    Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

    Mine was on that vessel, got offered 8th or 9th of March only by the website for delivery. Out of town then, rang up and booked in Saturday, so my take is don’t assume what is offered on the web are they only possibilities.

    What to expect when you're expecting (Australia Delivery Process)

    The form will have the VIN, use this to look up the RAV database which will show if the car has been registered. Or call them.

    Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

    For the registration form, fill in the bits highlighted in yellow (well mine had highlighted bits) and send to [email protected]. In what seems to be the Tesla communication style - I couldn't see anywhere in the account where it says what to do. I rang the local Tesla office and asked...

    Probably. But as has been written here many pages ago, Tesla appear to build in batches not to order. So if they're not building a batch of cars to match your order this month then someone who is after you in the order queue may get the car as it was in the batch they built. An...

    Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

    I've had approval for about 2 weeks, but no firm idea on when the car (6-9 months/Dec22-Jan23/TBD/Dec22-Jan23) so don't know. I imagine they will forward the money to Tesla once an invoice is created or when we get on the phone and tell them its due.

    Yes, have the $15K loan locked in. Its all done online and quite straightforward. One thing to be aware of if you have a partner is you fill out the income and expenses questions, and so does your partner.

    Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

    Welcome to the world of the Australian waterfront. It's a combination of a combative relationship between wharfies and employers and once services are booked ( eg pilots,tugs etc), very very expensive to change. Cheaper to keep a ship at anchor for a weekend than bring it in at times.

    Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

    I changed the colour of my LR with 19" standard wheels order in that scenario, the ordered defaulted to the new standard (18") with no refund. The change of wheel size didn't bother me, but if I'd changed colour a week or so I would have avoided the price rise.

    A while ago the MInister for War and Finance mentioned that we should look at EV/Hybrid for our next car for green reasons more than anything, With fuel over $2 litre - that clinched me. While EVs don;t use fossil fuel, I wonder about the environmental side of battery raw material extraction and...

    If they were offloaded, they can sit on the wharf for a day or two, dpeending on various things like - have they been precleared through Customs (they should have but not a guarantee), are there trucks available to transport them or with the delays have they been allocated to other jobs.
