Can people post their VINs and arrival dates here? Maybe we can figure out the pattern and help those of us waiting with baited breath.

Won't help. VINs aren't built in exact order, and they definetly aren't shipped in it.

I know they aren't shipped in order, but we might find the pattern of VIN groups that have been shipped. But if they aren't built in order, that won't work.

You know, I bet there are still patterns to the arrival of VINs. They can't be built in arbitrary order.

No, VINs are assigned as they are pulled from the order bank. But the cars are built to have similar cars together. For example, black GT manuals without IUP would be built in a group, regardless of VIN. Thats why what you want to do won't work.

Grantsdale I'm sure the way you describe the builds being pulled is correct because I have little knowledge on that aspect however as strange as it may seem, colors are not grouped together. Years ago that was the main grouping ie all torch red today. With the new computerized spray machines you can hav a red go followed by blue. The paint equipment cleans the color from one to the next.

I figured as much, but I was just making an example, i used the color because its the first thing that popped into my head, it was the same as saying all cars with the shaker 1000.
