Must be why I said in my first post that I understand ordering a STI or a car with navigation, but not a base WRX.

Haha yea...well who knows when they picked up the cars from the plant. Just because it was released to the trucking company doesn't mean that it was immediately on the road towards the destination. Also, it sounds like trucks will stop at multiple dealers so it may be making pit stops along the way. |

I ordered 10/5, if they couldn't find one to match my order that was already built, my God it should at least have cleared the factory by now and just be waiting on shipping.
I just watched an ultimate factories episode on the corvette FFS, car gets built in like 40hrs on the assembly line |

If you ordered on 10/5 I would "think" you're in for a much longer wait until built / VIN. |

No I agree getting a vin will take forever, because subaru's inventorying is done manually it seems, and folks get backed up and/or lazy there is a human element involved.
The actual construction of the car should be done by now though, whether or not the "system" reflects that and shows a VIN. |

There will be nothing of value for them to tell you for at LEAST a month. I would ask your dealer as opposed to calling SoA as well. They can run a "pipeline" request to see if your status has been updated. |

Unless you have a dealer like mine that tells you "nope no updates, don't know why it's not here in the 6-8 week time frame we gave you". Only to find out from SOA that your order has been on hold for 8 weeks since you ordered.

I ordered a 2013 WRX Limited on Sept 22 and figured I would join this forum to see what critical things would need to taken care of when I finally got the car. I don't like what I'm seeing on this thread! I have received nothing yet about my order. I'm figuring VON stands for vehicle order notification and that you usually get one in about a week and then a VIN when production actually starts. I guess I'm going to have to pester the dealer! Don't like the ones who are saying 10 weeks and waiting

VON = vehicle order number. VIN issued once production is complete and it's shipping out of Japan. |

VIN-O-MATIC BABY!!!
ETA is Nov. 2. Ordered around 9/4/12, SWP 5-door premium with a few options but no nav or STS. My fancy has been sufficiently tickled. |

I don't get what you mean. I ordered a base WRX with just a few options to keep the price down and will add some things after the break in period. I have always wanted a WRX and don't need an STI because I will be using this as my daily driver. Navigation is so expensive and I really don't need it. Base WRX's are tough to find where I live. The wait will be worth it in my opinion.

Awesome day today! I was really starting to get thin on my patience because I ordered 8/30 and still just had "month of December" and no VIN, but today I got a VIN and I was also told that my scheduled date is 11/9, and my estimated arrival is 11/19. I'm not sure why there are two different dates but hey I'm super happy neither of them are in December and that progress is actually being made! I had actually tried to call another dealer today about a SWP they had on their lot but he wasn't in, and now I'm fine with that, I'll get my DGM with everything I wanted. Anyone else get their VIN today? Does getting a VIN mean the car's on a ship or that it has already hit port, or can no conclusion be drawn here?
