At what stage of the order process does a VIN get assigned?
I'm only at V200, "entry to shop" is late May, expected July delivery. Curious to know when I might expect to have a VIN assigned?
I'm not confident financing rates are going to stay flat in the coming months (certainly don't expect them to go LOWER anyways) and want to lock in the financing. Car's gotta have a VIN first though.

I asked early for insurance shopping but was told had to wait till V300. I received the VIN at V300.

I don't think the FEDS are going to raise rates for a while yet. The stimulus checks might jump start things a bit, but I don't think they will counter that with higher rates until then see a solid upswing pattern trend. If I were to guess and the economy continues a nice recovery, then I could see a Q1 2022 rate increase, but I really don't think we will see one before that.
Rates will definitely not go further down though, they have very little room to go down as it is, they are near rock bottom.

Hmmm. My dealer seems to think that, at least if I go through PFS, I can lock the financing in the instant I get a VIN.
Wouldn't be the first time dealers have been wrong about things though.
