I'm picking up my W/W from Reno on the 19th

Hmmm... guess mine is on a different truck because no VIN yet on my account.

I'm hoping they can do mine on Sat or Sun. I'm down in Carson and I'm not trading a car in, so I'm going to have to have someone give me a ride up there to pick it up. My Wife and my Sister both have to actually work during the day, so I'm guessing neither will be keen on driving me up there in the middle of the week.

sounds about right. Ordered 8/11 and still have not received anything from the text,
Whereas all of the local people who ordered W/W car received updated text and VIN already popped in Manage page.

Heard back from my SA today and she did say "delivery should be next week" but without a even VIN in hand, I'm not sure how they will get a car out to the Midwest before the 30th. ::kicksrocks:: Being in PHX, you may have a better change however.

UPDATE, just checked the Source Code and I have a VIN!!

Yeah something isn’t right. I think you previously mentioned you confirmed the number they have for you is correct.
Someone at Tesla has to be able to check their system and at the very least confirm that everything else is good-to-go.
But the lack of texts that many others are receiving is a concern...

I’ll take a simple email or automated call. At least something from the factory side. It’s a hit or miss with asking the SA questions. Called delivery and they say estimate. Hearing about appointment dates getting moved down further makes me worried.
 
Ordered W/B M3P on 7/28, Socal . Still no VIN but I called the sales advisor yesterday, they said I am assured/confirmed a car by the end of the month...whatever that means. Like they don't know the VIN yet but they have some knowledge who is getting a car before quarter end and who is not. Also asked if I could get the unlimited two year supercharging deal, they said they would refer my case to management. Management called me minutes later and said yes but I must take delivery before months end to get the deal, I would lose the deal if I could not pick up, but would not lose the deal if it is Teslas fault the car isn't delivered by end of Q3..

Also interesting that I learned is they can only build US market cars for so long before they need to shutdown the factory to retool and build export cars. Sounds to me that if the backlog of US orders is too long that some people may miss out on Q3 builds, implying that they would be in the same cycle we just went through with export cars built first then US west coast cars at the end of Q4. That would suck.
 
Here's a new one. Since 8/15 my order has listed third party financing as my credit union. Verified everything was good with delivery specialist on 8/16. Today, delivery specialist called to verify the credit union and make sure I had my insurance before delivery. I informed him I needed a purchase agreement with vin to secure my financing. Told it would be sent right over. Didn't hear anything so I called customer service tonight and was told it takes up to a week to enter and verify a bank/credit union that isn't in their system. So sometime in the next week I will receive my purchase agreement. Don't understand why this wasn't checked a month ago.
 
Just ordered M3P no FSD in Woodland Hills Ca. SA assured me that by ordering before 9/22 I will see the car by end of month. He based his feelings on end of quarter delivery numbers. I got 2 years of free supercharging. Made him send me an email confirming that. He told me the supercharging uploads once VIN is assigned and account created. Went online and can see my info. No VIN just an RN.
 
Exact same situation as you both. The dreaded Bay Area penalty box. 8/7 order and only got that stupid “within two weeks” text over the weekend.

Also ordered black interior, which I think it means extra time in the penalty box.

Drives me nuts that my work is miles from the Fremont factory.
 
Took Delivery yesterday!... Well worth the wait... car is amazing... hang in there guys....front bumper had 4 or 5 little rock chips in it :mad: chrome trim on one side has a scratch and on drivers side its dented where the drivers door meets it...but the good news is already got a service appt scheduled... lmao...also was told 2 years free supercharging was added to my acct... charged twice.. no problem... third time... credit card was charged... not sure what happened there...but seriously with all the let downs... i forget them once i sit in the drivers seat... the car is so f-ing awesome...
 
May be some allocations happening now for Pac NW area (hopefully Cali too) and for MSM color -- finally got my VIN (source code at least), today 9/17.
Order is for MSM/Black with FSD with config date of 8/10. Only other communication has been automated text on 9/14.
