The radar thing is no big deal. No feature loss just a different way of running those features. The document you mentioned is the registration form and that’s what they put down for motors. Your LR will be dual motor.

Would you mind sharing the first 4 digits of the last 6 of your VIN? Congrats on joining the VIN club

RWD doesn't hit the LCT bracket even at the current pricing so you should be ok

This method no longer works as the 5YJ was for Fremont built vehicles.

The isNotMatchedToRa00Vin does not mean anything at this stage. We just need to wait till we start getting VINs. During Q1 cars started getting VINs straight out of the factory. This could happen again or we might need to wait until they're on ships. We just have to wait and see.

This happened to a bunch of people about 2 weeks ago. Nothing has come of it yet unfortunately. Doesn't seem to mean anything.

Passama is a possibility but Clara is likely too early to be realistic. Anything can happen though so optimism is warranted

The Australian spec cars come with a bracket that the plate mounts to :)

I have been watching this for a couple of days now and I think you are jumping the gun. Mine is a December order and when you look back at everything it is not really Tesla's fault that this has happened. Planning the production run is done months in advance. So let's say late October at the...

Veda Prime is the one person you should be 100% listening to. He has a tracking service which monitors the factory, shipping and transport for Tecla's in Australia. It is a paid service at $15 per month but the information is top notch and accurate and doesn't include any of the speculation...

She is headed for the Aus/NZ port by the looks of things.

This is very possible. I don’t think we are getting VINs until they’re on a ship this time around. We are going to have to wait and see what ship it is.

Looks like he has :) Fingers crossed for everyone. WA might go into July just like they slipped into April. Feel sorry for you guys.

Remember we are at the start of May now. There are two ships in May which are potential candidates for shipping. The other thing to remember is it won't be the original ship that takes them to Perth. They usually have two ships to get them there.

They will notify you of the VIN usually via SMS. The source code just gives us early access to it.

Do not get your hopes up for this one. There is no confirmation that there will be any Teslas on this ship. There’s not even any proof that any Teslas have been built for AU yet.

I dare say this is in relation to 3s being delivered with the old Atom processor. NA vehicles means North America.

Unfortunately we won’t know until they either do or don’t. Fingers crossed that they do build them for us. I’m like you and should have already received my car.

If they build cars for Aus this quarter then you should be fine. If they don’t build any for us thennnnnn August or September will be the next batch.

Didn't Elon tweet that it only affects US vehicles? But apart from that I have never seen any vehicle manufacturer send a bulk e-mail saying they are taking something out of their vehicles. Maybe they would send it to auto news websites but that really is it. Even then those same sites have...

So far the clarity is from the SA's. If it was any other car manufacturer you would only have the sales person to talk to. Who would you like to clarify this from Tesla?

There are no Teslas on this boat for Aus. The factory closed before the Australian production run so no Teslas have even been built for us yet.

Hopefully some news soon so we can all be excited again and let the anticipation build once again.

It's just because there's nothing happening with the Shanghai lockdown so no builds going on. Will pick up again once we know production has started back up and what the impact to delivery timeframes is.

I am much the same. Early Dec order but missed the Q1 deliveries and got bumped to Q2. Initial estimate was 8-12 weeks. There are a lot of LR & P orders that this has happened to that ordered in Q4. Now with the shutdown and delays in Shanghai we don't yet know if we will even be Q2 deliveries.

Oh this sucks so bad. Was really hoping to get the VIN this month but apparently the world has other plans.

Now there is this article which has a statement from the fire department saying there was no Tesla or charging equipment. FAKE NEWS: A Tesla did NOT burn down a Sydney home last night - techAU

For someone who has just recently received their Tesla you seem very negative about the whole experience. I do agree that the gear selector is different to a lot of other cars but it is also similar to a lot of cars as mentioned. You mention it being a safety issue but if you were used to the...

It was reported it would but since has been confirmed to still be in shutdown.

I think it is more of just an unfamiliar environment for you. Many makes and models have the same setup with the gear lever as the Model 3 (Mercedes mostly). It is a very distinctive movement of the stalk and doesn't feel the same as putting an indicator on Probably just a case of getting used...

VINs can be allocated anywhere between the factory and reaching PK on the ship. You won't 100% get a VIN before the car is shipped. To make matters worse the Shanghai factory is still in shutdown and it is one day at a time as to when it will reopen.

Unfortunately not. I was one of the unlucky ones who ordered an LR in December and have been bumped to Q2.

Same for me. I’ve been told allow for an extra week.

That should be great. I would love to be able to do a trip heading west.

Thanks for posting this. Ah well looks like that will take out one of the lenders for a lot of people. Plenti I’m sure will take them on if they keep the rate at 2.99

It is a strange e-mail address and doesn't line up with any of peppers other e-mail addresses. I'm not 100% sure this one legit yet. You are the second one I have seen though. There are alot of others though that have not received this e-mail.

I saw this mentioned elsewhere but I have not yet received any notification. Was the e-mail from [email protected] or somewhere else?

Great summary of the new car. It seems like the MIC cars are built much better than the Fremont ones. The drop on the bonnet may actually be in design. You want the next leading edge in line to be slightly dropped so it doesn't catch air and whistle. Check panels on most cars and as you go...

Congratulations. Surprises are always the sweetest

I am FNQ as well. Our EDD will never appear as we get the vehicle freighted to us. Chrome VIN finder will still work though and mid April is when the next lot of VINs will likely come out.

I like the idea. Could you imagine the vandalism from jealous types if EVs got priority parking and able to use certain transit lanes. I am of the opinion that we all drive cars. Whether they are EV, ICE or Jet powered. We should all be able to use our cars for the same thing and nobody should...

For the sake of keeping it simple I say keep the EV badge on the Hybrids. Whether it is Hybrid or EV they both have a high voltage battery and could be deadly if not treated properly.

Looking at photos from the delivery center all of the cars do seem to have them.

I was told by my SA that the car would come with the EV triangles. Also interested to know the answer to this one.

This is what worries me with it actually being called Autopilot. It's just people are stupid and think oh it looks after everything itself. Maybe a name change for Autopilot or something that people must do so they know it doesn't take control away from the driver.

Congrats. Looks amazing 🤩

Congrats. Pop up a few shots when you pick it up

14-20 weeks from 01/02/2022 would put you as a Q2 delivery. It all depends though how many LR and P they put down the production line. Tesla may have say 500 orders for LR but if they scheduled to only build 450 of them then the remaining 50 will get bumped. Of course colour combo then plays...

I’ll see if I can help you out a little here. The Long Range and Performance models had very few built in Jan and Feb. Unfortunately for both you and me that means we missed out and will have to wait and see what April brings for builds. Cars will get allocated a VIN anywhere from straight...

I believe the order agreement says you are protected against price rises. Price decreases on the other hand can be passed on.
