The VIN are certainly "almost" production sequential, the dashboard's numbers are not at all.
Cars numbers 989 and 990 have already been delivered, by example.
I say "almost" because a car will a lot of exclusive options will of course be delivered later than a "regular" car.

It appears the VINs are not entirely sequential either, at least in North America. There is a bit of jumping around back and forth, although there is a general arc to a monotonic order.

The limitation number on the dash is not sequential. It just happens to go from 1 to 991.
The VIN number ARE sequential for the production slot. But an earlier built car could have spend some time in the workshop for customization while a later production car get shipped out first. A CXX car with simple customization might stay in the workshop for a couple days, while a highly customized car might spend 3 weeks there.
Car's built date (i.e. VIN number) and delivery date has little to no correlation for the R, just like the 918s.

This CXX thing is interesting. I begged and pleaded to get some great script on my sills but was shut down. Then you see stuff like this. I'm sure who you are still matters...
