Lucky. My car should be built sometime this month, but I expect 50-60 days delivery. Yup, it takes time to get a car from California to Norway.

I'm VIN 465XX and my dashboard says The Tesla factory is building my car. I'm picking up this Friday at Fremont))
Congrats Dennis, your time is almost here!
As for VIN implying a build date, probably that depends where you live. In Canada, ours was VINned May 20 but build didn't start until 43 days later. (Clearly the wait to transport cars out of the USA may be long. Dennis's VIN is about 120 after ours, but his possession will be a good two weeks earlier. pvandamcom's is about 70 after ours, and his build started the day after. Makes sense, although who knows when cars may arrive in the Netherlands.)

My contact at the Service Center called to say my car was still in production and my delivery is pushed back a week. It has been in production for 2 weeks. Evidently there are quite a few others in the same situation. It certainly didn't help that they moved up quite a few cars with later deliveries into the 2nd quarter and pushed mine back.
It was also delayed due to retooling of the production lines for the model X.
Oh well.

Production took a week for me, finished last Friday (if the website is an accurate reflection of reality...). Delivery after this stage to Netherlands is typically 6 weeks. Status still says "Late August", I guess I'm now waiting for that status to turn into an actual date, somewhere around August 25th seems realistic, but I'm hoping to shave a few days off

Interesting how your ordering dates and VIN number are very close to mine, your production started a day earlier, but my production did finish, at least according to the site, on July 11th.
Must be just about car specs, certain part delivery issues or something.
@JBusch - if you wish, you could have Alain put you on the spreadsheet. Just let him know the details that are in the first-page of this thread's sheet (like order/confirm date and various options). Hopefully they can get your car built and delivered to you by end of September. If not, soon after.
Too bad you didn't order just a tad later. 50,000 VIN would have been cool.:biggrin:

Model S: VIN 65513, Model 3: VIN 1913
I wonder if Tesla will reserve 50,000 for a special, one-off car that they may not sell to customers. They did something like that with that copper-colored 25,000.
This reminds me of the group I was in last year... I was on pins and needles hoping I would get VIN 10,000. :tongue:
