+1. Red with white seats.

Not sure if it’s old news. There is a reservation page for the Roadster: https://www.tesla.com/en_au/roadster I’m reading it as $66k reservation fee today, final car price to be advised IF the car lands in Australia. Has anyone here placed a deposit? Still sore from the Cybertruck episode...

M3P hands down. Very confident in turns and roundabouts, but trades off comfort In our D grade roads. MYP is the balanced choice between enjoyment and family duties If you can stretch to a MYP. MY is no sloth either.

I bought this version...

You can definitely see the stars through the roof, just not the same effect as a clear glass. One pet peeve is there are suction marks on the glass, specifically on the windscreen. These are not removed after the glass is installed.

Visibility and tint at night is the same to my naked eye. I have a MY specific inflatable bed from Ali and a tow hitch, towed and camped once. Not sure how you camp in a M3 though.

Thought I’ll provide brief commentary of my Tesla experience, may relate to some. This post is of my views, and I do not intend to impose my views on anyone. I currently own 3 Teslas, 2022 M3P, 2022 MY and 2023 MYP, prior I had a 2021 M3 SR+. I have a MX Plaid and CT on order. I am no Tesla...

Port Melbourne delivery centre. Some cars came off the trailer just. A red, black and blue MYP and white RWD. Looking out for my white MYP… not a stalker.

Melbourne

For the folks who park outside and have scheduled departure, the demister may operate, risking bubbles in the tint.

I have not received any request, had my EV since July 2021. Last checked, car is still registered.

UnPlugged vs original.

It’s mate’s pricing, 6K. i do know similar joints are quoting 8K for Suntek, 10K for Flexi, in Sydney and Melbourne. I’ll stay a mile away if someone tells me it lasts forever. Like a good ceramic coating, preparation is key. Standard warranty is 9 years for both. I had one on my SQ7 for 7 years...

Suntek and Flexishield are available in Australia. Flexishield is very new in Australia and comes in many colours. I encounter stones flicked from trucks in where I live, so I find them useful in preventing stone chip damage. The preparation is equally important to the PPF quality, so make sure...

PPF. comes in colours now. Brand is flexishield, lots of USA teslas wear them.

Good PPF is a must if you’re going this route. Here’s mine. Satin white Y and pink blush 3P.

Alarm triggered events are saved permanently in the car, lodge a ticket and Tesla can perform a deletion remotely.

Thank you. Another question, are MIC 2022 M3P batteries NCA?

So leaving at 100% charged and plugged in will not damage the battery, but leaving at 100% and not plugged in causes damage?

My MYP is (still) in the Q1 timeframe, did yours move? Speaking from prior delivery experience, I‘m confident of mid March delivery though.

I have access to a non Tesla 50kW fast charger in my neighbourhood, 5kms from my house. Car is LFP. How does it affect degradation, charging with a cold battery? Will I be better charging off from a 22kW? Thanks.

100%. Invest in quality PPF.

Good day from downunder. satin white MY with blush pink M3P.

Speaking from experience. Tesla will adjust the price on your final invoice if it is lower than your order price. That happened on my 1st Tesla. You are allowed to change the car’s specifications 3 times max within the model line and not slip in the q if the VIN is not allocated. I went from...

Colour and Drive’s Tesla white does not blend well, maybe the original paint is multi coated.

Mine works in downpour, at night and when the evening sun is shining into the cabin. Oh, in max speed too!

Budget PDS states that optional glass cover does not cover sunroof, moonroof and any glass above you.

Degradation is caused by calendar and cycle ageing. How does pre-conditioning (or lack of) the LFP car sits with degradation?

100% agree. Like you, I had a SR+ (delivered Aug 21, sold May 22) and my current daily is an April 22 delivered M3P. Took delivery of my Mrs MY 2 weeks ago. Still a painfully slower drive and lacking confidence in turns every time I get into the driver seat. The added weight in the MY is...

For those transitioning from ICE will feel WEEEEEEE! For some of us folks here, transitioning from 3 to Y goes weeeeee…. Nevertheless, a grin everytime.

May be to cover their call-out fees if they identify the issue is caused by faulty charging equipment?

Deliveries are lighting up. Collecting my 3rd Tesla, familiar with their modus operandi

Mulgrave does not open on Mondays unless it is delivery time. It will be 6 days week from Tuesday to deliver Q3 cars.

For those in VIC, deliveries start mid next week. Received a call requesting me to deliver my plates to Mulgrave. I asked if Mulgrave is open on Saturday and was told it will open on Saturdays from next week To accommodate deliveries.

The EV space is sure getting crowded. I have one on order, will cancel if there are compelling offerings such as Rivian, F150, ID buzz van or even its stablemate, cyber truck, is available earlier.

Drove past today. There is a for lease sign outside Mulgrave.

Hmm.. Was checking up my Vin allocation for my MY orders and chanced upon my M3P's Vin. Zapp was built in Jan 2022 and has the 'ELON' callsign. Wondering if anyone in Australia has it?

I recall seeing a for lease sign outside Mulgrave some time back. Maybe a move to Oakleigh is imminent? Can anyone confirm the signage is still there?

I alternate between SR+ and Performance as my regular driver. Ordered a RWD and Performance to fulfil the family duties and intend to sell both the 3s. 2nd thoughts now after driving the Y. Ride is not as compliant as the 3. Acceleration is not quite there compared to the 3, though faster than...

There‘s a short stretch, on the ramp towards King Way, starting from the turn off to Montague, the autopilot goes from 80 to 70 to 60 and back up to 80 EVERYTIME. Very comical when you have passengers, like real life bobble heads doing the dance, forward once, twice, AND backwards! Also, you...

Car was in Richmond for a warranty job and chanced this up with my service advisor. Lease ends in December and will move to a bigger showroom with superchargers ‘down the road’ where the car showrooms are. ‘Not public facing information’ when pressed further 😅. I drive on Nepean regularly, will...

Affinesse.

For those keen to know the tyre brand, Gemini wheels are wrapped with Hankooks.

Hello. Seeking advice. MY has a one piece glass roof, is tinting possible/recommended? Thanks.

Same.

Ordered RWD, white on black, induction wheels, delivery Aug-Nov, and Performance white on white, delivery Nov-Feb Both to join my 2022 M3 Performance.

😍😍 MYP

Ordered a MXP today. Waited 4 weeks for my 1st Tesla, a 2021 M3SR+ Waited 4 months for my 2nd, a 2022 M3P 4 years wait for my MXP? 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️ The waiting game begins…

Maybe it was answered elsewhere. Is there a way to reverse range loss?
