Alright guys it's time for me to bounce out of the waiting room after 6 months. I went for a beautiful sunny Sunday drive with the family today. The full glass roof kept the little one very occupied and the wife absolutely loves the minimal and spacial interior. We had fun with all the modes and...

I grossly overpaid for mine in ignorance of what they actually can cost online. Look on Amazon or eBay for 19" Gemini covers and pick the design you like most. Don't spend more than $200 I'd say. The turbine design is nice, but also the original Gemini in black looks excellent as do some of the...

I have paint protection and tint booked in for Tuesday morning. Unfortunately it rained today on the way home so she already needs a wash 😭

Really gorgeous in that full blackout with the rim covers. I have the same and they went straight on as well.

Thinking maybe a '97 Corolla could be a good trade 🤔

Best I never drive or touch it again just to be safe.

Christ I had a heart attack today. After getting home, I parked the car in the garage and went about my day. I came to open the garage later and the door fell off the rails and slammed down. It missed the car, but holy MOLY. 👀

Well, I finally picked it up and I must say my disappointment is at an all time high. It started at arriving at the delivery center. The staff were super welcoming and helpful and gave me plenty of tips in getting into the new car. After hearing of all the "earfuls" that the Tesla staff have...

I torn between an immediate ejection from this thread, and staying for a little bit just because this place has been my home and mental health support for more than half a year.

Ahh looks so good with the white interior. I went with black, but I was very *very* tempted by the white.

Told you blue was worth the extra 4 months wait 😎

Only WinnieBlues allowed.

I've got Saturday 9 am at Miranda. Then the rest of the day to install accessories and oogle at the new Dad mobile. 😆

Which DC are you going to?

I wonder what Tesla will do with all these Stinky Y's as people keep cancelling them. Surely, it's time to list them on discount and be upfront with the history instead of casually assigning them to new orders.

Mate I've been waiting 6 months since ordering and have had about 5 delays. It's been about 9 months since my initial test drive and inquiries. Not the Parramatta showroom floor staff's fault. Patience is a virtue.

Just a funny thought; the ex-GC cars are being delivered and I am now 4 days from finally getting my car after a VIN swap. Turns out that didn't save any time at all 🤷

Welcome. Yes, I think that is actually quite lucky to have a car available if you have just ordered this month. But I'm a GC survivor who is still waiting for the car nearly 6 months since ordering. There is no tangible difference between the 23 and 24 models if it IS a 24 model. The only...

Mate, the saga just doesn't end for you...

Sorry but the 6 months EAP was offered to those originally affected by the GC fiasco as some form of apology or compensation for the huge delay (and not even everyone was offered it!). From what I have gathered, Tesla do not have to disclose that they are still selling the GC cars nor are they...

Yes, Tesla would have assigned the vehicle based on the customer specs. Stinkbugs are a complementary bonus feature across the range.

Welcome. As a few have said, you have been assigned a vehicle that completed a luxury pacific cruise and holiday off the Brisbane coast last year. For those who ordered in August of last year getting a MY24, 2024 built vehicle, it is because they were waiting such a long time for their original...

I was told by a rep that the 6 months EAP was NOT additive to the 3 month referral. I think I have it in an SMS. I am happy to hear that that silly decision has been reversed and it's actually 3+6 months EAP.

Yep that's the exact one I am looking at on Amazon.

Please let me know how the ceramic coating on the interior goes! I have my eye on a product to use but am curious if it's worth doing to the black interior. I have ceramic paint coating and window tint booked for shortly after delivery.

You finally got it! What a journey. I am very happy to also be getting blue. It looks wonderful! Thanks for sharing this GC debacle with me and enjoy your new car! We pick up ours in 2 weeks time.

Just popping in to say fellow GC survivors, the wait is almost over. I can't believe not one but two shipment errors for MC people. Hang in there.

I commend your patience. Yes mine is missing too but I have a delivery date booked in the app. Not stressed. Thankfully I saved the VIN for quick reference for insurance purposes.

It seems to be a lot of people (or maybe everyone) waiting has lost their VIN. Nothing to panic about. It should be back soon.

My delivery date is March 2nd so I've got a few quiet weeks of waiting before the fun begins.

I'm picking up at Alexandria, off the Paganella.

I can't believe I will soon be moving out of the waiting room. It can't be real. 🤣

Huh I wonder why only the 2nd was available to me? Every other day was greyed out. Not that I'm complaining because Saturday morning is perfect. But *still* earlier would have been nice 😅

Yes! The SMS came! 2nd March was the only day available so I locked it in.

Bugger. The wait continues 💤

Come on Tesla where is the delivery schedule SMS? 😭

As above, no delivery SMS yet and hoping for Monday.

Most likely yes if your VIN hasn't changed from the GC. Someone said Tesla informed that their MYP production was lower and so the quickest way to get it to you was to put it on a new ship.

We're not getting the China refresh.

My Invoice says Model Year 2024 👀

So if I have a 2024 VIN, how do I distinguish if I have a MY23 or MY24?

My previous car was a "2014" MY15 car. It was originally purchased in late 2014 but it was the new 2015 model. Definitely made selling the car a bit confusing as people were asking which year it was.

Is there? Which is cheaper? As far as I'm aware: 2024 MY23 means it's first registered and delivered in '24 but manufactured in '23, thus the Model Year is 23. This is reflected in the VIN. Think of the LA customers getting the ex-GC cargo. 23-23 means that the customer bought a MY23 car and...

Bugger I was really hoping for a romantic delivery date with the wife but it seems the venue is all booked out.

Not to burst your excitement but I suspect that you'll get pushed out to mid-late March based on the MC and Paganella progress.

Where's the white interior though? 🤔

Mate I recommend posting a pic of the cable every day to Dronus (not fixed of course) just so he can be kindly reminded until you take delivery.

Not yet. I got the Arrived in Australia SMS on Monday and it appeared in RAV yesterday. I assume based on the MC timeline, we will get the notification to schedule delivery by early next week, but for Sydney most spots are booked out until end of Feb.

Oh gosh I read it as April 25th. That's a bit better! I have been dealing with US date formatting at my work for the past few weeks and now I just get so confused whenever I see a date. Example 10/12/23 10 December or 12 October?!? 😩
