WTF??? I have a QG/T that I confirmed on 11/1 and am still waiting for a VIN while they cars with the same config available to other people??? All while there is zero response from the DA.
Ordering and Delivery: Lucid Air Touring

It sounds like this was an unallocated customer cancellation she identified with my exact specs (fully loaded on 20s).
I’ve been super frustrated by this process as allocations should be entirely automated - and instead it seems like something more manual where alert DAs, or those with pushy customers, are able to reassign open vehicles to customers.

Best I could find out today was my car was built, still at the factory and should be shipping to Goose Island soon. I think (hope!) ZR/Tahoes are starting to move out for delivery.
BTW - vin 12-9, still shows in production.Pete

The email I sent to them and my deadbeat DA 9 days ago threatening to cancel if no delivery by EOY resulted in a VIN 2 days later and car arriving locally 5 days after that. I did change from ZR/T to IB/SC though after getting a call from my DA 15 minutes after I sent the email. I was supposed to take delivery today but had to postpone to tomorrow. Very excited.
No word on the ZR/T/Metal roof car though.

That is my spec as well. At this rate I will likely cancel if they don't make EOY delivery. At the very least will drop the fully loaded part which I only took to get delivery this year.
No, but it's getting drawn up now. Talked to my DA and he forwarded the order to their transactions team. Said 24-48 hours to draw it up.
FYI my dashboard still doesn't show movement from last week, so not 100% reflective of current status. Still says in production.
Thanks…looks like no longer need to escalate as there was good progress today, with account updated, and order forwarded to transaction team to draw up PA. Hoping before Christmas delivery now back on track, given the vehicle is been sitting and waiting idle here at the Houston studio for about a week. Will be attending their hosted holiday event tomorrow and hoping to see it live, even if I can’t pick up yet…lol.
Does it mean that delivery is approaching, if you are asked to upload insurance information??
Duh, yeah.
Darn!! Maybe I’ll take a large stack of $100 bills…..
Lol…they told me cashiers check is accepted
Maybe... I am waiting for Black with Mojave interior and have been told that I should expect it in late January or early February. My dashboard also has the “update insurance information” button active. You can’t actually do that until you have a VIN assigned to you. Just having the Upload Insurance diesn’t mean much until your VIN is assigned.

They will accept your current insurance and after you get the VIN, you can get a quote and get proof of insurance when you take delivery.
Thanks for the clarification. I guess my point was just that having the Upload Insurance button active doesn't mean delivery is imminent if you don't have a Vin.
It will be a LARGE stack! I took my family (3 of us) to China in 2004 thru CITS, a travel agency run by the government. A full 5-star vacation at $1K less per person than a 4-star one with a U.S. outfit - totally legit. Only stipulation was cash payment. Carrying $6K in $100 bills (plus $3K for personal) equates to 90 bills and is no small feat. I was sweating bullets worrying (needlessly I might add) carrying that much cash aboard an aircraft, then in a foreign country. Upon arrival, I received a message at my hotel asking if I could DELAY payment for a day (travel agent was busy). Where do you stash 90 bills in a hotel? Laughing matter now, but not back then. Funny story but only to myself.

Just got the call saying my car would arrive in Houston Monday or Tuesday night. Asked for Friday pick up so that we can make a trip out of it. He said no guarantees but he's gonna try.
Will be a nice red Christmas present for the family!

VIN has been assigned for 10 days - "upload insurance information" became active yesterday
Do you also have the Make payment button active?
