Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

Do you get notification via email or text message? Or this is something we need to check in Account portal?
I have received Vin on 17/01 but no invoice has been issued so far.

I didn't receive anything. Just happened to check my order page again and it was suddenly there.

I thought that we had to apply for it to recover the cost but I saw somewhere that it appeared as if the stamp duty was rebated on the final invoice.

Check this out: SA, Vic and NSW proposed EV road user charge

NSW RWD owners might want to check with your SA whether this is correct in case you later have difficulty with claiming it back. Based on the wording of the Act I can foresee that when the cars arrive at the Tesla centre and they actually to go register them that they'll be told that there is no Stamp Duty.

Vostok points out that the duty shouldn't be charged in the first place based on current legislation.

The NSW government website on the rebates make it explicitly clear that you have to apply for both the EV rebate and the stamp duty waiver yourself, separately. Don't ask me why they couldn't have had an automatic process done through the dealer/carmaker.

Rebates for electric vehicle purchases

The legislation did pass too late and so had to be applied retroactively for those who purchased before legislation passed. Maybe they couldn't be arsed making two claims systems.

Subject: Tesla Final Invoice

Interesting, there's no change on the text in my account. Still says "We will shortly upload a copy of your final invoice to your Tesla account", but if I look to the right under "Documents" there is a link to "Final Invoice 11"

I'm curious if any of LR's people are going to get VIN by the end of this week.

@DanSyd I guess, we are together, waiting for LR BLUE WHITE INTR, OD 13-11, VIC

No VIN, nothing - this waiting process is killing me

Anyone ordered the RWD in December received their VINs?

Not me. I ordered the day after you. Same specs and location.

Ordered 16th still waiting..

Same here. For NSW EV/stamp duty rebates can we start the application for it as soon as we receive the final invoice or do we have to wait for delivery?

EDIT: Just got my final invoice.

Nope, it requires you to provide the proof of registration entitlement which apparently would happen a day or two before your delivery.

Just received a message from my SA:

Hey Dale,

All our Feb/March cars have been built and are inbound. We are expecting the final matching to take place at the end of this week and early next week.

Should have more information for you then.

Take from that what you wish. Hope he's right.

Have you been in a good amount of contact with your SA?

 

[DAL333]

Have you been in a good amount of contact with your SA?

If you don’t mind what have you been emailing saying?

in the beginning it was noobie questions prior to finding this forum. Then there was a bit of back and forth around inclusions in the 22 model builds like the new ryzen cpu etc. It has all been via text and one phone call. I messaged him this morning to see if he still thought Vin assignment would happen this month as i was curious with chinese new year coming up and that country basically goes into shutdown during that time.

My SA just called me to say that there had been a bit of a delay at the factory with white interiors. Car will still be delivered in March, but I would not see the VIN until the 5-7 of Feb. I’ve got a white LR with white interior ordered. Order date was 19/11.

Regards,
Stephen

Vedaprime did mention VIN allocation normally takes a few weeks anyway so it's probably not abnormal that you do not have one yet.

Nope, it requires you to provide the proof of registration entitlement which apparently would happen a day or two before your delivery.

When I showed up to pick up my car in November, the first thing that they did is to get me to sign a document confirming that I had taken delivery of the car. Then they handed over a Tesla folder which contained my car registration which is what you need to complete the rebate application.

They then got me to open the Tesla app to check that it had connected to my car.

They then walked me down to the car park to take me to my car whilst checking that I'd read the manual for the 10th time and reminding me that I've got 10 minutes to check the car blah blah blah. IMPORTANT: whilst they are doing this open your Tesla app, select "Controls", and the press the "Honk" button. A lot. The SAs love it when you honk the horn whilst they're trying to rush you.

What if I decline to sign anything before I see the car? BTW loved the ‘honk’ instruction would do that definitely …. atleast it will make the carpark echo( my giveback to Tesla for the killing wait times)
