My 2023 GLE 450 4Matic was "born" today - Excited

I custom-ordered a 2023 GLE 450 in November. It had a production date of 1/8/23... but, my dealer notified me today that it was built today! The General Manager, who has been super great, told me he put it on the Hot List to expedite it (I'm assuming delivery). Does anyone know what the Hot List means?

I have been a GMC Yukon driver (6 Yukons) and this will be my first Benz. I'm super excited.

I was told by my dealer on Friday, the status has changed to VPC (Vehicle Prep Center). Anyone familiar with this status?
