Sweet - I'm P445 and mid December for me too! Good luck!P446 - got the "deliver this year?" email yesterday and the button magically appeared today. Delivery estimate is Dec 12-26. Performance, Black\Black, Grey 21", Carbon Fiber, mostly all the options.

Agreed. I've had my VIN for a few days now and I'm very happy about that. However, I only received it after specifically requesting it via email to Tesla - I got a response almost immediately, so it certainly appears that they had it readily available. A day later, people started getting the "deliver December/2013?" emails. The floodgates do appear to be opening now but it alsmot seems like there are more deliveries scheduled for December than they can possibly make. Time will tell.From the customers' POV, one of the most common needs/problems is the slowness of communicating VINs. Financing and insurance etc. is all dependent on having it, yet many don't get theirs till the delivery is under weigh!! This seems to reflect a big procedural gap. The VIN is stamped on the body in white even in advance of painting. What is lacking is recording in the order DB, so that the customer can be immediately notified and get on with things.
Making VIN communication timely would ease a lot of frustrations, it seems to me.
