Just my guess. There might be other reasons. When the GC was denied entry to Australia. I reached out to them about a refund for my order fee. At that point, I was close to canceling my order because I was pretty fed up with the situation as I sold my old car.

I think they might give priority to orders that haven't been fully paid yet in case it is canceled at the last minute. I've got a slot booked for next Monday. I made the payment today.

Booked! Can't believe how everything's just falling into place this time!

Just called Tesla and they wouldn't give a specific date, just the EDD in the app. Guess we'll just have to wait for sms, email, app notification etc

Yeah, you are right. I should say it didn't happen to everyone. I hope those with the ex-GC cars can have them delivered safe and sound. I believe Tesla will ensure the cars are clean and the batteries are faultless.

When GC was denied entry by DAFF, Someone suggested that Tesla might not allocate new cars to us and we were stuck with GC cars. Thankfully, that didn't happen. 🤣

I blame the media outlets and some youtubers for those comments, they just love to stir up anxiety about things like range and batteries to get more views and attention. Unfortunately some people totally fall for it.

I went with Temu instead of eBay because they deliver stuff more like Amazon. You get everything in one big box or a few large ones. 4PCS Wheel Cover - $157.92 https://www.amazon.com.au/dp/B0CK28Z4DX?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details Tesla Model Y Floor Mats 6 Pack - $150.99...

Found my VIN in RAV. Earliest EDD is still Feb 1, but I think Tesla might begin the delivery as early as next week. Finally placed my order for all the car accessories. They have been in my cart for months😁

I think the EV6 is designed for those who miss the traditional petrol car experience. They're even selling yearly service plans at premium prices for an EV just squeezing every last dime out of your pocket. And that's on top of the car's already hefty price tag and the salesperson's commission...

The new final invoice includes stamp duty, but we can claim it back later once we've got the car. Tesla have sent the receipt of the deposit few weeks ago which can be used for that.

It's wrong to mistreat call center and showroom staff, yet this doesn't justify the poor communication and lack of action regarding this significant delivery delays. In China, Tesla is compelled to be more responsive even if it is not their fault, due to intense competition and a critical media...

I think it is due more to a lack of competition than to a cult following. EVs from other brands tend to be more expensive and less reliable than Tesla's except for BYD which are competitively priced and are better looking in my opinion. But they still lack brand recognition and are yet to be...

All this time, the Stinkship at sea have probably emitted more carbon and pollutant than our EVs could ever offset. I thought that climate change would devastate agriculture and civilizations. But in reality either climate change is just glorified bs so no one actually take it seriously at the...

Well, unfortunately, that's not their mission. Tesla's mission is "to accelerate the world's transition to sustainable energy." You want to blackmail them with a good customer impression or anything like that? Sorry for the lack of a better quote: "Go f**k yourself" - Elon Musk CEO of Tesla 2023

Sure, it's not their fault, but that doesn't mean they can just chill and do nothing. They're lucky their cars are still popular, unlike some other brands' cars in that Stinkship. But hey, if I have to wait more than two months for a freaking Toyota that's supposed to be in "existing inventory"...

Tesla likely believes there's no need for compensation as demand for their cars remains strong. But if a significant number of us start cancelling their orders in favor of competitors' EVs or ICEs, it could trigger a sense of urgency. They would then be compelled to offer compensation to retain...

The binding is real and there's just no way out of it. 🤣

I'm quite tempted to get NL for my MY, so I checked it out. But it looks like it would reduce my borrowing power since I'm planning to get a new investment home loan in the next two years. Considering this I think I will stick with the cash option. Feel bad about paying more in cash, hope the...

I have ordered a Silver MY $69819, for which I'll pay in cash. After a $3000 rebate, the total cost comes to about $66,819. Would the NL even be cheaper than this?

That's what goes down when grown-up kids don't get their Tesla Xmas gifts.

Yeah, another daily dose of hopium 🤣

He'd probably gonna make a new account to keep dishing out more fake news.

yeah, it is generated by AI:)

GC's Tesla Delivery Day:

Please stop bro 🤣

Yeah, it definitely looks good. I went for midnight silver since I'm not big on washing my car a lot. The white interior just doesn't fit with that. Plus I'd miss out on a $3000 rebate.

I am in the same boat, sold my car as I naively believed in their estimated delivery. They have just pushed the date from 1-22 December to 24 December - 14 January. I need to figure out the bus network since the closest train station is 40 mins on a walk.

Camp outside stores overnight for iPhone. I remember that *sugar* happened in the early days, but who the hell would do that for Android??? hahaha I believe the current price for the MY is pretty decent, although that's not the primary reason why I ordered it. I guess I'm just an old boy who wants...

Ah, that clears up why Tesla's sales in China weren't great in Q3. I was thinking it was all about the economic troubles there, with people maybe leaning toward cheaper EVs. I reckon Tesla's pretty much in its own league, especially here in Australia. I also can't really see BYD or any other...

BYD sold over 431,000 EVs globally, just several thousand behind Tesla's 435,000. They would surpass Tesla in terms of total sales next year, considering Tesla's sales in China kinda collapsed in recent months. Personally, I wouldn't buy BYD yet in Australia. But I don't think they will remain...
