Default Order code, does it mean anything

I was told that my order number for my 08 vette is MDRRNM. Does that have any significance or is it meaningless. Does it even look like an order number. I think I have heard of others that had like 7,8 or 9 digits. Just wondering if anyone has any clue?

No, I think they've been 6 characters for the last few years. The last order no. I had 3 years ago was 6 characters, all letters of the alphabet. Yours looks okay.

Your dealer, or anyone else with access to the GM VOMS, can use that order no. to look up the status of your order. The order no. itself has no special significance.

It looks like a good number, but it's pretty meaningless. What's important is the "event code" in GM's ordering system. There is a sequence of numbers like 3000, 3100 etc (actually starts at 2000, I think). Those are the numbers that tell you where your order stands in the system.

Somebody posted them, and what they mean about a month ago. You might do a search.

EDIT - Found them...

STATUS EVENT CODES
1100-Order placed at dealer
1101-Order accepted by GM
2001-Order generated to dealer
2005-Order replaced with GM Prospec order
2050-Order changed
2500-Order sent to production, preferenced
3000-Order accepted by production control
3100-Order available to sequence (now the tpw becomes more stable)
3300-Order selected for production by assembly plant
3400-Order broadcasted for production
3800-Vehicle produced
4150-Vehicled invoiced to dealer
4200-Vehicle shipped
5000-Vehicle delivered to dealer
6000-Vehicle delivered to customer
