It seems there’s a lot of common questions that get repeated over and over. I’m thinking of making an AUS specific FAQ that we can add to over time, that might help newcomers out?

Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

i always thought NRMA insurance is available Australia wide , i think Victoria is the worst place to buy an EV with their 2.5c tax plus expensive Insurance
We added both Frunk and Trunk sound proofing from RpmTesla.com. We went for a drive then added the front and went for a drive. No noticeable difference. We then added the rear and went for a drive and it made quite an improvement, much quieter. I thought I was buying both but didn’t, only bought the rear. I know in a few weeks when car arrives.
What we put in my mate’s earlier this year.

If you want to reduce road noise while driving your Model 3, this will help. This 2 piece kit is completely self installing. It reduces road noise coming from your trunk and frunk while giving the areas a more finished look. No more looking at the green anodized trunk metal or the painted hood...

Remember to compare the net payments and marginal tax rate benefits i.e., pre and post tax on the novated lease, against any post tax loan option. The residual will have a GST component so you save part of it as I understand. Also, early payout penalties may affect your decision if you are equivocating on switching e.g., to a Model Y. Experts please chime in.

Because you don't own it. Isn't it $3,000? And that would generally be smaller than the GST saving.
So I'm hoping (assuming?) that my car will be on the Viking Passama since it's timeline lines up with the build date and EDD currently.
Looks like it's currently anchored off Shanghai and already a day behind schedule (it appears to have been due to depart Shanghai yesterday).
Forklifts blocking the pier?

I have to use a specific company chosen by my work , they said they can’t do anything until it becomes legislation. No idea what the timing on that is
Not great for those in NSW, but in Victoria you are still eligible for the $3000 rebate with a novated lease

I believe you have to pay the GST on the residual at step 3, so you only end up saving part of the GST.

Out to the coast, you mean Perth…?Guys. I still haven't received my odometer.
A few burnouts is okay with me but I think they've taken my car out to the coast or something...
Agree - the FBT chat has been done to death. Also the “when do I get my invoice” question gets asked every two pages.
They’re legitimate questions, but constantly recurring.
Yeah let's keep this line open for VIN allocations
That must be why the premium's less
