Now a VIN won't be available until there is actually a car scheduled to be built.
I think perhaps they want to make sure I can afford the car? But still seems a bit strange since I already told them I got a lower rate with my bank and they did not offer anything lower.

So they should have a production number even if they don't know the build week yet? Is that even possible, secured allocation but don't know when the car will be build?
Same problem here with my CA. Got a call last month about allocation, tells me I'm looking at possible December delivery. I forget to ask about production number, I email and call but no response yet as of today.
