did you glance at the VIN's? They usually put the VIN and customer name on the dash.
Take your digital camera with you. I think the VINS have to be visible through the driver's side windshield in the lower corner by law. Take a good LED flashlight to illuminate the VIN with the flashlight at a low angle to the VIN Plate so the embossed VIN numbers stand out. An on camera flash will usually just reflect back into the camera and won't highlight the VIN number, leaving you with a picture of a supernova and no VIN. Then supress all but the last 4 digits of the VIN to respect privacy.nader said:did you glance at the VIN's?

+1 in every respect though I ordered my LEAF a day later than you (and I'm at Stevens Creek).Turbo3 said:BnBinSD, I got that same email at 6:30 AM and then two hours later got this "Expected delivery" email.
James, the excitement of driving a part of automotive history is almost here! Your Nissan LEAF™ is scheduled to arrive at your local dealer soon. Once you take delivery of the vehicle, your initial $99 reservation fee will be refunded. If you have any further questions about the delivery process, just contact your Nissan Dealer.
This seems to be the 7-Day email but with no mention of 7-Days. My date is still May 12.

Maybe this is good. A couple weeks ago I figured I really had a May date, but it didn't update to just now.
With near disbelief, I can say one of them is mine. When I got home from work last night there was a messaging saying my car was ready. 'Week of 5/05' turned into 'Day of 5/05'. I got home too late to schedule an appointment but I'm hoping to pick it up this evening.OrientExpress said:FYI: I was over at Boardwalk today and there were 15 or so Leafs there waiting PDI and delivery.

I went from May 6 to May 12 where it sat for a month or so.
Then today, 5/5, I got three email messages from Nissan:
6:33 AM: , congratulations on being one of the first to own a Nissan LEAF™! To continue this historical journey, make sure you visit the Nissan Owners' Portal
8:33 AM: the excitement of driving a part of automotive history is almost here! Your Nissan LEAF™ is scheduled to arrive at your local dealer soon
10:03 AM: , the estimated delivery date for your Nissan LEAF™ has been updated (5/9)
At 9:45, Mossy Poway called to say it was off the truck and getting prepped.
So there you have it. It seems they are running behind on invoicing as well, which is probably what these event triggers are associated with.

So I'm not the only Lurker? :mrgreen:

+1 as of tonight! Woo hoo! I'm not sure what I'm excited about but out there somewhere, a Nissan process has been triggered just for me!
sdbmania said:Now I'm May 13th! I'm happy, because it seems like things are moving again. I just got the Nissan e-mail titled "expected delivery." It was the one that said my reservation fee will be refuned when I get the car. So, I'm pretty confident that the new DB estimate is accurate.
