Yeah because looking at this chart (which is as good as I can get), it goes in pretty solid order all the way down to beck's order, and mine is just mysteriously missing... indicating that I might have actually gotten my car in early March had the system picked it up correctly.
The ONLY thing I can think of, is that I initially "ordered" my car, but didn't pay for it and had selected May for the delivery... This was when I was creating my account with the website, and not really sure if I wanted to pull the trigger yet or not... and was thinking I would be more prepared for it in May. I thought it over for a couple days, and then actually paid the deposit (starting my 2 weeks grace period) and changed the date to March. Then a couple days later I decided to just go ahead and confirm sooner than 2 days out... in the hopes that would kick me a bit farther forward in the processing chain.
So I guess the takeaway here is, when you order your car, pick the date correctly the first time around? I mean clearly if you look at the VIN issuance, it seems to mostly go based on when you CONFIRM your car. That doesn't seem to have happened for me, and I had to wait over a month to actually get my VIN. I don't really mind if it was my fault in the way I ordered it, or whatever. I will just be happy when I get my car, but it sure seems strange the way this all happened for me. I will definitely ask my DS when I get the chance to, if he can figure out why the weird time gap compared to other people.
