Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

[MadFruit]

Anyone heard of any LR deliveries happening in Melbourne yet or at least anyone being sent schedule SMS. Still nothing here with a mid December order.

Yes! My OD was end of November, I got my SMS last week, am picking up on Tuesday in Mulgrave!

Question for Victorians who’ve taken delivery or got their delivery texts, did your VIN appear in the VicRoads rego check or your VicRoads account before you got the text? Wondering if the car is registered before they book a delivery slot (and if so another website to keep checking )

No. SA called me on Friday (asking for money) and I asked him if he knew my rego yet, he said they assign them the day before pickup.

Any pick ups in Melbourne yet?

Tuesday!! I think they start from Monday since I had time slots starting from Monday... unfortunately, none that I could make

To all new collectors of their Tesla's, be sure to calibrate their autopilot and careful with it and stay attentive, as might unintentionally run down hapless pedestrians.

Pretty sure auto pilot is targeted at freeway driving and that road didn’t look like a freeway

Updated EDD overnight 14-28 September (from August-October) after VIN and Invoice Friday night. Order date 13 March. Melbourne. Excitement level just gone up! I’m thinking of doing a ceramic coating - should I?

LR? P? RWD? And build date?

Just an update.
My EDD was Aug 26 to Sep 3 and now it's changed to:
Aug 13 - Aug 26.

I have a question because I am going Gold Coast for the weekend this upcoming week, do they provide weekend deliveries or is it only on weekdays?

GUESS WHAT….. GUESS WHAT…..GUESS WHAT!!!!!

Awesome, crawling closer to April, then May, then JUNE orders!

So here's a thought ... The VIN allocations recently are LR and P (as we know) and not many (hardly any) RWD. What motor is used in the RWD compared to the LR & P models? Is there a supply issue at the plant with motors for the RWD? Or am I overthinking this a bit?

 

[Polarxp]

Just scrolled through and noticed no VIN‘s overnight or this morning showing in this thread, so I think this could possibly be a cancellation. Sorry for the people who had an order date before mine, I know how frustrating it can be. I was happy and also sorry for the people still desperately waiting for theirs.

Interesting thought... not sure what motor is in the RWD, but will be interested to hear from someone who does know.

I think I saw someone recently with a Saturday appointment for pickup in Brisbane. Cannot imagine Sydney being any different.

You should update your signature

Oh okay damn. Can anyone confirm how many days before you get the delivery message?
I need to prepare myself before I leave for Gold Coast.

I’m hoping that with the upgrades that it wont be long now and there will be a lot more happy dancing going on. I was checking last night on the source page - I don’t have the Chrome extension - so doing an old fashioned refresh manually, anyway I noticed when I did the LRW search that when I usually get to the LR it would normally show 5 instances and last night it changed to 3, then an hour or so, back to 5, then back to 3. So I was hoping that was a sign. Turns out it was.

I reckon that for every autopilot vehicle that nearly ran over a pedestrian, there was probably dozens more human operated versions that did too.

Its just a click bait story. Ch 9 news exercising their skill.

Are there instances where delivery SMSs are sent with a available pickup timeslots within less than 7 days?

In other words, if I haven't received the SMS and booked a time yet, is there any chance I could pick up the car this week? Need to make a decision on whether to travel for work this week, or next. Argh. Seems like plenty of other LRs being delivered in Canberra this week.

EDD 13/8 - 27/8. Pre-SMS received 10/8. Canberra

Just saw someone of a FB group get a VIN, OD 10th Feb

Omg do you have any other info? Eg. What state are they in, and what their edd is? I'm a 10/2 order and I'm mildly freaking out. In a good way.
