So just decided to start a California vin assignment topic.

So here is what I have assumed. A ship, Seijin, docked into Richmond, CA from Yokohama on 5/8 at around 8pm (my time might be off). It left that port to go to Oakland in the afternoon on 5/9. Subaru main California port is in Richmond, so let's put the offloading date at 5/9 when it left. The first shipment to vin assignment info to customers was 5 days (or so I think it was). These 5 days do include a weekend, but ports don't sleep, so weekends don't matter that much. Using same lead time, that should bring vin assignments to California allocated BRZs to Monday 5/14. I'm going to attempt to go ask SoA Friday though.

So this thread is mostly for us CA people to signal all of us to call in Friday and early next week. Let's try not to flood this thread until some one in California gets an actual vin. Hopefully one of us gets a vin from this boat.

PS- to anyone in the southwest, including Texas, you guys cars will be on the same boat
