    Tesla Australia WAiting room (Perth WA)

    I can confirm the MYP is bloody awesome. I have so much to learn and get used to but day 1 has been great. The temptation to change to the RWD (and then the LR) have been there but I'm glad I stuck out the 10mths.

    14hrs and 20 mins to pick up!!! Some people picked up MYP today and confirmed the usual for the billionth time - yes has USS, yes has UMC, no of course it doesn't have the parcel shelf and don't dare ask if it has the extended rear seats which was just the worlds worst rumour based on 1 photo...

    Are you sure it's going to go up? It doesn't always and I haven't seen anything on the ATO website with a 23/24 range yet?

    Yup it's only carrying eastern states Teslas none for WA even though there are 500 that were built in February waiting in Singapore for a ship to WA. We're not bitter - ok a little bit bitter. But so much it outside of our control that you have to be more zen than bitter.

    Australian Model Y Waiting Room

    Just the armacup ships and Grande Mirafiori I think. There were no MolAce ships to WA or east coast in March. So if I count Brisbane arrivals (being first Australian port) then it would be Paganella (this was actually PK), Turandot, Morning Crystal and maybe Don Juan (can't remember if it made...

    Nope there's not truth to it, I think the SA and the OP just had a misunderstanding. He might have meant there used to be problems with Fremont made cars or that current Fremont made cars in the USA have issues but it's really not a current issue here. The Y LR will be made in China as they are...

    When do we run out of signature space to record the EDD changes :P My mantra of "at least it's a 2023" has been keeping me strong but it's been a long road. Not too much longer now though.

    It might be a struggle with the Port Melbourne issues but I'd like to think you'd get your VIN by end of May.

    Model S S75D for sale, VIC.

    It's a beautiful car. I can't believe it hasn't sold. And it has a parcel shelf :P :P

    Full Self Drive In Australia

    Back to OPs question - there is a good summary of what the 3 levels of Autopilot (included), Enhanced Autopilot (paid upgrade) and FSD (paid upgrade) at Autopilot and Full Self-Driving Capability | Tesla Support Australia to help you decide if the features are what you want. I think I'd...

    Tesla Australia WAiting room (Perth WA)

    There's not a lot of logic to it as you don't get assigned a VIN until it's built and assigned to you. You won't get a delivery in April unless it's a cancellation, you probably won't get a delivery in May unless it's a cancellation but if it's not a cancellation then you could get a VIN in any...

    I nipped out to port this afternoon in search of some Teslas but they proved illusive. Some potato cam pics for you to try and see if you can spot them as I couldn't. Photos were around 12:30pm. Full stalking marks go to @Dannerz who did find me on the Harbour camera :p :p Finding a point high...

    Yes there is the first MYPs for WA unloaded overnight from the ship. 85 MYPs and 15 YRWD. Very small shipment. Not complaining as my MYP is in there so hoping for a quick turn around with only 100 Teslas to sort out to clients. No update to EDD - still April 9-30th, no Delivery Approaching...

    Tesla Australia WAiting room (Perth WA)

    Orca Ace continued unloading in the dark and left last night. Somewhere in there is my car but the zoom isn't good enough to find. I believe Harald from TOCWA is going to get his drone up today and do a flyover of the cars which is something he normally does each time there is a Tesla ship...

    Australian Model Y Waiting Room

    Don't worry, you are doing it correctly but the MolAce website sucks big time to producing a schedule. That schedule is from a 3rd party shipper and it's not updated very often, so not very 'live'. You have to piece together information but this will take you from Fremantle to Brisbane part of...

    Bumping is a right of passage it seems. I laugh at my former self that assumed that as they delivered the Y RWD on time for first batch that it meant my MYP would arrive in November. Bwahahahahaha

    There was a ship last year that had an extended holiday in Singapore as well that was around 5 weeks. Go kick some Queensland teslas off Palmela and get an earlier spot :P

    Australian Model Y Waiting Room

    It is indeed but not unheard of. Especially with Armacup ships tied up in Melbourne it's all about getting Tesla's on whatever ship they can get their hands on even if that means putting QLD as the last stop instead of the first stop. Be grateful as you've 'hijacked' the Perth capacity for...

    I believe there will be alternative arrangement and go back to the early 2022 methods of getting Teslas to southern states which was road transport. There is also the options of - using Molace ships which go anticlockwise Fremantle, Adelaide (so can drop cars off!!) then Melbourne (bypassing...

