    Australian Model Y Waiting Room

    Looks better? Not so frumpy? Better quality interior? Not sure…

    Tesla Australia WAiting room (Perth WA)

    A friend contacted me 2 weeks ago and asked for a referral code. I gave it to her. She was ordering a white model Y, long range with 20” ubertine wheels. Ordered it, and in excitement clean forget to use my referral. Has an order, no delivery date, no VIN. But too late to ask Tesla to use my...

    Model 3 Highland live now

    No indicator stalk is a ridiculous idea/thought. Just ridiculous. People can try to “justify it” by saying “ah people take use their indicators on roundabouts anyway”, which is just a silly comment. Most do, SOME don’t. 2 trunk motors? No FRUNK MOTOR, so still manual release? That’s a strange...

    Thanks. My mate has his referral code from me. I hope, though, that clothing comes back as a use as I am very unlikely to use Supercharger miles in PERTH! To get to one is a hell of a drive, and way out of my way!

    Thanks! And no way we will I be spamming. Just got a mate who’s now interested in a new Tesla rather than a second hand Kia Stinger.

    Australian Model Y Waiting Room

    Interesting. I swear the leading edge of my 3’s bonnet is fractionally lower than the bumper and the guard on either side. But I don’t mind. Most Ys and 3s I’ve seen over the years, THIS is the one panel gap where, if the bonnet sits up “where it should”, flush with the bumper’s, the gap...

    Referrals

    So now I am a Tesla owner, how do I receive a referral code to GIVE someone so they can buy a Tesla using my code? I used a code when buying mine so received 1500 credits in my lootbox. And the referee got, I believe, 3000?

    Tesla Australia WAiting room (Perth WA)

    So, WHY the initial jump to the first EV then Simon? I researched for TWO YEARS knowing I wanted one, a VW one initially but they’re still not here and I dislike the look of them anyways, before settling on either the Tesla 3 or Polestar 2. And THEN jumping on Tesla 3 after the Jan and Apr price...

    Mine changed from Tues 27 June at 1130 to … TODAY 26/6 at 1130. Very happy camper. Plenty of time with staff. Drove UP from Baldivis to Osborne Park delivery centre in VW Golf used as trade. Found car with 100% charge (excellent). Set it up. Drove home to Baldivis - about 90km. Got home with 89%...

    I can’t get over how narrow this car looks. I don’t know. Proportions all look wacky.

    Thanks all

    BYD Dolphin $38,890

    They’re promising Australia’s cheapest, best quality, EV. Given the MG4 came in at $38990, I’ll guess at $38500.

    What WAS this thread about?

    Tesla Australia WAiting room (Perth WA)

    $800 off the list of the black RWD. Still way over the WA State Govt EV Rebate threshold. I hope the hail storm we had in Baldivis this morning went nowhere near Fremantle docks!!!
  26. R

    Tesla Australia WAiting room (Perth WA)

    Yea ditto. Don’t like that they were outside during last nights severe hail storm. I’ll be giving it a good look over before acceptance!

    So my car had just appeared in the RAV with a May 2023 build date. It’s apparently on the dock in Fremantle having been unloaded today. Realistically when do you think I’ll get a real EDD? Still trying to decide on the trade/sale of my Golf. Thanks
  28. R

    Tesla Australia WAiting room (Perth WA)

    Please stay there and report back every hour!!! lol. Thanks. My VIN says my car is on there, yet my sales advisor at Tesla is not so sure and is still 100% convinced I won’t see my car until later in the first week of July. Which seems an extraordinary delay if my car is on board Lavendar Ace.
  29. R

    Tesla Australia WAiting room (Perth WA)

    Ah lovely. Thanks. Hopefully they’re off tomorrow, and into storage before the weather turns sour Tuesday. And that we get firmer EDDs soon. Still deciding what to do Re my trade.

    Paid about $20k on my account last night. Nothing from Tesla yet to say it’s been received. I paid $20 last Saturday to test it and got a text saying payment made and received to my account by Sunday. Odd?

    Tesla Australia WAiting room (Perth WA)

    Will the cars come off tomorrow then? If so they’ll be where? I might take a spin to check them out! Or will they unload on Monday?

    Tesla Australia WAiting room (Perth WA)

    I might not mind slower deliveries. First week of July = first week of new Tesla quarter. The first week of the last two quarters in January and April saw lovely price reductions!! And my sales advisor at Tesla PERTH says that even though my EDD shows June 18-July 9, HE believes it WILL be the...

    Tesla Australia WAiting room (Perth WA)

    Nup. Tesla won’t budge on the $18k trade in. So looks like I take CarSales $19.2k instant offer end of this week and hire a bloody car, for how long with an EDD so broad ? (June 18-July 9!)…maybe I wait one more week and see if I get more definitive EDD and a slightly less, but more than Tesla...

    Where are you supposed to see any payments you’ve made? I made a $20 “Test payment” on the weekend after having received my final invoice. I have an SMS today acknowledging “a payment has been received on your order RNxxxxxxxx”. But I don’t see where it is or can be reflected in my Tesla...

    My M3 RWD Delivery date just changed from June 24-30 to June 18 - July 9 My trade in advisor still says I’ll be early July. So he might know. Makes it difficult to plan for paying. I’m not keen to give them all my hard earned for a potential June 18 delivery, only for it to spin out to July 9.

    I thought it was illegal to do any tint on the front windshield???? In WA I’m pretty sure it is.

    Ordered a RWD Model 3 in PERTH on April 4. Got my Sales Agreement immediately along with “Welcome to Tesla” SMS having paid my deposit. Got the “A car has been assigned” SMS last Monday. Got the VIN couple days ago and found the car on Lavender Ace , arriving next Sunday June 11. My EDD is...

    TKS!! It’s on Lavender Ace due in Fremantle at 1.06am NEXT Sunday 11 June. That’s quick. How long from them until delivery realistically does anyone think? I’m not taking the Tesla trade. I will be selling privately so am trying to “time it”.. so as to not be without a car for too long. It’s...
