highest VIN number in production?

I'm also puzzled, but I'm only an engineer, not a finance guy. Whatever they squeeze in this quarter, they don't sell in next quarter. Shouldn't affect tax unless the fiscal year ends 6/30. Maybe it has more to do with cash flow, since they do get money quicker if they have an accepted delivery quicker.

Gotta be honest though, it does leave a bad taste seeing people who ordered a similar model later getting earlier production dates, putting the company's interest ahead of fairness to the customer. I expect that out of most companies. I thought Tesla would be different.

End of quarter sales goal and also to beat analyst estimates? When I worked with salespeople before, the last days of the quarter was always the craziest time of the quarter and end of year was even worse. Also, if they have a large backlot, booking some revenue ahead by delivering locally won't hurt next quarter neither. Company always do this to move revenue around to make the quarter report looks good. (especially with a huge backlot)

Received VIN (through the serial number on the Tesla website) about a week ago, confirmed June 30, VIN 52525. Quite an easy to remember VIN, too!

Love it! I have a thing for awesome random number combos. I still hate whoever got 44,444 !

This thread made me look at My Tesla again, for the second time today. And lo and behold I have a VIN - 53743. I confirmed my order on the 4th of July. I figured mine might be taking longer since I ordered a brown car and that is about the least popular color. Delivery late September but unfortunately I will be out of the country at that time. One extra week of waiting will just make it that much sweeter!

Hi Kapenagary, I also have a 537xx VIN and confirmed roughly 3rd July, so I don't think it has anything to do with the color you choose.

This thread is going on the wrong direction! Please read the title and put news/information on VIN's on the production line.

Thanks!

My VIN is 520xx. Dashboard says delivery scheduled for September 25 but still says sourcing parts.

 

[JBusch]

My 498xx planned delivery Sept 4. DS last Friday said it would be close but he thought they could meet this date. Today 500xx who was scheduled Sept 4 delivery got a call from their DS pushing out delivery at least 2 weeks.

Has anyone had a delivery after August 18? Or even had their status move to "In Production"?

 

[NoMoGas]

I got 55530 yesterday

Received notice about ten minutes ago that my VIN 505xx is scheduled to come off the line next week for Columbus delivery 9/16. Originally "Late August"