    Fast chargers in Hotels.

    Most hotels have fairly slow chargers because guests have the ability to charge overnight so it doesn't need to be faster than let's say a Tesla destination charger or 3 phase power point. If you had driven from Noosa to Brisbane then it's around 150km so you would have used less than half...

    It is currently showing the regular scheduled mid month and end of month MolAce ships as they are scheduled quite far in advance - the next mid month ship is Sunlight Ace after Wisdom Ace. Other MolAce ships show up with less notice on Fremantle Port

    If you are considering purchasing inventory stock please be aware that most aren't actually in stock and you have an EDD it might be quicker to stick with your EDD than choose inventory that is still on a shop

    A number of manufacturers ship directly to Fremantle/Perth. Teslas used to come to Perth via east coast but last year started shipping directly to Fremantle/Perth.

    Don't get me started on this! Multiple ships have come to Fremantle/Perth with cars for other states (and/or NZ) and not had Perth Teslas on it. My MYP was built on 28th Jan and has been sitting in Singapore for a month finally left this morning to continue it's journey to Perth. It's due to...

    Yeah there is a few east coast cars on Palmela which is why I suggested it as the dates lined up for your EDD.

    Australian Model Y Waiting Room

    A few ways but this advice is general in nature and I can't say for sure about those ships 1. your dates line up with the expected arrival of a ship 2. you notice that your car is in the RAV database and it matches to when a particular ship is near port 3. your SA tells you (rare that they...

    You should also throw your VIN into the MolAce tracker and see if you are one of the few that are on an Ace ship https://www.molace.com/TRK/Search# Anticlockwise Route (via Singapore/Fremantle): You could end up on Palmela, Wisdom Ace or other unassigned ship Clockwise Route via Japan...

    The tugs are bringing Orca Ace into dock at Singapore. Here's to a quick turn around and off to Fremantle! 4 weeks in Singapore - time to swap the Tiger Beer for a Swan Draft :)

    Tesla Australia WAiting room (Perth WA)

    There was a few very early morning day 1 orders that didn't make the first 100 (well first 85 MYP as there is 15 RWD on the ship) which was weird. Hopefully the 16 days between Orca Ace delivery and Dugong delivery to Fremantle flies by.

    What city are you in and what's your build date? Might be able to give some guesstimates based on that.

    Australian Model Y Waiting Room

    So close yet so far. The EDD changes are super frustrating when you have to wait for a date to expire before you get a new one. I would have hoped that you Tassies had a shortened window by now but maybe you don't get those having a third party delivery? Fingers crossed your EDD update was...

    Tesla Australia WAiting room (Perth WA)

    Wow! Do you have an invoice that shows the build date? I think you might have picked up a lucky cancellation which is great as I think you'll find you're part of the 500 cars sitting in Singapore at the moment waiting for a ship to Fremantle. BTW don't get too excited by your date as if you are...

    OTR service station EV charging

    The OTR proposed in North Perth (City of Vincent) is struggling to be approved. It's on an old petrol station site and they are now trying to change the town planning scheme to not allow petrol stations at all to support their current refusal of the DA. There has been some ammendments to the...

    It won't be registered until the day before or the day of collection. Too many people would whinge about it being registered before pick up and them paying for days of registration not used :(

    Tesla Australia WAiting room (Perth WA)

    For the 100 on Orca Ace, don't freak out that your EDD has changed to April 9-30th. This is simply a much more accurate start to the potential delivery window seeing as Orca isn't due to Fremantle until 4th April. All EDD windows at this level of confidence are 21 days long but I am quietly...

    Orca Ace is on it's way back to Singapore to pick up the first 100 cars. It's draught has increased quite a lot to 9.9 so picked up a lot of cars in Thailand but will presumably offload some of them in Singapore, pick up ours and continue carrying the rest of them to deliver in Oz. Due to...

    +1 on this for @AyRe Keep a watch out for VK transfer ship Nabucco (I think this is a slim chance though) , Turandot (more likely), Grande Mirafiori (more likely) or Morning Crystal transfer ship Traviata (less likely) or Don Juan (somewhat likely). As you're in Melbourne it will happen when it...

    Did you ever try putting your VIN through their vin search to see if it came up? They'd only be booking cars that have definitely been unloaded so I'd say GM is your ship PS congrats on a pick up date!
