VIN: 8714
Location: Menlo Park, CA

And now there is a delivery date:
3/30 at 4PM in Fremont

It will be ready sooner but I will be out of town when it first becomes available. It's getting exciting but I wish Solar City would give me an installation date for my electrical hookup.
 
Just got my VIN. here is my timeline:

03.21.13 - confirmed factory pickup of 03.29.13 @ 4pm

@blc1017 - I don't think I'll be sleeping from now until the 29th either :biggrin:
 
03/17/13 - VIN #8204 provided via email
03/21/13 - "Pay Now" button appears, VIN appears in app

Thanks for the data point. Production seems to have risen above expectations. Feb.28th the highest VIN to appear in the app was 6533. Now 8204 is 1671 cars in 21 days or 79.5 per day. 79.5*7=557 cars per week(!).

If we calculate for a 5 day week instead the number is still 557 cars per week. Quite a bit above 400.

I do not think the Feb.28th VIN was low since the Feb.5th VIN was 4874. That was 1659 cars in 23 days in February, or 505 per day.

If we do an average of ~525 car per week and use 12 weeks in Q1 (week 1 the factory did not operate) we get 6300 cars made in Q1. Probably fewer delivered, somewhere about 5500-6000 would be my guess.
 
Ignore Solar they are waaay overbooked. I got 4-6 weeks window from them. Local electrician did all the work for $300 in 2 days.

I spoke to them today and they said they are waiting for the city to issue the permit. They asked me to give them until Monday at noon. We'll see...

On the good side, I signed my MVPA today and sent in my payment. If it wasn't before, it's real now.

Picked up my Tesla (60kWh) at 9AM at the factory last Thursday and drove it to LA. Supercharging is totally awesome! Only issue was Harris Ranch, but there were six more stations ready to go live any week now.

Fremont to Gilroy:
