VIN Soup - By Scafremon
First, you put in packet numbers. Stir these over a warm flame. Lick the ladle, and you'll find the mixture is as expected - fairly consistent, not too many surprises.
Then, rapidly add order numbers, while turning up the heat! Just as the mixture reaches boiling, turn off the flame. The mixture is uneven at this point. You can try a taste, but you may get burned.
Finally, you add the VIN. Ahhhh, the glorious VIN!
But while adding the VIN, don't forget to sprinkle in some more order numbers.
And when you have added all your order numbers.....and you have added all your VIN....the soup is ready to be enjoyed.
(Add your order numbers and VIN to this thread, to complete the soup)
Watch the soup being made

Scaf,
Just to fill out the rest of the info on my Z. It is a touring model, Brickyard color. No new info on order number.
Thanks for keeping up this database. It is a bit less frustrating knowing that some people are getting their rides soon.

you don't even have a tracking number yet? You did get the packet no? So what's up with that?

But.....
30 days from now....when everyone else has their cars, or at minimum the cherished VIN's..... and my data shows me as the only one lacking info.....

Oh yeah, Good job with the stealthy sneaking in to the NNA event. Too bad you couldn't get photos. You got some ballz I tell you that much. Hopefully they don't know your real name... or it could be a loooong wait for you. Speaking of which, have you done anything else to **** off those fine people at NNA who we all love and respect?

Photos: I did get photos. (See the link)
Ballz: I still have 'em.
Real Name: They know it, believe me.
Long Wait: I'm preparing. New tires on the bicycle today.
More stuff to **** them off?: Probably, but not necissarily intentionally.

Went to my dealer today, GM showed me a print out. They have VIN's and sept 3rd delivery for 2 of their cars(not mine). They also had a tentave delivery of September for 4 other cars(1 was mine) but with no specific date. I was so happy (I was starting to think I would get mine in Oct or Nov) that I forgot to look at the order number.

Appreciate what you are doing!!
Your posts are interesting and very helpful to us. Thanks!!
I noticed my data on the spread sheet is not as complete as it could be. First of all, I don't have an order number, VIN number or delivery date. However, the data I do have is as follows:
Touring, Chrome Silver, AT, all options except NAV and aero pkg.
Ordered March 13, 2002
Received confirmation June 6th and special packet late June.
Purchased from Razzari Nissan in Merced, California at MSRP,
$1000 down- refundable.
I have contacted the GM 4 times in the past month, asking him for any info such as Order #, VIN #, Delivery date etc....but he has not provided any info. Salesman I originally purchased the car from stated he thought my car would be delivered around the mid of September. He has since left the dealership.

Additional info from dealer.
Another change on delivery date, not October but November.
Scaf,
Just noticed the change in your sig. --- scary stuff.
I really, really hope the dots don't connect that way.
