Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

[schnaxxl]

One of the reasons I did a straight swap, and then sold the car later.

My understanding if wanting to sell first.
1. Do a plate exchange for new plates for personalised plates and put personalised plates on hold.
2. Sell car
3. Collect Tesla
4. Do another exchange for the personalised plates for the new plates and surrender.

I also can't see any online way to do an exchange -

Apply to exchange existing number plates between vehicles

You can exchange number plates between 2 currently registered vehicles, without changing the registered operators of the vehicles.If either set of plates being…

that’s great, thanks
I think I used that form last time, so should be straightforward if I can keep current car for a day or so after Tesla arrives

I just saw this posted on Twitter. It has the orders and production numbers for Shanghai in it.

The current demand and backlog for the Y outstrips the 3 even with Shanghai building 50% more Y per quarter.

Just order my Tesla Model 3 LR today (30-01-2022).

Morning Midas is crossing the Equator right now.

Just saw posts from FB group, Morning Crystal ETA Brisbane 05/02 3:49am, then Port Kembla 07/02 8:00am. This timeline matches the earliest EDD of 08/02 - 22/02 shared by many ordered in Nov

Vessel finder AIS has it arriving in Brisbane on 9 February at 16:00. This is very optimistic at best.

Morning Midas vs Morning Crystal

I think its Morning Midas which would have ETA 05Feb Brisbane, don’t think a ship which departed yesterday could make it that fast

It's not a speed boat.. should be in Brisbane around the 12th

 

[T.Olsen]

When would be the next shipment over be don't think I'm in this one.
Havant been given a vin, None in source code

If you were in the 8-12 week wait when ordered, your car is likely on morning crystal and you’ll receive a vin early this week.

The others that have their vins already are likely on morning Midas

In the Q4 report, TSLA reports only 4 days in inventory. It seems a bit late if it is morning midas with the build date on 10 Jan.

 

[ruste]

Morning Crystal was delayed in Shanghai, so earlier estimates were based on no delay, but one occurred, so most of the original estimates will get revised this week, now she has docked, loaded and departed.

In the Q4 report, TSLA reports only 4 days in inventory.

But they manage that by not having ships on the water at the end of quarter.
All the Aus cars, produced in January, shipped Jan/Feb and delivered Feb/Mar.
Same for Europe, and even West Coast US.

The only inventory they want to hold is for local China and US deliveries - hence the low number.

Mid quarter financials would have a much higher inventory number.
