All I can tell is that after the "0170657348"(VIN?) are the 3 digit codes for your options on the car. 2010/11/12 looks like the delivery date. MSRP is $71,800 and the build start date or PI which may stand for "Purchase Inquiry or Invoice" is 2010/08/13. The 111 in the beginning is probably the code for your car color. This is purely a guess though

I assume that delivery would be 12/11/2010. I would be happy with that.

I dunno if its Nov. 12th or Dec. 11th. If you did indeed order in August then you might have it in 7 days. From what I hear it is approx. 3 months to delivery so that would work out to be November.

No, I just ordered this a few weeks ago but they may have already had one in process?? I bet Dec 11th. That is still pretty fast compared to Audi. I was going to order the S4 and that was a 90 day wait.

I have a question... Why do you guys went with the build option instead of buying it from the lot? Where you could get a better deal! price wise I mean
I know H wanted the Capri Blue color with his specific options but I'm sure for others you could find something similar for a better price? I might be wrong so enlighten me please

I use USAA pricing so I get a pretty good deal (invoice plus $650 - $2,000 rebate)' so I would prefer to get exacty what I want. For example, most on lotnhad panorama sunroof......I would rather have illuminated sills instead.

I'm pretty sure it's 11/12/2010 based on the other date in the string. If it went year, day then month the car would have been ordered in the 13th month.
