    Delivery booked for 16/1 in Canberra, 3pm!! Ordered 11 March 22.

    Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

    There mine goes too. I'm glad I haven't paid yet. What a rollercoaster this car buying experience is! 😂 I'm on holiday until the 14th so at least this means I'll probably get to pick it up myself.

    Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

    Also here. I am waiting for the probably inevitable bump back of EDD. Since the 16-30/12 EDD was given I always expected it would be right at the end of that, or just a little after. Given that I go on holiday on the 27th I don't really care if it gets bumped back by a fortnight or so but some...

    I believe everything coming out of Shanghai still has the sensors so we're all good.

    Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

    Unless the 8 day gap between Brisbane and Port Kembla narrows we'd be buckleys chance of a pre-Xmas delivery. I'm resigned to it not happening and having to have a mate pick it up while I'm away. I'm grateful that the car is finally coming but we really got the short end of the stick with both...

    Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

    Yeah im going to have to. Pick up can be delayed up to 7 days but that won't be enough and Tesla have no flexibility outside of that. I have a mate who's agreed to pick it up for me but i was really hoping I'd be able to do the honours myself.

    Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

    I don't know why they bother to give us a starting EDD which isn't anywhere near possible. If this is to be believed then Viking Passama is currently in South Korea: MarineTraffic: Global Ship Tracking Intelligence | AIS Marine Traffic The Armacup schedule has VP arriving in Port Kembla on...

    Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

    Invoice received and a 22/11/22 build date! Those of us who have the same build date, are we pretty sure that Viking Passama is our ship? It seems to be the only Armacup ship that fits the bill but if anyone has better info I'd be keen to hear it.

    Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

    It will come with the little carpet mats. Not all weather mats though, which I think the majority of Tesla owners will want. @Stokesy I got mine from Braumach. They look pretty good but I can't comment on the fit for around another month! My list is currently: INTERIOR - All weather mats...

    Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

    Mate I can't believe it finally happened haha. I thought this was coming in the first week of October and it's turned out to be the last week of November!!! I got an email at 3:31pm and noticed it around an hour later. EDD 16-30/12. I go on holiday for 3 weeks on 27/12 so it had bloody well...

    Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

    Dude, every second post of yours is your own theorizing and conjecture stated as though it's all cold, hard facts. You of all people should turn the other cheek when someone else posts a theory of their own because at the end of the day none of us know WTF is going on and particularly those of...

    That one is making every stop there is, including transshipment vessels at every Australian port unless I'm reading that incorrectly. We'd surely have heard something by now if there was anything on it. As it stands, there are no NSW/ACT orders coming that we know of.

    Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

    I think that ship has sailed. No pun intended. All of Q1 really should have been cleared this quarter but they've given us way too little by this late stage of the year. I'm glad to see some Adelaide action because they've had nothing this quarter. Neither have Brisbane, TAS, NT as far as I've...

    Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

    That is quality 🤣 Also no offence to Clue Thirst but it's a new account posting about a VIN with no screenshot so there is every chance that it's a troll post. If it's true it's the same spec as mine, well over a month later in OD and in a part of Australia that's already been pretty well looked...

    Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

    This is contradictory to what I received from the SA last week. They said that the delivery centre would continue to operate over the Christmas period except for on the public holidays. I guess if we just don't believe anything the SA's say then we can never be disappointed 🤷‍♂️

    Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

    Totally, and this has been the case for quite a while. It's partly why a lot of us have been feeling aggrieved - because it's oh so possible with all of the cars that Tesla churns out to catch up on a small market like ours but they're just not doing it. They're booking more space on ships for...

    Morning Crystal might still work for east coasters before Christmas. For anything after that the cars will reach our shores but probably not our garages.

    Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

    You mean like the Aug - Nov date range did? Tesla seems to have given it to everyone who ordered between February and June... 5 months of orders to be delivered in a 2 month window? Yeah that ain't happening. I would guess that at least for the May and June orders this new date range is straight...

    Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

    What Tesla has been doing for M3s so far in Q3 is definitely too little and, if there's going to be more VIN allocations this quarter, it's definitely all coming too late as well. Too late in that they're going to deliver the cars around the Christmas/NYE break which is annoying and...

    Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

    I think that's already mostly true. From what I've seen Melbourne is the one city that's had a decent amount of action this quarter and most of the Feb to early March orders look as though they have been assigned. They've just left some gaps so there are still people in that order range who have...

    Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

    So just Perth VINs for the whole week? Even worse than I thought 😅 I'm completely bemused at how this is all working. The cars are there. They're producing more than ever but all they want to do is send Y's over!

    Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

    Well another week down and another disappointment. I really thought something more was going to happen last week. I didn't follow the forum closely but I think I saw a few VINs for Adelaide, a few more for Perth and a few more for Melbourne, although Tesla did some Vindian giving so potentially...

    Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

    I called the Tesla shop here in Canberra yesterday to ask whether the deliveries would cease over the Christmas/New Years period. Apparently they will pretty much just close on the public holidays but continue to operate between 27th-30th December and straight after NYE. This makes it awkward...

    Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

    I ordered a brand new car and I'll be getting a brand new car. Given you only ordered 2 months ago I'll forgive you for being ignorant to how people feel who ordered in Feb and March and have had to continually watch LR, P and MY orders fly past their own, or even other M3 orders from different...

    Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

    Well, another week down and another disappointment. Melbourne and Perth are the only cities that have been allocated more than a token number of cars this quarter. I feel for the VINless people in each of those cities who have significantly earlier order dates than others who have received VINs...

    Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

    I do hope that's true but I don't think your SA would actually know that information even if it were true so they may just be having a guess and trying to look knowledgeable to the customer. Still, let's see what the next 48 hours brings 🤞🤞

    Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

    I dunno... the December quarter is a little different to the other three. I don't know how it's worked in previous years but have they previously delivered cars between Christmas and NYE? It might be a case of if it's not delivered by the 23rd, it's 2023 for us.

    Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

    As do I. I'll be disgusted if they don't send a significant number of cars that we haven't heard about yet. They've delivered/delivering 2 weeks' worth of M3 orders for half of the country so far this quarter while sending ship after ship of MYs and bringing wait times down to as little as a...

    Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

    So we're at the end of October and there are no more Armacup ships coming after Don Juan. Possibly other shipping lines but who knows. In my heart I'm not real confident about there being any more ships coming before Christmas (based on zero facts or knowledge mind you). Is this correct that at...

    Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

    If one of those was going to Canberra I'm pretty sure it was the one full of Y's. So for anyone picking up their M3 from Alexandria you can be confident that it's on its way.

    Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

    It would be a bad strategy because if Tesla actually got me to the point where i was so pissed that i cancelled my M3, i can tell you now that i would not be ordering a MY or any other Tesla for that matter. They may have the best cars but I'd still boycott them for good and buy from their...

    Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

    I think pretty much everyone is aware of this by now. Every company in the world is going to have a product line that delivers their highest margin. It doesn't mean that they forsake their second highest earner. To be bringing MY orders forward 3 months while M3 orders push even further back is...

    Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

    Exactly. This is the part that sh1ts me the most. Y orders that had Feb-May 2023 EDDs have suddently been brought forward to November deliveries while 3's get bugger all! Kills me

    Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

    I can't speak for anyone else but I'm just a bit over it. With a 11/3 OD I thought it was a sure thing that I'd get my car delivered this quarter but with Tesla just drip feeding our market with a token 2 weeks' worth of orders only in select locations, it doesn't feel like that's much of a...

    Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

    That was a MY ordered in June. I saw the post and got my hopes up for a second which were swiftly quashed. I can't believe we're 20 days into the quarter and all we've gotten is VINs for around 2 weeks' worth of orders for the GC and Sydney, and not even all of Sydney!

    Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

    Given the shemozzle that it's been so far, I'm kind of expecting that this little VIN-sprinkle will dry up after Tesla has cleared 3 weeks worth of orders and then they'll move on to other markets or domestic orders again and then we'll all REALLY have NFI what's going on! 😆 It's certainly not...

    I don't want to be a negative nancy but the screenshot showed nothing and I remain skeptical. With an OD of 11/3 and also a white/black RWD I've got no action in my account. I'll check back tomorrow.

    Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

    Ouch. I spent $1k on a service which included a new radiator. It is what it is. Let's not forget that this is one of the reasons that we've ordered an EV - to save in the long run on fueling and maintenance. The lack of action and preference to deliver Y's is really annoying but logic says that...

    Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

    I think it's too soon to be drawing that conclusion. It's only days into the quarter so surely there's still a good chance of delivering early/mid March orders. I'll never cancel my order anyway. Not a chance.

    Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

    2 weeks ago I started getting really excited again. I bought more accessories and started talking about it to everyone again. Now I'm just getting frustrated (again). It's the MY situation that's sh|tting me the most. Sending MY August orders before M3 February orders... come on!

    Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

    I get that but it just did happen with MY's getting VINs this week (apparently). It can't just keep happening indefinitely. At some stage they have to clear the backlog of 3's going back to February.

    I can't watch the video from work right now but I recall another poster saying a few weeks ago that in Japan RWD orders had been filled a lot further along than LR and P. In Australia it's obviously the opposite but if there are a lot of LR being produced right now for other markets they may...

    Me when I see a model 3 driving around: "Oooooohhh there's a Tesla, that's what I'm getting! So excited" Me when I see a model Y: "Oh Damn you model Y's, jumping straight to front of the Damn queue" Moderators Note: Disguised F bombs replaced with the alternative Damn.

    Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

    I'll also be pissed if this happens. The MY being brought forward 3 months is annoying as it is. I'm feeling like progress is so close now that my interest levels have picked back up again, enough that I bought a few more accessories on the weekend. Last time RWD got very little love but the...
