Production (Non-Sig) Model X Vin #'s now being issued

[MichealW]

Initial feedback seems to be negative on the "blind holster" as it doesn't seem to fit most phones if they have cases. It will be interesting to see if Tesla chambers this since Elon made such a big deal about it at the reveal.

The blind holster sucks! I use a female male cord. Works amazing... Got the Model X last night! Its great... Did have some small issues on pickup but I waited as they fixed them. I recommend anyone that pics it up looks over the car really well.

I like it more than my Model S but I will tell you it has way less room for storage. I'm going to miss the big trunk area in my early Model S... Auto open doors are a bit buggy... but still amaZing!! I'm loving it...

I own my own rollercoaster.... Yippee!

And I think they come with both iPhone 6 lightning and Android (USB3?) so you can change them at will.

I hope it's easy to do because I can just see it that my wife will want me to switch it to iPhone when she takes the car out and it will be Android for me most of the time. :smile:

My DS asked me whether I want Lightning or USB when he first contacted me, so this is an either/or thing. Also, they don't offer USB-C yet, so people with newer Android Nexus phones will have to rely on 12V chargers :\

When were the last VIN's assigned?
I upgraded my 70D to a 90D + added the premium package last week and it just updated on MyTesla. Still waiting for a VIN. I believe it is currently in the 5k range but as I am in CA and ordered the premium package is it possible mine could be built earlier? When I was upgrading, I was told I should take delivery in mid April.

Which wheels are these? I don't remember seeing them in the config tool when I ordered.

Just got the good news! Initially my car was due for delivery late April-early May, but now I'll be getting it at the end of the month!!!

Super-excited to be a 2 Model X family!!

Nice, what did you order?

Vin 5453

I was told by my DS today that my car is in production. I ask him what exactly that meant, stamping aluminum, bolting things together? He said yes they are building the car.

P90DL. So maybe I will have it by end of month or first week in June.

Did you get your MVPA yet? If so, do you have a estimated delivery date on it?

Wow, my other half's car is supposed to be delivered 7 days from now, but the MVPA is from January and there's still no VIN in My Tesla and no updated MVPA. I believe pinging the Delivery Contact didn't get a reply yet...I'll suggest my other half ping again every day from now on - it seems ridiculous not to have a VIN at this point. (Doesn't insurance require it? I forget.)

How do you have a MVPA without a VIN? The VIN should be on the MVPA otherwise it doesn't seem like that document would mean much. What did you order and when? I'm guessing it must be a P90D if you got an MVPA in January.

@CmdrThor (best name and icon ever; I'm a huge Stargate SG-1 fan!): Just a regular 90D, but I think the MVPA is a preliminary one, due to the lack of VIN. When I got my S, I got a prelim one in mid-November 2012, then a final one Feb. 1, 2013 (days before I got my car, actually). Hmm, I'd forgotten the timing till I looked just now; so maybe this isn't so weird, but 6 days to go, it feels kinda weird (or at least, frustrating). My other half doesn't seem bothered by it, though. ;-) This was back when they did the whole Docusign thing; I don't even know if they still use that electronic signature thing or if they just wait and do it all in person. (I'm kinda very behind in forum reading.)

Thanks, obviously a big Stargate fan myself

Alright, well having no VIN would indicate your Model X isn't even in production yet so it's very unusual to be in that state and have delivery coming up in 7 days. I would call your delivery specialist and if you can't get a hold of him call 650.681.5100, someone at that number should be able to help you. Either someone messed up and didn't get your VIN on your My Tesla page or your X isn't actually coming in 7 days.

I never got a preliminary MVPA, my DS generated mine a day or two before delivery. From what I understand that is a manual step done by the DS and can be done earlier in the process if you are getting financing since it is required for that, but I got an unsecured loan from Lightstream so did not need it early.

I believe we signed some paper forms and then accepted delivery electronically on our My Tesla page.

Well, shoot, there is a VIN 4517 ... wonder how long it's been there. They really hide it. I feel silly - I looked all over the page, not trusting my other half to realize it was there - and I missed it, too! LOL. Thanks, @CmdrThor - you prompted me to take another look. We still don't have an updated MVPA but honestly the VIN is what I really wanted, and if they generate the final MVPA just before delivery, that's cool.

We got a loan without a VIN or final MVPA; I told the loan person we had a preliminary one without a VIN and she said not to worry about it. They gave us (just like for my Model S) basically a blank check saying it was good up to $XYZ and a place to write the VIN, and we're supposed to come by after getting the car to finish the paperwork at the credit union's end.

So anyway cool, it's all good. I feel silly. Thanks again for replying, Commander Thor - your "your X isn't actually coming in 7 days" is what spurred me to take another look, more closely! Give my best to the Asgard fleet of giant ships-all-staffed-by-one-person. ;-)

Great to hear! Hope you enjoy your X!

 

[kendallpb]

Thanks! :-D Well, his X, but I hope to drive it a little.... You know, the newer car's always better than the old one, so I'm sure I'll be jealous, despite my S. ;-)
