You just call your local showroom and ask. They can look your car's VIN up when its been assigned.

Besides the suggestion to contact an SA with the question, try this forum for more active current MY owners. Model Y: Interior & Exterior

On the subject of FSD , yeah he is way off. On other subjects, 2x-4x the given timelines and you won't be disappointed. He is in the habit of giving way too optimistic timelines. Elon has admitted this a few times. He says his timelines are off, but he does get the job done eventually.
And he has been spot on so far. 
How about we all get excited when someone ACTUALLY gets an Austin VIN and an Austin car.

Tesla Has Around 1M 4680 Battery Cells in Fremont Awaiting Shipment to Giga Texas for Model Y Production
Tesla has about 1 million 4680 battery cells at its manufacturing facility at Cato Road, Fremont, California. The source said the batteries are awaiting shipment to Giga Texas for Model Y production, with certification to be completed soon.

Now we’re talking.
Finally! I suppose if these are actually production vehicles we’ll see more of this over the coming days .. that will tell us a lot.
Well, that will get them 1100 cars anyway....Tesla Has Around 1M 4680 Battery Cells in Fremont Awaiting Shipment to Giga Texas for Model Y Production

If they are production we should hear an announcement from tesla that they have begun shipments.
How can on tell from that picture if they are indeed made in Austin?

Correct
GVWR is max loaded weight it is designed to carry. It is meaningless to know the weight difference of battery packs.
"Gross Vehicle Weight Rating represents the maximum amount of weight that your vehicle can handle safely which includes your payload capacity. Your GVWR can be found on the placard attached to the driver’s side door."
IOW, the GVWR does not have to change with different battery pack.
What we need is:
"Curb Weight is the weight of your vehicle that is generally given by the manufacturer and it refers to how much your vehicle weighs when it’s resting on the curb and not in use. It does not include passengers, cargo, fuel, vehicle accessories (toolboxes, etc), tongue weight or any other separately loaded items."

That is from info leaked in these forums. Nothing from Tesla itself.Tesla Has Around 1M 4680 Battery Cells in Fremont Awaiting Shipment to Giga Texas for Model Y Production

Take with grain of salt, but looks legit.
That’s a couple days of cars at full factory speed. Surely they have more than that….Tesla Has Around 1M 4680 Battery Cells in Fremont Awaiting Shipment to Giga Texas for Model Y Production

If they were actual customer cars then someone would already have the vin in hand and someone would be blasting the proof. They could be going to an offsite storage area until certification allows them to sell the cars.
EDIT: They may be doing this every night...Someone should have followed it to see if it was going somewhere close

That's exactly what I was thinking the moment I saw this... at least follow the truck for 30-40 minutes lol. Find out the direction it's going!
