    Big announcement on EVs & emissions standards coming from federal government this Wednesday

    Honestly, I'm just looking for a good policy that starts small and moves us progressively to a goal at a fixed date. Like the phase out of all gas cars by 2035 or something.

    Today was the big day, and I'm pleased to say that it was everything I thought it would be. My thoughts: Suspension: don't know what everybody was complaining about. It's way comfier than my CX-5. If this is comfort suspension they they are bang on. Acceleration: holy fork balls! This is...

    I have a weird question about door handles. What colour are they by default? I'm seeing lots of people with black door handles and it looks awesome but I thought they were silver by default. So what's the deal? Do the colours of the door handles change based on the colour of the car?

    I paid in full and my EDD was converted into a real date. But I got my VIN before I paid and that has not changed. So...not sure if this one data point proves anything but there you go.

    ...so, whose watching the boats (and waking up at all hours of the night) because it looks like the Turandot is almost at Port to dock.

    There can be upto 4000 cars on each ship I think. The dock at port Kembla can house ~40000 cars. The Tesla SA I spoke to said that this is one of their busiest times ever. Three ships full of Tesla's are arriving in Port Kembla this week. It's all happening. They literally can't put the cars...

    Alrighty, I'm locked and loaded for the 28th. Just got a call from the SA (what a champion) giving me the rundown on how delivery is going to work (this came with an additional text with similar instructions). One tidbit that they said that is worth sharing here: they said that, right now in...

    I did not because I was convinced it was on the Paganella or Turandot. Oops! Thanks and I hope everybody gets theirs soon too. Not long now.

    So, despite Paganella and Turandot docking Friday/Saturday (before the 28th) what do we think? Was my car on the Grande Mirafiori? I'm 99% certain it was.

    Okay @Enters , it's officially just passed the "Black Bar" territory in the schedule and the Grande Mirafiori has not moved. If it still has not moved by EOD today then I'm going to suspect that it's going to continue not moving until the end of the bar (Thursday).

    I can understand that frustration. At the same time, it's been 9m3d according to an App on my phone since I placed the order...what's an extra two weeks at this point lol. :)

    Sorry, which bit is the joke? Was that not in your EDD or is it only having two options?

    Australian Model Y Waiting Room

    I don't know what the black means but, as the Turandot did not come forward at the same time I am inclined to disagree with that interpretation. I guess we'll know if it's still there on Wed. The only real change that I can see is that the Paganella was moved back one day to Friday.

    Sometimes that are called RoRo ships, or "RO" for short. This just stands for "Roll on, Roll off" and is pretty much the same thing as "Vehicles Carrier" since it describes how the goods get on the ship.

    Australian Model Y Waiting Room

    My understanding, from forums and one SA, is that it usually indicates that your car is now off the boat and in the dock...but...that could easily be false information. All we really know is that Tesla sent us a message saying "soon".

    Australian Model Y Waiting Room

    Unless you get your car before the day after the Turandot docks I don't think we can say for sure which boat your car was on. We're certainly not going to be able to tell the difference between the Paganella and Turandot based on delivery date if the current AA Terminal timetable is accurate.

    No shipping updates expected until Thursday at which point in time: Berth 105: Paganella docks. Berth 106: Grande Mirafiori leaves, Hoegh Jacksonville arrives (only for 16 hours) and then swaps out again for the Turandot between midnight and 8am on Friday. So, it's going to be a long few days...

    Was trying to figure out who QUBE was from the AAT schedule and it seems to be these guys: https://qube.com.au/ports/automotive/ Good to see them really try to drive the point home how hard they try to make sure nobody's car gets scratched up/dinged.

    In other news, the Grand Diamond has docked, as expected: We should expect that to be replaced by the Grande Mirafiori tomorrow morning as @Enters said yesterday. No AAT Birthing Schedule update yet today.

    This does not seem like a full sentence? Or maybe it's just missing consequence. Are you exclaiming that the price is high? That you have changed your mind one way or another? The crowds must know!

    Perhaps, or maybe it's just how supply and demand works for these things. I guess enough people are willing to pay that 10% surcharge that they can charge those numbers and still get a steady stream of customers. Also inflation. A 10% increase from where they were before would put it at about...

    Yes, mine is black and it is in one of the three boats sitting just outside of Port Kembla now. You can see my EDD in my signature.
