DK about the US. It available for retrofit in Aust starting now. Was going to be installed Mon but guy rang me and said waiting for the part to arrive in Sydney. I want to say "Luke, I am your father"

I booked in for the Boombox retrofit April23! It's confirmed now, costs $290

Tinting's on the inside. Ceramic coating still fine but I've only had car since Aug, car nice and shiny after I give it a wash. I had ceramic coating on my previous car (not via these guys) and it lasted several years and was within my expectations give our weather. Besides as a car gets older...

Yes I used back in Aug, they good people to deal with. Got the full ceramic and tinting package and still really happy with the result. Rear window tint looks good helps with the heat and have had no issues. The window above the driver I put the black mesh part of the sunshade I bought helps...

In NSW not usually until the day or so before pickup, you can see it on your Service NSW app once Tesla registers it

Yeah, I got mine the next business day but it seemed a bit low. I eventually used the carsales instant offer as they came back with a higher offer and the whole service was pretty fast and seamless

Tesla has cameras at the front, rear, and sides but they aren't really 360 degrees pointing downwards. The side cameras are more the blind spot monitoring and you can't see the gutter from them when parking. It's kinda of old school when parking into the gutter, the side mirror dips when in R...

With 1. I had one on my phone but honestly so excited to get the car I did a few things like check panel gaps (had an issue with rear tail lights but they fixed later) and that all accessories included that was about it. The SA leave you alone and come back to you like 20 min later but if you...

I'm glad M3 are finally rolling in soon, I've enjoyed my M3 RWD so much. On my DD I noticed the rear tail lights on the right were not flush (it's two pieces and there was like a 3-4mm misaligment between them but the left one was perfect) and the SA said it was "within specifications" and...

Thanks for this, it's most helpful. After only two weeks, we've managed to scratch two wheels! One was a light scrape when trying to park close to the gutter but the other looks like little chunks have been taken out.

Today is a Bank Holiday in NSW, so depending on who you and Tesla bank with- could be delayed by a day or so.

One mundane thing to do for those getting M3 soon is order the etag (that's what its called in NSW) bracket so you can swap out the etag. I tend just to leave the old bracket behind.

They sure spend a lot of money on Yutube ads though 🤣

I actually checked mine during dinner time on my mobile and saw the message about "Tesla is making changes that impact your order ....." and so went to my account. The whole family knew we got the VIN. But I think they come progressively (probably when you least expect it).

Congrats to all (M3 Ps LRs RWDs and even MYs now) who got their VIN over this past few days/week - Tesla is going to be back on the top of the Austn EVs sales charts for Aug and Sep for sure. I see quite a few Teslas on Syd streets already and there's going to be more and more in the next couple...

I have a VIN!!!! Estim delivery 27 Aug - 5 Sep

Me too, hopefully will come soon- I just ordered the standard White, Black interior, 18 wheels- nothing fancy at all

Still waiting for mine.... Hopefully soon :oops:

Yes hoping for some RWD VINs soon. One accessory I splurged on were these carpet floor mats from an Aussie factory. They really thick pile and feel very nice (I live in the 'burbs so carpet fine), as I didn't like the Tesla ones on the test drive, they seemed flimsy.

Veda Prime Tweeted yesterday "Am data gathering now. Not all Au Tesla are on this ship", referring to someone saying Morning Clara left Shanghai.

No, or at least no update for my account, I'm in Sydney with RWD ordered 31/1

Yes, hope some more RWD VIN allocations come out soon, Don't want to miss the boat 🛳️

Dude Where's my car 🤣🤣

I have this wording too. My OD 31/01

One good thing is at least Tesla is honouring the price you pay based on order date time. Kia isn't on their EV6 https://www.drive.com.au/news/2022-kia-ev6-prices-rise-by-4600/ This means $5k more on the EV6 Air plus you will loose out now on not getting (in NSW $3,000) EV cash rebate too as...

Yes at this rate it's inching ever so closer to my OD, maybe some time next week .... :)

I test drove a Model Y RWD on std wheels in Sydney at Chatswood, there's construction all around the Tesla showroom so rough roads and I felt the ride in the Model Y was firm but like a European car firm and not as bad as what the Youtube reviewers make it out to be. It's not a soft ride like a...

Yeah I bought from them too, good quality and price. I was bit concerned with the boot mat when they said they fold it into quarters to post out but I left them out in the sun and after few hours no more crease.

According to Veda Prime on Twitter and other sources, the whole Giga Shanghai factory was shut today and for the next few days for upgrades. M3 production then opens for the 5-17 July period, so I don't think we will be getting anymore VINs until at least then. Hopefully some more RWDs are made...

No, hopefully in the next couple of weeks 😀

I ordered Model Y RWD yesterday and was going to cancel one of them but now somehow trying to workout how to get both M3 and MY after all these price rises?

I'm tempted to change to Model Y from Model 3 now but does anyone know if official towbar will be available once MY start to get delivered? I have one on my current SUV but used more as a bike carrier.

Call received today too 🙁 Maybe they'll plan a huge RHD production run for Australia so the 14-16 week people and 5-7 month people (plus all those LR/P people who been waiting extra long) get delivered all at the same time in 2H 😝...... maybe not actually ....... who knows

Ordered the same M3 end Jan in Sydney too, no call from my SA yet but I guess they've all got heaps of calls to make while still serving customers and selling more M3s 🤣.

Not so sure now, Giga Shanghai's been closed due to covid restrictions for a few days now, could be closed for even longer. Once the factory starts up again, how far will the Austn & NZ RHD cars be pushed back then to make up for lost production? And the Morning Crystal is set to sail Shanghai...

The Armacup shipping schedule shows the Morning Crystal is scheduled to depart Shanghai 18/4, do you think that's the ship for the next round of Model 3s to arrive in Aust? Due in PK 2/5. I hope so....

Apparently there are on board one of the first shipments to Aust of a whole bunch of Polestar 2s as they are also MIC.

Can I ask (noob question), so does it mean all the Model 3's on this Morning Clara ship have been accounted for to those customers who have got an EDD already now eg in Sydney between in mid to late March? So cars will come off Morning Clara 3/3 in PK, truck them to Alexandria/Chatswood, Tesla...

I hope early Q2, ordered 31/1/22 Model 3 RWD White/Black Std aero wheels , still says 14-20 weeks for me. Can't mention the T word again until we get a VIN.

Hi I confirmed with my SA when I ordered, my Model 3 RWD (I'm not sure if it's diff for other models) only comes with the UMC, the charger that fits into the regular 240v socket. It doesn't come with a Type 2 to Type 2 cable, which you might need when you try and plug into a non-Tesla charging...

I'm like you, ordered same car but a couple of weeks later on 31/1 after my test drive through a SA at Chatswood. Hoping for March/April but expecting May/June. SA has been helpful taking me through the process but no need to contact him as still waiting, waiting, waiting ...... Already bought...

I hope so, I order my Model 3 RWD 31/1/22 and have 14-20 weeks still showing for now.

I have ordered same car specs but a week later than you. Can't wait
