    Australian Model Y Waiting Room

    Just my guess. There might be other reasons. When the GC was denied entry to Australia. I reached out to them about a refund for my order fee. At that point, I was close to canceling my order because I was pretty fed up with the situation as I sold my old car.

    I think they might give priority to orders that haven't been fully paid yet in case it is canceled at the last minute. I've got a slot booked for next Monday. I made the payment today.

    Just called Tesla and they wouldn't give a specific date, just the EDD in the app. Guess we'll just have to wait for sms, email, app notification etc

    Yeah, you are right. I should say it didn't happen to everyone. I hope those with the ex-GC cars can have them delivered safe and sound. I believe Tesla will ensure the cars are clean and the batteries are faultless.

    When GC was denied entry by DAFF, Someone suggested that Tesla might not allocate new cars to us and we were stuck with GC cars. Thankfully, that didn't happen. 🤣

    I blame the media outlets and some youtubers for those comments, they just love to stir up anxiety about things like range and batteries to get more views and attention. Unfortunately some people totally fall for it.

    I went with Temu instead of eBay because they deliver stuff more like Amazon. You get everything in one big box or a few large ones. 4PCS Wheel Cover - $157.92 https://www.amazon.com.au/dp/B0CK28Z4DX?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details Tesla Model Y Floor Mats 6 Pack - $150.99...

    Found my VIN in RAV. Earliest EDD is still Feb 1, but I think Tesla might begin the delivery as early as next week. Finally placed my order for all the car accessories. They have been in my cart for months😁

    I think the EV6 is designed for those who miss the traditional petrol car experience. They're even selling yearly service plans at premium prices for an EV just squeezing every last dime out of your pocket. And that's on top of the car's already hefty price tag and the salesperson's commission...

    The new final invoice includes stamp duty, but we can claim it back later once we've got the car. Tesla have sent the receipt of the deposit few weeks ago which can be used for that.

    It's wrong to mistreat call center and showroom staff, yet this doesn't justify the poor communication and lack of action regarding this significant delivery delays. In China, Tesla is compelled to be more responsive even if it is not their fault, due to intense competition and a critical media...

    I think it is due more to a lack of competition than to a cult following. EVs from other brands tend to be more expensive and less reliable than Tesla's except for BYD which are competitively priced and are better looking in my opinion. But they still lack brand recognition and are yet to be...

    All this time, the Stinkship at sea have probably emitted more carbon and pollutant than our EVs could ever offset. I thought that climate change would devastate agriculture and civilizations. But in reality either climate change is just glorified bs so no one actually take it seriously at the...

    Well, unfortunately, that's not their mission. Tesla's mission is "to accelerate the world's transition to sustainable energy." You want to blackmail them with a good customer impression or anything like that? Sorry for the lack of a better quote: "Go f**k yourself" - Elon Musk CEO of Tesla 2023
