My theory doesn't work like that. There are two lines but there's always prioritisation, same as two teams in the company when one team is idle they could help out the other. Also there's resource allocation, supply, logistics and all sorts of prioritisation that could happen.
Sold my Subaru through Car Sales - using the "instant offer" - accepted the second one of these - higher than any offers from private buyers and way higher than the trade in price offered by Tesla.And another Canberran. There are dozens of us, dozens!
Any Canberran suggestions for local places to sell my old vehicle. Lot of KM's, but runs fine. Tesla's quote was so low that I knocked them back. Hoping to avoid full private sale, that's never a fun time.
Should have also mentioned that the instant offer buyer was a Canberra car dealership.And another Canberran. There are dozens of us, dozens!

Thanks!
But what happens in the case that after 3 years the government decides to scrap the FBT exemption?
Yep this issue is real and what @Jusebert was alluding to earlier.
The ALP's announcement during the election campaign was that they'd review after 3 years "based on uptake". Whether that would stop it entirely, limit new access to the scheme or adjust the FBT rate is anyone's guess.
The UK introduced a similar policy and apparently it drove EV uptake, mainly from large businesses buying large fleets, which then stimulated the second-hand market. I suspect this is where the idea came from.

I will have claimed all of the purchase before then (probably all in the first year), so I will have avoided all of the FBT on this purchase, even if it changes in three years time.
Also in Canberra… giving my VW to one of my kids. If your kid isn’t old enough to drive yet .. well they will be by the time the Tesla arrives lol

Tesla Australia forums on Facebook getting invoices and VINs for Model Y.
Why are Model 3 aspirants being treated as second rate purchasers?
Getting very ticked off at this point.

I do find it frustrating that people who have orders for less than a month are getting VINs before people who have had orders for over 6 months. I guess there’s two production lines, but it’s frustrating nonetheless as someone who is currently vehicleless.
That's smart, the best way to tackle the increasing interest rates. I waited to long to put in my application thinking what if it expires, and now I have to apply for one with higher interest rates at 4.99% before it goes up even further.
Can you please let me know how was your application process with Macquarie and what is the early pay off fee they charge ?
And may I know your OD please ?

It's no consolation however the Tesla experience between ordering and actually getting your car has always been crappy, wait until they tell 4+ times that you've only got 10 minutes to actually sign the papers and drive off in your car (not an issue as they don't enforce it, but they do want you out). Most owners on here have been messed about, unfortunately the spike in demand post coming out of lock down at the end of October and then the COVID situation in Shanghai has made things worse.
Nobody really knows when you'll actually get your car, however it's very likely that once you do get it that this whole schmozzle will be a distant memory as you delight in using your new car.
I sold my wife's car on Carsales in January - couldn't beat car dealers away with a stick and ended up selling remotely to a Sydney dealer for my asking price because they wouldn't leave me alone (first time for everything!). That's the good bit. So then I ordered her a Tesla on 30/1...and she's still driving my old ute around. To be fair, she has been very patient (and I've been riding my bicycle a lot!).
Sorry. Wrong place to ask but I can’t find the right place. Using these forums on my phone is a bit hit and miss. Just keeping in the Australian forums is hard!!
Anyone in PERTH can you please answer as I’ve yet to sit in an M3. The upper door panel inside, above the armrest, where you put your elbow, is it hard scratchy plastic, or is there a bit of swigginess there? A bit of padding? I must find one to sit in one day.
