Must have been at the back of the boat: got an SMS today but pickup is the 29th in Brisbane. Late is better than never.

Have finalized the finance with Plenti yesterday (needed car insurance policy number) after scheduling pickup date. (3/19)
I noticed that they paid the rest of the balance off today. So now my account shows "Your final payment was received".
I'm trading in my car on the day, and then picking up the M3 RWD. So will be interesting how it goes.

I see a few people using plenti for car finance. May I ask why? I checked their website and it’s quite a bit more than macquarie who do the Tesla finance.

I'm in SA did test drive at Tonsley 21/2/22 ordered that evening.
M3RWD Blue/Black
Not sure when I'll see a VIN probably a long wait.

You never know. Some of the responses above suggest that it does not take that long.

On the Plenti website the rate is higher, but if you organise through Tesla you'll get the 2.99% rate same as Macquarie.

Folks,

Who are taking delivery of the standard TM3, what value are you getting the car insured for?

Just wondering the upper limit to consider with the price hikes.

Most insurance companies (I believe) offer new for old car replacement if written off within the first 2 years. So for me, I’m going with NRMA and market value. If you go agreed value you pay a higher premium and gain nothing at least for that 2 year period.
