Ok, thanks. Mine goes in tomorrow for a ceramic coat and tint. I couldn't bring myself to flex for the PPF, as much as I would like it. Similar to you, I use a trusted place that has done my previous vehicles.

Full PPF? Can I ask how much that cost?

Not on the Adelaide boat they didn't. Refer my earlier post with pictures at the dock.

In the (poor quality) picture below you can see the amount of dirt that accumulated in just 2 days of driving. The area circled in blue is where the clip pushes in to the wheel and I'm sure this would wear the paint over time. The area circled in yellow shows the marks left when the cover is...

You definately need a tool, the clips are insanely tight. I used a kit similar to this. I followed these instructions. Once removed, they do leave marks where the clips attached to the rim. These buff out with some polish and elbow grease, its like a plastic residue from squeezing the clips...

Just braved the arctic temperatures outside and took the aero caps off. To summarise the experience, average - if you dont want them on, ask Tesla not to put them on during delivery. I did ask, but was too late with my request as they had already fitted them. After just 2 days of driving there...

First Adelaide deliveries were 9am on Saturday. Here's the first one out the door from that day, tucked in for bed.

I had the choice of Sat 9am to 11am, or Monday. So I'd say no Sunday deliveries. But not 100% sure.

Yay.

Pipped at the post, lucky guy. Looks awaesome.

Super pumped, 9am tomorrow delivery appointment for my M3P. First delivery in Oz?

Convert that to 0-60mph time and its 3.05 seconds. Not too bad at all.

EDD 20th to 30th June. Unlike our Brisbane brothers I dont have a delivery time yet, I have my fingers crossed for later this week though.

I took some picks down the Adelaide docks today. See them here.

So Leo Spirt docked in Adelaide yesterday arvo and departed this morning. I thought I'd go down and see what I could see. Looks to be around 50 M3P's only, no other variants that I could spot. Mostly red and white, but a couple of greys. Didnt see any blue ones.

Got a notification last night to complete a registration authorisation form from Tesla. Must be getting close now.

Once you get your VIN, check it here.

Me too! Looks like it just departed port in Freo.

Oh, I 100% agree. I'd delay delivery for a ski trip too. My comment was more a reference to there being no snow.

Thanks, Leo Spirit was showing as due on the 26th on MarineTraffic.com but has subsequently updated to the 11th for Freo. I'd say it was a glitch in their system or something. Where do you recommend is best to get tracking information from?

Ok, thanks for the heads up. Is it common to smash roof glass? Genuine question, I really have no idea if this should be a deal breaker for me.

I'd cancel the trip and pick up the car. I really hope these conditions improve before August......

Woohoo, SA delivery date just came forward to June 20 to June 30. This is despite the Leo Spirit showing an arrival date of 26th of June into Freo. Something strange going on there.

Try out Australia Post car insurance (backed by QBE). I'm at $1650 in SA, which was much better than the nearest I could get @ $2200. The 2024 M3P is available to select in their online quote tool.

For those in WA, looks like a new ship has been assigned for the cars sitting in Singapore. The Dugong Ace.

Assuming that ship will do a lap of Australia, then yes, would seem to be the case. I've been trying to determine the itinerary of the Leo, but cant dig anything up.

My M3P is on the Leo Spirit, travelling West East I beleive. Due in Adelaide 14 June.

Ripper information, thanks. Mine is also on the Leo Sprint. Due into Adelaide on 14th June.

How do we know which ship our vehicles are on? V3nom has a ship against his car on the spreadsheet, but I do not.....Is there some way to look it up?

I ordered pretty promptly. Not sure exactly when Performance showed up on the Australian website. I checked early in the day when it was available in other markets (like 5am) and it wasnt on the Oz site yet. Might have jagged it pretty close to going live later in the morning though. I believe...

Yes, I did.

Just had my VIN assigned. White/Black. Estimated delivery June 29 - July 20.
