So I decided to call the number I received my delay call from just to see where it goes to, and it turns out it's the Tesla delivery scheduling team and it's a number you can call and speak to someone at (was expecting some kind of message indicating the number can't receive calls, etc.). I spoke to a nice agent that said they just didn't want to promise a date and then miss it again, but that they could put me on the schedule again just to have a pickup date scheduled. She seemed to read something on her screen and then told me that yes they're clear to schedule dates in October and gave me my pick of dates starting October 1st for Minneapolis. She assured me that someone would call me if the car ends up arriving sooner and indicated that they're having issues for everyone in my area. So I have a tentative date but not putting much stock in it, I'm just hoping that having an appointment increases the chance of getting a VIN reassigned.

Not bad — just a couple-day delay.
I’m guessing the closer we get to the 22nd, the more unlikely it will be that people will get the “delay” call simply because they’d know by now if it was going to make it to the east coast on time.

For what it is worth.. here is the latest summary from Troy's wonderful spreadsheet. For anyone still waiting to hear, we're almost there as not many new orders, most of the backlog is already cleared out. only ~750 folks still waiting for delivery (AWD and P combined incl Canada orders) and Sept delivery is already at 830+ as of now.. so al the queue should be pretty much empty by halloween.
Teslike Model 3 Order Tracker (Published Web Version)
From the "VIN Queue" Tab
RWD : 0.6 new orders/day and 2.6 VIN assignments per day
RWD backlog: 24 buyers still waiting and @ 83% order complete
I suspect most of the outstanding ones are data quality issues as the owner may not have updated after initial entry and very few (single digits) may actually waiting
AWD : 1.1 new orders/day and 10.9 VIN assignments per day
AWD Backlog (reservation) : 410 buyers waiting and @ 61% corder complete
AWD Backlog (non reservation) : 203 buyers waiting and @ 27% order complete
P : 0.6 new orders/day and 8.7 VIN assignments per day
P Backlog (reservation) : 76 buyers waiting and @ 78% order complete
P Backlog (non reservation) : 51 buyers waiting and @49% order complete
Most of these numbers are bit misleading (underestimated) as the delivery status.. as many already have delivery schedule before end of this month but don't have a VIN exposed yet due to the new process. so there could be a sudden spike with VIN assignments as folks get VIN 2-7 days before Sept 30th.

So Elon bumped you up the queue for the additional $1500
it clearly worked. Good luckAlso, I think Texas orders works in Tesla's favor since the car is considered fully sold/paid off to account in the book as sale due to the way it being handled.. even though the delivery takes a month.. very bad.. Elon should air ship the Texas cars over the next two weeks as you folks are prepaying it.

I had a feeling it would work, once they raised prices and my build grew $2700 and I noticed that my config date locked me at the cheaper paint and and dm price I justified allowing myself to spring for the white seats I wanted.So Elon bumped you up the queue for the additional $1500

People could/should call their local deliver center. It is kinder on Tesla as you want your car, don't keep the people trying to accomplish that on the fricken phone all day with people asking "is it soup yet". This customer base, on here is going to drive Tesla into paralysis, or they'll just stop answering the phones altogether.
A phone call will not make you car materialize any faster.

I retract all my previous comments... For now
LOL. I think Tesla heard your previous comments and just threw in the towel. Congrats!
Well, looks like this was a false alarm....no car assigned to me....darn! Thought I got lucky, but just another Tesla Flub....back in the waiting queue....
