Question Regarding Delivery Date
I was rereading my VIN info and delivery date says 12/28/2010. I signed for it either on 26 or 28 of Jan 2011. Is delivery date and built date same meaning in this case?

Hopefully this is helpful information. The dealer should be able to tell you what category your order is currently at on the Netstar system.

If you bought it off the lot (not custom ordered), the first date is likely when the car was delivered to the dealer and they did their PDI. The second is when you took possession, which is when the warranty starts running.
