Thanks a lot! This is very helpful information. I will follow up with those people asap. Your photo looks great! The PW is huge next to you guys. I always imagined it to be smaller based on videos online. I plan to start a Youtube channel about Tesla in Australia. Right now still learning...

Hi, I got quoted today by a reputable Gold Coast installer $16.5K for a 5KW system with 1 powerwall. Asked them questions about how loud the powerwall is and they do not know. Also asked them if two PW combined means 2x max output or drained in serial... Don't know..... Maybe one of the early...

Cool! This means whoever buys a S60 today can probably flash it to a P300 in 8 years time when the warranty expires. (Assuming there is a 300 kwh battery pack for the retrofitting in 2024.) Sounds like a hell of a drift machine....

dear Dborn, thank you very much for the assurance regarding the value of the Enphase package. I might just ask him to install a smaller PV array based on Enphase purely for research purpose. Congrats on your profits made in RedFlow so far. There is surely more to come in the future. I was...

Hi Tesla gurus, I am researching a fact for an educational YouTube video about Tesla. Can you please tell me if the following statement is true or false? "Currently (July16)Tesla only produce two type of Electric Motors in house. One big and one small. S60, S75 and P90D share the same rear big...

congrats to LGGD and other winners! Very lucky indeed! Please take plenty of photos and videos and share with us all. Wish you all a safe and fun journey to the mothership!

Yeah, I wanted the most up to date hardware for long term research at home. Only with Enphase it's possible to scale with time without buying new big inverters. Their 6th gen MI is about to be released now. But right now it's all or nothing betting on AC batteries for them. Recently they took...

Please send me your LG quote as well, thanks! Btw, I am also new member living on the GC. Confirmed order of a basic S60 coming in Oct.

Hello fellow club members, I have gotten a quote from my local solar installer (Gold Coast) for the following system: 24 panels 315w LG neon2 + Enphase S270 Microinverter = 7.5KWH roof top complete installation $13500 after solar rebate ($5800). 4xEnphase AC batteries fully installed @$8000...

Also have a new S60 on order. Confirmed and got VIN 150xxx on 29.June. Still no new status update about production or delivery date yet. I have been tracking their VIN numbers for a while and it has slowed down big time for model S. My guess there is indeed Osborne Effect at work here since...

Hi Eric, I have a base S60 with absolutely NO option on order. Vin 150xxx. Delivery is Oct due in Australia. My current ride is a wonderful LS460. Best ICE car in the world for me. Will not be selling it when the Tesla is delivered. Australia as a whole has only 28 DC chargers and next...

yeah, agree on the single phase installation. That's what I am putting up as well. Sometimes an EV driver just need that extra 20 km to make it home. Also having one on the map give any Tesla owner the confidence that there is a possible last resort for charging. Right now Australia is pretty...

Please take the free Porsche offer, normally young adults wants to blend in with the crowd, not standing out as some Eco Warrior. If you contact Tesla sales people they will connect you to their destination charging team. Once they approve your location then you will receive the HPWC sent by...

Thanks, Mark! Good to know such details. Will keep it in mind for trip planning. Cheers.

Hi, I plan to visit the store later this year after delivery of my S60. Is it possible to walk from the Star Casino to the new store? Sorry I am not familiar with Sydney. Also, is Tesla supercharger inside the Star easy to access at any time of the day? Cheers and thanks for local knowledge sharing.

Your German is really good. Very minor mistake "Mein Name ist" Yeah, your name would have been mistaken for Autobahn without a doubt. Out of curiosity, I did a bit googling on this name: Your name of Audubon indicates you are a very capable, systematic, and thorough person with talents for...

Imagine getting Evoke to go to Scenic Rims for a day: Flatbed two way trucking custom service from Sydney to Scenic Rim door to door: $1500 Fly in their driver and back: $500 Overnight for driver: $300 Wage for driver for 2 days: $500 We are at $2800 already. LoL.

pure back of the envelope calculator plus personal fantasy numbers: Tesla limo service + UberBlack: $100/day car depreciation @100% + 2 shifts with 2 drivers $500/day + admin cost $100/day = $700/day operating cost per car Breakeven: $700 / 20 hours = $35/hour As the one and only Tesla fleet...

Ahh... I don't think Evoke would let someone else drive their cars. Also, from what I heard, 90% of the time they are operating as a UberBlack fleet operator?

I have no imagination. Car will be called EVE. LoL.

Hi, I have a brand new S60 VIN 150xxx confirmed order. Delivery is suppose to be in late Oct. Have been thinking about renting it out to private user. Here is the perspective of a potential lender: Car cost $125K. Rental depreciation is 3 years. That would be $114/day if rental occupancy is...

Haha, I think the delivery guy is pulling your legs. Been shareholder does not give us any privilege to advanced infos. I have couple of shares in TSLA but more as moral support for Elon and his big ideas. To be honest, Tesla has some serious management issues at the moment and I would NOT...

Yeah, I am in the same camp. Had RX8, BMW 330 and currently on LS460. I just love the feeling of been pushed by a RWD. The S70D I test drove was simply too perfect in road holding. Here on the Gold Coast, Australia, weather is always perfect. Never gets cold and hardly rains. Very similar to...

Thanks a lot for the help. I have spoken to my solar installer and he will help me get it connected! Cheers!

Thanks for all the helpful input. After many times considering all the pros and cons, we will be ordering it without Pano and with Vegan seats. Cheers to all and looking forward to Oct delivery!

I am in the same situation. In the last few days I have changed the order from 60 to 60D and now back to 60 again. Ultimately I would like to spec the car like a classic GT car. Performance cruiser with minimum noise. The front motor is VERY audible if you have sensitive hearing. Test drove...

Haha, Lucky you! only have to pay $2500 in difference. Here in Australia we have to pay extra "Luxury Car Tax" for those options. For us it's a $3750 USD option! But those next gen seats are made by Recaro. It's worth it if you prefer those.

Thanks Mark! Good to know... So I assume everyone gets both chargers when they take delivery?

Haha, congrats to you too! Now I have the same Tesla fever like others. Can not sleep well and dream about the different options. LoL. From my own research, Tesla has rolled back the Next Gen Leather Backseat to the original version. This means only with textile seat we can have the unified...

Hi, I am absolute newbie here. So excuse me if the following question is obvious to current owners. In your list it says Tesla HPWC is included. This means every Tesla buyer gets a free HPWC with the car? Or it's even supplied and installed for the buyer for free at their homes? I have ordered...

I test drove a new facelift 70D few days ago with Pano+Next Gen. Yes it's a great combo. My fear of having leather is that my kids (2+5) will be destroying the backseats within minutes. This happened to my current ride even with extra seat cover. Does anyone ever order the Textile seat at all?

Hi there, I am total newbie here and in process of ordering a S60D. Have difficulty deciding if I should take the Pano Roof or Solid Roof. There will be two very young kids sitting behind. Was told textile seats are way more durable than next gen leather. Wife is not keen on Pano because...
