You will only receive the VIN when your delivery appointment is booked. When you get the email/text and book it, the VIN shows up in the Tesla app. If you want to see if before then, go to your account page and click manage. Then right click on that webpage and click "view page source". If you search LRWY then your VIN should come up. All Shanghai cars start with that letter combination.

For those within 200kms of Montreal, I've been watching the changes to inventory listings. Yesterday when I looked there were 14 "Coming Soon", earlier this morning 31 and just a minute ago over 50 MYs with four MYPs "Ready for Delivery". I'm in NS waiting for a MYLR with OD Aug 2 and EDD Sept 7 - 21.
I'll add my experience to the knowlege base...
ordered from inventory july 7 M3LR
VIN retrieved by replying on their confirmation email (needed it to opt out of arbitration clause within 30 days of acceptance of the agreement)
EDD Aug 4-18 -> Aug 23-28 -> Aug 13-27 -> Aug 18 -> Aug 25
Had to buy from oakville as kitchener didn't have inventory, but was offered pickup in kitchener when I clicked throught the system. That was a lie though, I have to go to oakville. Booked delivery Aug 18. Aug 17 2pm they called to confirm. Aug 17 6pm they cancelled (vehicle is still in transit). Had to call insurance etc like the others as i'm trading in a car too. They unilaterally rebooked me for today at noon, but I couldn't make it, so it's moved to Friday. We'll see.

Tesla could improve their "delivery experience" by adding the ability for awaiting clients to track the actual location of their vehicle - just like when you are the reception for an arriving party at an airport you can see the ETD, ATD, location of the flight in the air and real time ETA. I'm only half joking about this suggestion as I'm sure there are countless issues that come along with enabling such transparency/tracking. Tesla doesn't want people calling or inquiring about status of orders so this would cut down those calls/inquiries and give buyers a soother (a page to constantly refresh).
I have been trying to search for my VIN for quite some time now. It is neither in MVPA (actual VIN) nor is searchable in Source Page (Hidden VIN) yet. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that they'll update it soon.
[MYLR Red, 19" Gemini & FSD
OD=July 7, EDD=Sep 7-21]
I think they used to provide such updates in 2016s sand 2017s... I remember that one of my friend purchased a Model X that time and used to tell me exact progress of his vehicle. So, it can be done, if Tesla wishes!
hello, looks nice. would like to share the the company did your ppf. I am in mississauga. thanks in advance
I used auto-links in Scarborough. Auto-Links : Toronto Tint, Paint Protection, Alarms, Stereo This is the 4th car they have done for me, my wife's old X1, my old 340i, and the two current MY's. No complaints
We had a VIN assigned 2-3 weeks ago. It was in the ”motor vehicle purchase agreement” document in our account. I texted the number that I’ve been communicating Tesla with and asked why the switch. The reply was that the vehicle was no longer going to Saskatoon, so they pushed our delivery back 2 weeks and assigned another vehicle. I’m guessing our car was given to someone else, which is quite annoying.
They seem to do that quite frequently.... Last year when I got my Model X, I found Ownership Certificate with a different person's name on it...lol... Apparently, that VIN was assigned to someone else while car was delivered to me... and they failed to change the documentation before delivery date! My delivery had to be delayed by a day as they had to re-register it in my name and also got new Licence number and new plates, etc. It was a mess!... lol ...But they gave me a new Model Y as loaner for 1 day!
We ordered an Audi A4 in 2011. We got a VIN as soon as the car was built and were able to track the car as it left the factory, travelled by train to a ship, travelled on the ship to Canada, then travelled by train to Winnipeg. We always knew where “our car” was. I‘m surprised that with all of their computer systems, Tesla can’t offer their customers a similar feature 12 years later.
Thank you . Would you mind to share the price and what they have done from you. Thank you very much in advance . I will pick up MY first week of September.
I just got the phone call to confirm my pickup at Oakville tomorrow. I'm getting so excited! Anyone else get confirmation yet?
congrats. when was your EDD on their site. What model ? My order in oakville as well. My EDD August 29th to Sep 12
Nice...Curious to see how it goes. I got my confirmation last thurday for last friday but was cancelled a few hours later as it was still on a train. I'm scheduled for this Friday (also oakville...inventory order july 7 M3LR)
My EDD was August 17-31. My appointment to pick up was booked last Thursday.
