I can hardly wait to start tracking progress with VINs instead of reservation numbers.

Wow what a rush of reservation numbers, no road shows/marketing events and the early adopter reservations start to trickle off early 1200 folks keep your eyes open for the reservations they are coming sooner than expected

The red looked pretty fire engine red to me today at the LA Auto Show. Perhaps my pictures show the right color http://www.smartcarofamerica.com/for...=8723#post8723

Red body panels

The red looks awesome - totally different from the roadshow red color on the European models.

This is really the way it looked to me, too. Fire engine red. Some of the closeups went a little orange, but that is probably due to the flash. No red interiors Mr_Cash, sorry.

Wow, just found this forum-- very helpful. Anyway, I'm 1226, and 1195 got email to confirm yesterday... as much as I can gather from bits and pieces... maybe moving along at 7 confirmations a week? Yikes, I have to wait another month!?!?

I don't think these numbers correlate the way you are thinking. You're not the 1226th order. Your number reflects either the day or week you put in the order-I don't remember which. There's a post somewhere explaining it better than I am right now. In any case,best wishes with getting your email soon. I was pretty excited when I got mine. Here's hoping demand doesn't taper off and these cars make a real impact.

1226 is a date stamp, search this forum for the key. You placed your reservation 31 days (1126-1195=31) after.

Ok, I'm catching up on what these numbers mean. That means it might take a lot longer, as the # of reservations to be confirmed increase as date stamps increase, correct?

The confirmation number you got back when PAG cashed your $99 'reservation fee" has been decoded to mean the date time stamp of that action. It could be that hundreds of folks have the same date as you.

We also figured, by these posts...who has been asked to do the second step and confirm thier car choice and options. Internet Brands (IB) is sending out the e-mails in batches once or twice a week. It looks like they are now up to sending e-mails to folks who have a number around 1196 (11 April).

I reserved April 30 and my number is 1215, you reserved 11 days later on 1226 or May 11th

We don't have enough members or data yet to scientifically guess when we will get the second invite .... but there are several good threads on the subject
