Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

[PcS000]

No wonder the factory lot looks so empty. There are so many cars there

 

[Hoopyfrood]

LHD as expected with that port

Yep. And almost all shown are Model Y.

Where are you getting your car delivered? If it's Sydney, then you're the second example of the "queue" not being what most of us would expect it to mean.

The peoples republic of Victoria
But I would have thought that's irrelevant.

[Ib38]

Dude Where's my car

Different "queues" for different delivery centres, but I feel for ya regardless. (enough to refrain from making a Pyongyang of the South related wise crack!)

This wait is driving me crazy. Order date 9/12. No contact from SA since the stock drafted email alerting us to the delays on the 19/5.

Ordering my car in December, I was sure I'd have it before my daughter would arrive having over 6 months for that to happen.

Well waters have broken, so now my new Tesla will need the car seat fitted for the first drive if it ever arrives.

Your order date is so old!!!! Did you order a M3 P?

EDIT: just saw your updated sig... yep, not much love for LR's either

 

[De4thsCh1ld]

Yeah us LR and P orders have been given the cold shoulder. I was so close to ordering a SR, but I had a bit of a windfall at work and got enough to jump to the LR.

If only I'd had stayed with the SR, I'd not have known about the no communication, long waits or the amount of forklifts that are produced and sent instead of Model 3's

Hang in there mate, looks like VINs for LR models are being assigned for orders 5 days ahead of yours so your wait is surely nearly over!

 

[neuralnetwork]

I feel for the people that ordered last year and still don't have their car.
I ordered a RWD on 26/02 and even that feels like an eternity ago. Hoping I can make the Q3 delivery push

Cars in this luchao terminal is not heading to AUS or NZ. Ships to AUS load cars from Haiting terminal.

 

[garylovesbeer]

Serial numbers (the last digits in a VIN) are mostly allocated sequentially in manufacturing (lowest available number) But from an interview i saw with a Tesla engineer, inventory is built up at each of the the panel pressing, body welding and paint shop sections and that's where a VIN is assigned to the body. They don't run in parallel with the guts adding line at all.

The formatting of the invoice seems to add credence to this theory.

[Newspeak84]

Hello all.
First post.
Ordered M3P 14th May, so under no illusions.
Have really enjoyed reading all the posts here.
Reading this forum may become my new hobby.

 

[Ormaus]

Mine too.

Only LRs with the date pushed out or is it RWDs too?
