I expect the reason Mr M is away today is so he can leave the task of clearing up our off topic post to another mod

How can you look for a VIN in the source code?

If you use Chrome browser on computer, google a chrome extension - 'tesla vin finder'.

Then log into your tesla account and click 'manage' button.

If a vin has been assigned, pop-up will surprise you!

 

[Eco Boy]

Got my VIN today too!

Someone tell me how you guys are adding tow bars

You have to call Tesla and ask them to add this off-menu item to your order. When I went to do a test drive the SA told me that the tow bar might not be available for long, once the Model Y is released Tesla might remove tow-bar as an option for Model 3. Best to call and check if you can still do this.

Just had my VIN in the Source Code - ordered M3LR in Blue with Black interior on 10th Sept

Anyone with a lease car actually managed to get the CS chat to actually tell them what the VIN is?

Nope….

I was more curious, I don’t plan on towing anything. Am sure you can buy after market tow bars unless there’s something particular special with the Tesla one.

[SirBaz]

GOT MY VIN!!

I am a long time lurker who cannot contain my excitement so had to make my first post. Shows on source code. Thanks to Mr M who not only has a huge amount of knowledge on the shipping and Tesla front but also makes me smirk at least once a day.

White LR Black 19".

This is possibly the most excited I have ever been about a car, even when I had to wait 8 months for my cayman that I ordered in 2007 and put me into financial ruin

Was just curious, I don’t intend to tow anything. Surely you can buy aftermarket tows? Range on the Tesla is going to be about 3 miles

Got my VIN today

Order date?

 

[Oxstock]

I wonder with all these messages going out to people if it will prompt someone who’s ordered a white LR, black with 19s to cancel….

I know what you mean. I've had a succession of new cars for over two decades, but this one feels like buying into the future....

Technically yes but legally no as it will be registered with a zero towing ability.

 

[Aldo1]

Ordered SR+ on 26th Sept, then changed colour and confirmation received on 1st Oct. There is no delivery timescale on my account, and no VIN in the source code. Would I be right in assuming that November delivery very unlikely?

Meh. No one is ever going no.
