Want info? Ask a Z owner!!!
To all my future RX-8 victims, ;) your cars are on the way.
I’m tracking the VIN (2086) of a friend who has an RX- 8 on order. He received his VIN last month. I found a few other VIN’s in another thread and checked them too. As you can see the cars are starting to move. I’ll be tracking my friend’s until delivery (about two weeks) so if you received you VIN, send it to me and I’ll add it to the query. I check about 2 or 3 times a day. I went though the same thing as you guys last fall waiting for my Z so I feel your pain. Pooch :cool: |
Could you please check JM1FE17324********?
I'm told last status was at port. many thanks wakeech's edit: just for safety's sake. |
Oops! Just looked closely, saw you checked already.
Much appreciated, any updates welcomed. |
Just sent you a PM
Please let me know I can't take the ambiguity much longer |
OrangeBingo,
I think Pooch is only able to check Canadian cars coming from Vancouver on CN rail. sorry |
Score! I was going to ask you to check mine, but I noticed the screenshot you have is for a car bound for Dartmouth NS, which is where I am and where my car is bound. So, I have to believe my car is on the same train.
|
Thank you Pooch350Z!
That's my car (00839)! One week until it gets here. I think I'll just go call my dealership now.....:D |
Update
Here's an update. Looks like those in the east are in good shape.
|
CAUTION
...just another word of warning about writing your complete VIN number in public: the unscrupulous CAN go to a dealership and get a key cut with the right microchips in it, if you know what i mean. please, use discresion (ie, PM's at minimum)
|
Maybe I'd better scratch the VIN off my car, too, when I get it?:p Just being a smarta$$!
|
Thanks Pooch350Z, nice job !
Called my dealer and my car is now in port :) Hope that it will be on rail soon... I'll send you my VIN via a private message. |

VIN
Hi,
I just sent you a PM as well... thanks in advance for your help... the anticipation is making Ron Jeremy go numb... |
Hey is VIN posting a good idea?
wakeech,
I agree- I've been watching our southern cousins (AKA USA) with a bit of incredulosity while they post their VINs to the forum. I ask myself. Would you post your newborn baby's SIN (Social Insurance Number) on the internet ??? I do not think its a good idea!!! NO!! That is somehow inherently stupid. The VIN is to the car as a SIN is to a person- With that number, a lot of malicious can potentially go down- like someone getting a loan with your car as collateral, insurance fraud, etc. Maybe I'm just paranoid, but something to consider if you are considering positing your VIN for some reason. |
On the other hand, you'd think that proof of ownership, not just VIN, would have to be shown to get any keys made or loan collateral approved.

Owner registration photochop
Can any forum members out there help me out --- i need ownership papers for the follwing name and car- Oh and here's my address in Burlington...
(Canada: true, but my choice is just to hang on to that number like the precious littile bit of information it is) |
Pooch350Z, what did you mean by:
...To all my future RX-8 victims... |
Originally posted by Canada Pooch350Z, what did you mean by: ...To all my future RX-8 victims... I meant I'll be waiting for you guys at every red light :D BTW IMHO if someone wants a VIN he just walks up to the car in a driveway and reads it and then does whatever he wants. I might be wrong but I wouldn't lose sleep over it. |
Originally posted by Pooch350Z I'm collecting VINs and ordering keys. Got about 15 so far. ;) I meant I'll be waiting for you guys at every red light :D BTW IMHO if someone wants a VIN he just walks up to the car in a driveway and reads it and then does whatever he wants. I might be wrong but I wouldn't lose sleep over it. Or is that just Montreal? :D |
Originally posted by Jasper_the_2nd Wait a sec; I though a red light in Quebec meant go really fast? Or is that just Montreal? :D |
Hey Pooch,
Do you know if there is any Rx-8 for Quebec City on rail right now?? My lease end on the 28th and my vacation starts on the 26th... still hoping to get my RX-8 by that time! Hope to see you at the corner of Charest and St-Sacrement... nice drag strip :D |
Originally posted by Canada Regardless, Pooch will be there on your tail in his 350Z, trying to get in a position to read your VIN! |
