We do have a few dealer sponsors, can anyone verify?

That is one week later than what I was told from Chevrolet Chat (11/28/16), but it didn't sound like a firm quote, so they could have slipped it back one week.

I was told just yesterday via the Chevrolet website chat that my TPW is Nov. 14.

Interesting, possible the dealer was parroting a customers TPW date which wasn't one of the first ordered...

I'm just a customer, not a dealer, but was told by Chevrolet (live chat rep) just this morning that my vehicle is officially scheduled for production week of 11/28. The dealers I've spoken with invariably tell me that GM does a very poor job of keeping them informed.

I thought production has already started. Perhaps he meant this was the production week of your car?

I have not ordered one...Do we have proof other than the "I know a guy" tweet?

Perhaps Chevy will shock the auto world with an actual Grand Opening, Open for Business, formal National Introduction Day with multi-media advertising, the Works--just like they used to to in the good old days. Nah, best keep the car a secret.......

Post your order status code and TPW in the Bolt order tracking! thread! I believe you have the earliest TPW that has been reported thus far.

I recall seeing at least one other person with a TPW the week of Nov. 14 on another forum site but later their date was changed to Nov. 28. So, I'm somewhat expecting that my date could change as well although I was told that date just 2 days ago and the 14th is almost here.

I could be that guy. I was informed by my dealer that production had already started on the vehicle I reserved through them. They were one of GM's #1 EV dealers, so they said they got one of the first orders. The estimated delivery date of their first shipment is late November/ early December.

Now, if you're ordering as an individual, I don't know where you fall in the line. Also, I wouldn't be surprised if many of the dealers who either weren't EV friendly or were poor EV sellers got moved down the list. I've heard some dealers claiming that the Bolt won't be on the lot until February, which sucks for them. Maybe they should have sold more EVs.

It looks like somebody has a TPW of 11-4 (today) based on this generic article from the business section of the AP news, but it does have a few pics of them actually building one at the Orion plant. Somebody is going to have a very merry xmas.

GM officially confirmed production has started (thanks GM) so mods are welcome to lock or even delete this thread...
