I think that’s explained why the ship only wait there and delay the schedule rather than cost more $$ to offload the car ASAP.

Or even, on the day that they would have ordinarily left to make the original PK booking; travel to PK; offload PK vehicles (even if this means offloading some Brisbane vehicles to make room, then putting them back on), continue to Melbourne (do whatever needed doing there) then return to Brisbane after all that and do them last. Ship is out for the same amount of time (no extra staffing costs), they travel the exact same distance (no extra fuel), they've only changed one berth booking, they're back to Shanghai at the same time (no delays to future shippings).
You'd have to think it's getting close to the time that it would be cheaper for the carrier to take everything to PK and offload / truck back
Have a look on demurrage costs, if it's anything like I'm aware of, it costs thousands per day (for the carrier to pay the ship owner) to just sit waiting in harbour!
It would really depend on the specific agreement, but Port of Brisbane would probably also have some liability here
Fyi ship schedules are planned years in advance, so changing ship routes is a very difficult and expensive process

OMG
Just got a call from CEVA, my car is getting delivered tomorrow in Murwillumbah NSW!!!!

I am also wondering if the delay would affect the next batch of deliveries in Q2.
I doubt Port Brisbane would take up any liabilities given it was a natural disaster and not a human cause.
If anything, perhaps the shipping insurance would have to swallow the cost, might explain why they're (same with all other ships hanging around) happy to sit around waiting.

Congrats!!
Sorry for my poor knowledge, had to google where that is, hope you're not affected by the flood?
My place luckily escaped it cos we live in a elevated hilly area or Murwillumbah, but the main town is a disaster.

Don't mean to get you excited, but all signs point to your car being on morning Clara
Pretty sure that was my comment lol.
Just got off the phone with support about a website error, but also raised this again as I'd not heard back.
Different support agent confirmed that 14 speakers present but sadly only 8 enabled due to the missing amplifier and sub.
I asked about any plans for a retrofit kit, apparently not at this stage.
He cautiously suggested googling for solutions, but stated that comes with warranty risks.
I'm curious if you bought the genuine amplifier and sub as a spare part, if the harnesses are the same and the speakers would work.. Or if the pinouts are different..
Something to investigate out of warranty maybe..
There is a silver lining in those long, long wait times. Have a look at used Model 3 prices:
www.drive.com.au
Almost all used Tesla 3 cars are above RRP.
Our cars should hold value for a while, maybe for years the way things are heading.

I'll be heading overseas from the 19th for 10, days. Bet it'll arrive while I'm away lol
Soooo buy now, use it for 6-12 months, sell it above RRP for profit and help to fund either a Model Y, Model X or Model S?There is a silver lining in those long, long wait times. Have a look at used Model 3 prices:

That was my plan for the RWD, get the 3K incentive (NSW), try Tesla out and if happy, order Performance/LR/Model Y; trade/sell RWD with some profit margin when the new car arrives. At least I would still have the RWD while waiting for 6+ months. RWD should arrive this month, it just sitting on the boat off QLD.Soooo buy now, use it for 6-12 months, sell it above RRP for profit and help to fund either a Model Y, Model X or Model S?
A lot of those cars advertised have been there for a long while. They are holding value but some of those sellers are very optimistic!There is a silver lining in those long, long wait times. Have a look at used Model 3 prices:

Fingers and toes crossed, not that I'm impatient but it's cutting close to my trade in vehicle's rego expiry date, I don't really want to pay to extend rego.

Have you considered taking carsales.com.au buy it now option? Some people have reported that it's higher than Tesla's trade in amount.
