1352, finally configured today!

Well, I was at work on a conference call today and heard my email "boing". I opened it up to find an email from Dave Schembri, telling me to configure. After I yelped, and then exited the conference call as soon as I could, I confirmed.

White on Silver Passion coupe over Black Leather, all options.

The wait is on

Anyone have any idea how long until I can expect to be able to get my VIN and track this beast?

It was 80 days for me. Hopefully a shorter wait for you.

I'm wondering if different places in the country get configured before others ,I didn't even place an order on-line till 10/24/07 , I got my configuration notice on the last friday of january and my confirmation number was 1392 well past many other people ,I ended up buying an orphan 2 weeks later after visiting the dealership in sarasota

I think a lot of it has to do with te population of the geographical area that have reserved. With 3 dealers in the DC area, I would think/hope that we would have a lot of reservations.

I'm 1363 and still nothing.
I will probably buy an orphan too. No WAY I could wait till 2010 to get a new car and I really would like to have a smart.

pffft.

Now I'm really confused!!

I am confused. My confirmation number is 7112311352. Wouldn't this mean my number is 1352. I also registered on 9/14/07. Help!!

I live in Chesapeake, VA..... about 30 minutes from the Va Beach dealership that opened on March 8th. I called this morning to inquire about reservations and was told they were instructed to tell prospective buyers if they reserved today they would have a car in 10-12 months. He had no idea what they were supposed to tell those of us who already reserved. This whole process is just one big bummer.

Funny, there's a 1420 configuration on March 20th and someone higher (1450?) configured yesterday. This is all over the place.
