from 12/2-12/16 to February. Hoping it will go back soon and get a VIN. We will see.
Total BS.He said there was a server crash a week ago and thats why a lot of people are seeing February dates.

From my observation it is clearly a revenue grab. I think Tesla is going isn’t in any hurry to flush out pre price increase cars until after the end of 4th quarter this year. I have seen posts mentioning that Tesla isn’t doing this but like you observed getting a Plaid in a month is all the evidence I need.Just noticed that while the timeline for MSLR delivery is now June 2022 for 21” wheels and October 2022 for 19” wheels, order a Plaid with either wheel config is December delivery.

Total BS.
Why does Tesla even keep these people on the payroll? I’m not able to tell what their actual job function is.
More than massaging seats I would like to see soft close doors. It makes a ton of sense tbh.Indeed. ...But would massaging seats be too much to ask for? I mean, really...
When did they start issuing 2022 VIN’s?I am scheduled for pickup of my 2022 for Saturday.
