Tesla moves like lightning!

I find my VIN in the source this morning. I immediately called my bank to start the loan process, everything gets submitted by 2 pm and I'm told to expect an answer on Monday afternoon.

At 3:30 pm I get a text from Tesla that I have to take delivery by Wednesday in San Francisco or I forfeit the car. Insane turn around since I only just saw the VIN in the source. Thank god I've been following this thread and know about looking in the source!

At 5 pm my bank calls me for more information since the car is so new (2020 the VIN decoder says) and since it is a Tesla they can't determine the value of the car (hell even Tesla has raised the price twice since I ordered on 10/31!). I had to send them a screenshot of the pricing breakdown in my account. I spoke with them about Tesla requiring me to pick up the car at 2 pm on Wednesday and she is going to make sure to get the check to me by Tuesday. There is absolutely no reason we should be denied the loan.

Super excited! But god damn Tesla couldn't you have gotten me the VIN Thursday?! I even spoke with SA about how if I'm supposed to take delivery next week I need the VIN by Thursday to not be under the gun. Nope.

Oh well, it will all be worth it. Wednesday we will officially be joining the Tesla family!

It finally happened! a Xmas miracle.

Ordered 11/10, White ext/black int, 18" aero, FSD
DC: Buena Park, CA

Got a text from tesla today to schedule delivery and the earliest was 12/17 Tuesday.
Checked in account and found VIN number and delivery appointment time 12/17.

Page is weird that it shows page as if I'm at the first step of placing an order.
The next step page where upload insurance is not there and only a page for Financing option.

Anybody ran into that when they have a VIN on page but page show:

Anyways, it's coming to California finally boys and girls!!! You guys are coming up in next few days.
 
"vin" which goes after "showDetailsInSelfInsuranceForm" is the one which all of you guys are waiting? If it got serial number instead of null that's good news - right?

So it was real. Just get sms for schedule a pickup
Order date : 11/27/19

Model : SR+ White/White 18" Aero FSD
Location : LA, CA
Vin : 2020 VIN
Source code Vin: 12/13/19 (about 4pm cos I checked in the morning and it was empty)
Delivery date: 12/19/19

Second this! I received the same and noted that we would be available any day also. Fingers crossed!
(10/12 order LR AWD wht/wht 19" FSD Costa Mesa Pickup)
 
I got my Vin in source code but no scheduled delivery. Texted my SA today and he said the car is still in production. Does anyone know how long does it take from production to delivery? I will pick ip in Buena Park. There are only 13 days left until end of the year :(
