[penn_]

I finally got my VIN and the final invoice. Telling me to pay now.$

what was your original order date?

 

[Stokesy]

what was your original order date?

I scrolled back, looks like it was 11th Jan.

 

[Ormaus]

Anyone else with some build dates from the invoices?

30/06/22

That's more likely the VIN allocation date.

My SMS has a link to a site to complete NSW Registration online. The online app includes an NRMA CTP application. The account has a new attachment being a pre-filled registration application. However, there is no link between the two so one assumes that the Account attachment will eventually catch up with the successful online application or get dropped. The attachment contains the following interesting details: There is only 1 x Engine number field but the Tesla number looks like a composite: TG3221669xxxxxPRKTG3221660xxxxx; Compliance date is: 06/22; Drives Model Code field shows: MODE19 E5LDB; and Tare Weight: 1844.

 

[Ormaus]

Here is an older invoice that has both compliance and build dates on it.

 

[Stokesy]

So in this case VIN was assigned 4 days after production?

If that continues, and the factory opens tomorrow, VINs could come at the end of this week or early next week.

 

[pssturges]

VINs appear to have been assigned on 28/6 and we have a build date of 30/6. So VIN assignment 2 days before production. Would love to see more build dates.

I only got sent my VIN today, with the invoice dated yesterday 03/07.

Officially sent today. The current batch seems to have been assigned 28th as thats when they appeared in account source code. Unless you were checking that you may not have been aware it had been assigned

Teslanews

has some interesting insights.
Although somewhat focussed on EU demands and maybe MYs, he makes some interesting points about the recent shutdown, and also about battery capacity.
anticipation about shipping and departure dates
production run for m3 to ramp up faster than MY as well as uncertainty about length of shutdown. he also inthe dark about details and says "watch the parking lot".

 

[axelfair89]

Really good question.

HoopyFrood did spot some M3s in a different area.
Hopefully more to come soon.

Ah yes! I did see Hoopys post with some pretty good detective work but it looked like a few 3's amongst many Y's. I do hope I am wrong and we start getting some good news in the next couple of weeks! I didn't realise this journey was going to be filled with so much hoping and guessing!

 

[axelfair89]

Are we any closer to understanding if there is substance to the 'isNotMatchedToRa00Vin' theory?

 

[ChrisAKAHydra]

I want it to mean I'll get a vin soon, but I don't think it does mean that. I hope I'm wrong.

 

[jacksyd2022]

I don't think there is any correlation to vin.

 

[Hoopyfrood]

I don't think there is any correlation to vin.

I am wondering if it's correlated to a scheduled future production run. We discounted it before all this because new (at the time) Y orders had it too.

But as it turned out, loads of Ys were in fact built super quickly. So it's possible those orders were assigned to an already scheduled build? Maybe it needs a revisit. If we can find Y orders with 'true', that will give a clue.

Someone (other than me) order a Y now and see what it says.

Ra00 just stands for:
'Evidence of'

Interesting! Especially in relation to what has happened with those Y orders now getting a VIN... HMMMM....

However I am perplexed that Tesla has these details sotred in the javascript page source but doesn't make them available immediately customers. Maybe previously OD -> EDD was so short most customers didn't care about all the 'insignificant' steps inbetween.
