    Tesla Model 3 in Australia

    Are you talking about the calibration that needs to occur before you can use some features? From the manual ... Calibration Model 3 must maneuver with a great deal of precision when Autopilot features are being used. Therefore, before some features (for example, Traffic-Aware Cruise Control or...

    I'm not convinced individual cars learn. Do feel like your autopilot learns over time?

    Tesla Model 3 in Australia

    Nope, minor miscommunication regarding invoice between Tesla and Pepper means mine may get delayed - but it's good to reflect on all the other things in life that do go well rather than focus on what didn't. There are always other people in worse situations than ourselves and so I am thankful...

    Tesla Model 3 in Australia

    I told myself I would just sit back and relax :cool:, but I've been watching this ship come down the coast for the past couple of days; checking the weather forecast and wind conditions. :D

    Tesla Model 3 in Australia

    Yeah and I'm sorry for others that have been waiting far longer - I contemplated not posting at all for the angst it causes. Tesla do seem to be struggling with these initial orders and I hope they improve communication. Thanks - no VIN yet.

    Tesla Model 3 in Australia

    Got an unexpected call. Delivery of M3P+ Red/White scheduled for 26th Sep; only ordered last Thursday. I was expecting to be waiting for at least another couple of months.

    Some insight as to how busy they are ... "We're a little swamped with inbound calls from people who cars aren't ready for delivery" ... and no this is not in reply to me. Breath, relax and enjoy the moment is my motto. #ChillMode

    The Tesla website needs a "Your call has processed in the queue" indicator - it would alleviate some anxiety for some people.

    Many reviews already have done this with mixed results. Door seals seem well worth it.

    Model 3 poll- The Tesla stretch

    My Model 3 will be $96,200 more than the car I am currently driving although to be fair I switched from a more expensive ICE car to the most fuel efficient ICE car 4 years ago in order to reduce emissions and save money for a decent electric car.

    RHD model 3 in Melbourne 28-07-2019

    True that - I divide the cost by the amount of seconds I'll spend in, looking at, thinking about the car and then all is ok. :)

    How does one justify it...

    Sounds very similar to my situation. Usually I am frugal when it comes to spending and my wife pointed out this is uncharacteristic BUT ... My wife understands how much I want to reduce greenhouse gases and this is one more step towards that goal. Investing in company that promotes cleaner...

    White Interior on the Model 3 in Oz

    I'm holding off ordering until the white interior is available. It looks better IMO and I suspect it will be a little cooler to sit on when the sun's been bearing down on an empty car. It's going to be the most popular Tesla sold in Australia in the next few years to come, so I'm not convinced...

    White or Black Interior Poll - Australia

    White looks so much better IMO. I'm not looking to purchase till then end of the year so hope it will be available by then. No kids allowed in my car so it'll be good.

    Tesla in Australia

    Sounds great meloccom. I'm looking forward to seeing people's reactions when numerous Model S's silently and quickly accelerate away. Parking seems to be first in, best dressed with two Ferrari 360 spiders relegated to the side carpark and the event seems to be pretty strict on the 8-10am...

    Tesla in Australia

    The link works for me and Yes, that's the event. I live around the corner from this and had no idea of the scale or variety of the cars (GT40's and a rare TVR were there too). Great for any car enthusiast (I'm only a half-enthusiast preferring to drive than look). Was great to see the Model S...

    Tesla in Australia

    I got to see the Model S purely by luck today. Walking around the corner from where I live in Terrey Hills there was a gathering of Ferraris, Lambos, Mclarens, Pagani and other "fancy" cars that meet there each month. As I ushered my kids around them I was totally stunned to turn around and...
