Just curious.... how did you get the VIN? App? Email? Phone call? If phone call, who did you call?
I've emailed my DS 3 times over the last couple of weeks and not received a single reply. I don't want to be a problem, but would really like to get my financing and insurance set up, while I have a bit of spare time.
You can't get your VIN until the car is actually on the assembly line. Given your sequence number and window, my guess is that they just don't have any information for you yet.
Finally, this is great news. I thought you were going to lose it seeing folks at 1000s behind you getting the VIN.
Just got my VIN via the app. VIN 5638. I got it momentarily, and then it disappeared. Needed to reboot the app to get it back. Well....it's a start!
As i said...your car is done. My vin is 5484 so just 2 from yours and its sitting at the factory complete right now. I'm picking it up on Sunday. I know you need to get financing together, so you could presumaby pick up your car on Monday if you have the $'s in place.
They won't be able to schedule Monday - all slots are gone. I checked about it, surprisingly Sunday had a few slots at 3pm available.
I bet you're right about my car being done. So, in the end, my financial stuff will delay my pick up. I don't even have final MVPA.
@dcwitt...gregincal is right. You may not get your VIN for a while. If you haven't received your VIN by the time your window starts, you should call. I've had to call to get them to respond.
Hard to say. Others on this forum have noted that vehicles do not exit the production line in VIN order, even if they might start it that way.

I agree.... Mine is VIN 5467 and I got the VIN via the app Tuesday night, and still no word of scheduling a delivery date. My PS just sent the final MVPA today after I reminded her that the 48-hours that she promised was almost up.
Congrats on getting the car. I was lucky enough to get slotted in on Sunday also to take delivery at the factory. Presumably the shift just before at 1 pm. VIN 5044.
Hey, have fun picking up your car tomorrow...maybe you can look for mine tomorrow...5486 (silver/black int/19/pano)..hehe.

Help with Delivery Date Estimate
I posted this in the 60kWh first email forum, but thought it more appropriate for this forum:
For those of you who have been estimating delivery dates far longer than me, what would you estimate mine to be?
P13,571, reserved 11/7, order complete 1/25
60kWh, white, pano, 19", textile, piano black, tech, air, rear facing seats, supercharging
Even though the status in My Tesla says "The Tesla Factory is building your Model S" and my delivery estimate on the docs said Feb/Mar, I'm guessing last week in March or first week in April.

I will absolutely look for yours and report back. Will take pics of your car if I spot it!
Just keep calling to get updates. My delivery window was Feb 19 to March 5. I called and got Vin about three weeks before delivery window when I saw they were getting close to my res number (10542). I got the "in line for manufacturing" line. Two days later called about some paperwork and was told my car was on the way to GA. Already shipped! Should be there on Friday. They called me on Friday to say the car was on the way to Louisiana. Showed up yesterday around noon. 3 days before the start of the delivery window!!
I have a feeling there are more than 400 a week rolling off the line.
Good Luck to all

I called today and received an update! So here's the timeline now with estimates:
11/7/12: Reservation complete: "RESERVATION SEQUENCE NUMBER: 13,571"
1/25/13: Order complete: "Your Model S order is on its way to the Tesla Factory" (79 days)
3/12/13: Estimated delivery prompt (46 days)
3/19/13: Estimated VIN assigned (7 days)
3/29 to 4/12/13: Delivery window (10-24 days)
156 days (max est.) from reservation to delivery, 54 more days from now until delivery. That's gonna be a long 54 day wait...
