Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

[sishome]

Lucky bastard. Mine's almost the same (but I have the stock rims) I ordered in Sep 23! No text for me. So much for delivered in order. whaaaa

Well, not sure, not sure... When you will eventually pick yours, yours will be new and shiny, but his will be used and dirty with pubes and farts.

I was convinced there is no such order to this process. Especially the last bit, moving out of port to the DC because logistics will definitely not pickup and deliver cars in order, that would take forever. Hope you get your text tomorrow.

And I’ve seen White Long Range models moving forward faster than the rest, perhaps they aren’t in demand as Tesla thought. They probably have more stock than orders because I’ve seen people ordering in mid/late January being assigned their cars from ships that have already arrived.

 

[Caine_LA]

Which ship was it on?
Ps exciting times!!!

On the Don Juan that unloaded in early January.

 

[Caine_LA]

Nice!
What's your plan to get out to Mulgrave?
I'm trying to figure out the trip from Bendigo when we go to pick up our MY.

Waiting for the 6:30 am train at the moment, will get to Southern Cross and then either catch a connecting train, or if I’m feeling lazy grab an Uber - looks to be about a $60 drive to Mulgrave though!

Yeah, that Uber drive from the city is what got me too.
Enjoy the pickup!

Train to Springvale(Cranbourne or Pakenham Line) then 10 minutes Uber up the Springvale Road.

Yeah my guess from what I've seen posted here and driving around Melbourne is that Grey and Blue are more popular than white this time. Probably because you see so many of the old models in white. That doesn't bother me though, for my tastes its still my favourite.

Sounds like the best option, thanks mate!

 

[Tony Soprano]

I think that's a big reason.

The new ones look great in white (especially with the black wheels), but I didn't even consider white because I feel like at least 80% of Teslas I see here in Canberra are white.

 

[Rosier]

Sounds like the best option, thanks mate!

Happy to help. See how you go

 

[EVGL]

I agree. no point ordering earlier as it is not based on how early you order

 

[EVGL]

Anyone picking up their Highland from Chatswood in February?

Yeah almost every other older Tesla I see is white. But I haven’t seen a lot of white highlands in DCs though. People are going for other colours. Grey seems very popular.

Someone’s getting the text tonight.

Mine changed yesterday around the same time to 12Feb 19 Mar.

 

[aaron.m]

Couldn't help myself. Went for a drive to check out how many cars were in the parking lot at Holden site and surprising only saw 14, no white, and one in red - mine?

Why are they social distancing

more proof they are operating on a last in first out inventory strategy!

I ordered in October, not quite last in but yeah, I'm sure there are people that ordered before me that will likely get their car after I do. Depends on config also I guess.

Yeah I was mostly just whinging / being facetious
