I too got my VIN today 153981. My understanding is that they group similar orders together. Watching our orders will tell us something.

My vehicle summary at the bottom of COTUS doesn't show pp2 in the list. Is this normal?

interesting that your build week is 1 week after mine but EDD is 3 days ahead of me. But I guess your car will not be shipped by rail as you are a lot closer to flat rock.

It's common for Cotus to not show all your options in the vehicle summary. I wouldn't worry about it. Just make sure it's on your window sticker when that shows up on Cotus.

The last EDD I had (since COTUS is being difficult today) is April 12. The last 6 is 154493, which puts me in between some of the previous posters. I didn't get my VIN from the dealership until last week; not sure how long it was there though. I ordered on Jan. 26. Interesting to see the variations in the dates; thanks to all of you who shared that information.

My dealer gave me a weird order number... A6P8 and 3 more letters... obviously it doesn't work in the COTUS tracker. WTF is this number?

Order numbers are usually formatted with an internal tracking number for each dealer. My local dealer uses the salesperson’s initials and three digits which climb sequentially each calendar year (ie: kr324). Soon your dealer will be able to give you your VIN number and your tracking adventure will really begin!

Lol so that was actually part of the VIN. My sales guy sent me a pic of the sheet a few hours after posting, he was looking at the wrong line. Apparently my car is expected for delivery in “1 day”... :eek: !
