    Australian Model Y Waiting Room

    Yes, I’ve got the same date range for Melbourne. Probably a bit optimistic!

    Building of the Faurrari

    I like the bronze rims, that’s my next upgrade :)

    Building of the Faurrari

    If you’re interested, this is how the Unplugged Performance Ascension looks, changes the front end a fair bit.

    Did it with the kids, not too difficult to do. The frunk was easy, the hardest part on the rear was running the cables down behind the bumper. The other thing that I did (and then redid) was the connection to +12V. The instructions had power running from the driver's side footwell but ended up...

    I had the bar without the wrap for about a month and I definitely prefer the centre section wrapped. The centre section has been painted so it can be removed if I get bored of it.

    TBH I don’t know the percentage tint for the fog lights, the side windows are tinted to 30% VLT. What centre section in red are you referring to?

    Oh and tinted fog lights and the satin black vinyl in the pods. IMHO The vinyl really finishes off the look

    Yeah also did spacers, DIY chrome delete, DIY Hans show powered boot and frunk. I did DIY ceramic coating back in 2019 but Michael did paint correction + ceramic recently. It really pops in the sunlight!

    Stage 1 @UnpluggedP mods complete thanks to @LuckyFive I had the @LuckyFive do it, iirc UP don’t paint it in multicoat red at all. With the fitment it is not an OEM product so it does depend on your shop to make it perfect. I got lucky as they really went above and beyond to make it perfect...

    Melbourne to Mt Buller in a M3P with snowboards on roof racks

    I wasn't able to find any chains that fit so I only travel on days where AWD vehicles don't need chains. I do carry some chains with me though.

    Melbourne to Mt Buller in a M3P with snowboards on roof racks

    I'll test it out next time I'm up there. In terms of raw data what should I collect? I have Teslamate & Teslafi connected to the car.

    Melbourne to Mt Buller in a M3P with snowboards on roof racks

    Yeah I'll try both about half an hour before leaving. IF we get to go again this season :/

    Melbourne to Mt Buller in a M3P with snowboards on roof racks

    Will do, provided that we get let out before the season is over! On the Tesla website Winter Driving Tips it gives two options: Precondition: Open the Tesla app and tap 'Climate' > 'Turn On.' Defrost: Open the Tesla app and select 'Climate' > defrost icon. Any idea which is best (or do I use...

    Melbourne to Mt Buller in a M3P with snowboards on roof racks

    I think by default the M3P+ has a higher consumption than your SR+, maybe that's why the consumption is almost 30%? My battery pack is ~80kWh so consuming 86% (97%-11%) would mean that 69kWh were used VS your pack of ~55kWh consuming 84% (95%-11%) meaning 46Kwh were used. So if my...

    Melbourne to Mt Buller in a M3P with snowboards on roof racks

    From what I’ve found out in the meantime you can switch on climate some time before heading back to the car to heat up the battery. Initially I had no regen but then about halfway down the mountain regen started working as per normal (similar to the other Mt Buller thread)

    Melbourne to Mt Buller in a M3P with snowboards on roof racks

    I've had the Tesla since 2019 but I’ve never taken her to Buller so I had some range anxiety. The tldr; version: range is not an issue on a 2020 Model 3 performance with roof racks and snowboards, I had 12% left on the Yea->Buller->Yea roundtrip. Was I worried? No, but if I change my rims...

    Suspension Upgrades - Melbourne

    That's my ride and all I can say is that Michael did an amazing job on the suspension and front bar. I had another well known and regarded (Tesla) workshop give up on doing my car. Fit and finish is better than factory! Here's another ride height shot, this is what an M3P should look like.

    Wailing wall for Australian Model 3 team VINLess!

    Just a FYI for those waiting on cars from Tongala, I just got an email from Melbourne delivery: “When your vehicle arrives in Melbourne we will reach out to arrange a delivery date and time. Hang in there, it won’t be long now.” my VIN is LF48857x sooooon :)

    Wailing wall for Australian Model 3 team VINLess!

    I also have the same VIN range and according to a discussion with Tesla this morning an invoice has been generated (although not yet received by me). The build date for the LF4885xx range is 22/10 ("2020" model). For my Melbourne delivery a late Dec/early Jan timeline has been provided by...

    I got a hidden VIN as well! No call or invoice though. Model 3 P+ Red/Black no FSD. Melbourne delivery. Reserved 1/3/19. Ordered P- 31/5/19, edited order to P+ 10/7/19. 5YJ3F7EC8LF4885XX

    Wailing wall for Australian Model 3 team VINLess!

    I wish that were the case for me... I got a cookie cutter response from Tesla yesterday regarding my car: At this stage you haven’t been allocated a vehicle and as such, we have no visibility in regards to an accurate timeframe for you. As soon as we have more information for you, we will be in...

    Wailing wall for Australian Model 3 team VINLess!

    Same here. Not happy with Tesla. Considering the photo of the model 3 had white wheels when I ordered I assume there is some kind of law...? If they do deliver with the (in my opinion ugly) grey wheels I will have some choice words for the delivery team. I know I don't have to accept delivery...

    Tesla Model 3 in Australia

    Damian at Dr Tint in Carrum Downs. He's done all of our cars and even though he hasn't done our Tesla yet (hasn't been delivered yet) I'll definitely take it to him. Good pricing and top quality work. Drtint

    Tesla Model 3 in Australia

    Awesome, great to hear someone in Melbourne has got their Red/white P+ :) According to the spreadsheet yours was meant to arrive on Debussy on Oct 5, it seems that you're one of the lucky ones!

    Tesla Model 3 in Australia

    A question to those of you who have a VIN – when did the hidden VIN appear on your account? Was it: 1. once the car was manufactured 2. once it was on a ship 3. only on arrival in Australia? Being #VINless I'm wondering if my car has manufactured or if it already on a ship somewhere...

    Tesla Model 3 in Australia

    I'm the same – red/black P3D+ in Melbourne. I've purchased 3 other new cars in the past (Citroen/Mazda/Mazda) and this is the by far the worst purchasing experience. So much for Teslas being easier to buy than a normal dealership.

    Tesla Model 3 in Australia

    I agree and thanks for the update. Lack of info is the killer (of my F5 button). Even though it doesn't feel right to be pushed back in the queue (or by assigned a car in random order) all I can say is lesson learnt, won't get sucked into paying for a reservation on the Y....

    Tesla Model 3 in Australia

    Same here. From what I see on the spreadsheet it seems that no Red/Black P3D+ have been delivered in Melbourne (unless I'm missing something). Maybe we'll all get them all at once, some day soon... Soooooon

    I feel your pain. I’m in a similar situation. Reservation March, ordered 31/5/19, updated a few weeks later to M3P+. I have a self arranged loan and my financier has been in contact with them / requested an invoice. No VIN either. Melbourne M3P+ red. I’ve written to them about this. I hate...

    I’m a Victorian VINless P+ reservation holder (ordered on 31/5) and I got a call from an unknown number today and hearing that it was a Tesla rep my heart jumped... but it was just a call to sort out some questions about my self organised loan. Either way it was good to talk to a live person :)...
