    Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

    Magnificent job... can barely tell that's a car 🚗 😆

    Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

    If Tesla made a dog it would have to one of the stupidly energetic breeds like Border Collie, Australian Cattle Dog, etc... Perhaps a Jack Russel Terrier or Siberian Husky coloured vinyl wrap?

    Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

    I have full spousal support for an $80k car purchase, but accessories (cheap or otherwise) are apparently a step too far. The human mind is a weird place.

    Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

    This is based only the data that is public (which is an unknown sample size). Tesla seem to have prioritised LR orders in WA/SA in order to get those vehicles on to a car carrier that meets a trans-shipping booking in Australia. After that only orders up to around 10 Dec have had a vehicle...

    Do both if that floats your boat. ;) Finding somewhere to send a bribe to in Tesla could be like finding their communications department; akin to finding rocking horse poo or getting an LR or P VIN.

    Log in to your Tesla account to get a fresh security token (they have a finite lifespan) and then this URL should return something useful.

    This is probably needs to true if they are going to make those deliveries in Australia prior to the end of September.

    Teslike Model 3 Survey & Order Tracker #1 - Google Sheets I think there is also a more AU-local sheet being manually compiled.

    I resemble that remark ... but with slightly less nerd factor in the glasses

    The as yet unannounced Tesla Marina, just waiting for Tesla Model B(oat). 0-60 knots in ???

    I wish I didn't... both our orders are sitting perilously close to progressing :)

    Yes, so nothing after December, and the poster was asking about a Feb 2022 order.

    No Long range or Performance orders after December 2021 seem to have VINs yet.

    Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

    The car production and allocation process might seem like a crap shoot However, as with most logisitic and engineering processes, it is simply likely to be far more involved and nuanced than it seems to a casual outside observer.

    Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

    I am sure the media outlets want a PR department to deliver press releases designed to masquerade as column inches (dating myself a bit there). I don't think customers want a PR department... they actually want a straight answer, not one designed to coddle shareholders. Unfortunately the only...

    Has Gen 3 Charger become smarter?

    I could be missing something, but nothing I have seen on the web site or in their installation material indicates that the Wall Connector has the requisite sensors to measure when the solar is in excess. It may be possible to limit active hours to when you expect the solar will be in excess...

    Perhaps not as big a surprise as the bank account when, through some mystical workings in Shanghai, all four vehicles end up on the same ship.

    Showroom - Mount Gravatt, Qld

    Could be a decent sized showroom, service/collision centre, and delivery centre in the same place. The current facility in Fortitude Valley was great for Tesla as a luxury car vendor but does not scale to Tesla as a volume car dealer.

    Ampol AmpCharge network

    You should not need to reverse into the rightmost bay with the Tesla charge port on the left. The other bay might be workable if they provide a super-extendy (pardon the technical term) cable... does not seem too likely though. Polestar machines have a left rear charge port too I think. The...

    Ampol AmpCharge network

    I agree it looks like a Qld COVID check-in but that image is not the Queensland site at Carseldine. Almost certainly a contrived serving suggestion image using a brand new, yet-to-be-tarnished-by-the-unwashed station.

    Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

    M3 LR grey/black 19" wheels ordered 6 Jan was $78,675. Now that configuration $89,623 drive away in Qld. In checking that I noticed that there is now an option between the standard Autopilot and Full Self Drive for $10,100. New, or have I not been paying attention?

    Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

    A Boeing 737 typically has five. Pilot, co-pilot, and backup for the cockpit and two for the elevator control systems. The two main sensors feed the redundant computers and both pilot displays, the backup sensor feeds only the independent standby instrument. The crew also has checklists and...

    Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

    It is also $75M that can offset the nickel availability/price fluctuations (about 56% price increase over last year) for fixed-price LR and P orders that have been held for a while now.

    Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

    It is in the main screen for the vehicle when Tesla deems it to be a knowable fact. For deliveries outside the immediate area of the service centres I think it may never appear in the app.

    @Lucinda101 In the Tesla App on your phone. If you are using a browser make sure you are looking through the Australia-flavoured Tesla site and not the US one. https://www.tesla.com/en_au/teslaaccount I ordered the same day, the expected delivery was 14-20 weeks, disappeared totally...

    Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

    It has taken a while for Tesla Brisbane to get around to calling, but they finally did. Perhaps they are working backward by order date. Anyway, not this quarter, probably not July, more likely August for my 6 Jan M3LR order. More concrete update in Tesla account to follow in next few weeks...

    Superchargers in Australia

    It may get a little better this year, but for any significant improvement in Brisbane it is next year. The planned Indooroopilly supercharger has slipped into Q3 2021. The planned Coorparoo supercharger, and a new one in the CBD, are now into 2023...

    Repair/Parts wait times in Australia

    With these long idle periods at repairers is anybody ensuring that the battery is not slowly running itself down to 0%? It would be a shame to have the parts arrive and the car be immobile or unopenable.

    I am hoping so too, along with those ordering early 2022. If not, well, that's life.
