"/wave Morning Clara" as she slowly steams past Brisbane towards the land of Teslas and Forklifts
Morning Clara and Turandot have had much attention, but what about Morning Crystal, presently enroute to Brisbane via Fiji and NZ. anything on board for us??
I ordered my RWD on 15/1 - White/Black. Sydney. I reckon I missed out on a car in the last delivery by a whisker.
I now feel like the November 2021 people I was seeing when I started obsessively checking this forum back in February. And I can't believe there are still November 2021 people waiting!

Click on the three dots adjacent to the thumbnail on YT and select ""Don't recommend this channel" job done.
I joined this forum to learn more about Tesla's but now I just find myself impressing my friends with my shipping and port knowledge 
Maybe a week. The latest order I saw was on Jan 7. White/black is also pretty common, so the queue for that is probably long.I ordered my RWD on 15/1 - White/Black. Sydney. I reckon I missed out on a car in the last delivery by a whisker.

I agree because a mate ordered a RWD in December and got his in the last delivery.I ordered my RWD on 15/1 - White/Black. Sydney. I reckon I missed out on a car in the last delivery by a whisker.

While we are waiting, any recommendations on floor mats? And links to where I can get them in Australia?
In terms of what I'm after - I like the look of the 3D MAXpider All-Weather Floor Mats - but I'm not sure they even come in RHD
Any thoughts?
Oh I should include frunk/trunk/deep trunk mats in that too but I dont have a specific brand that stands out to me.

I have done some sleuthing... The pictures here:
Looks to be taken at the main port of Shanghai where Turandot was. The time aligns. The pic says 10th May at 7:31am (Turandot left on 10th May at 9am).
The cranes cannot be Luchao (look at google maps. No cranes). The cranes ARE at the port Turandot was docked at.
See image of main dock:
And looking from the dock (standing where the forklifts are) you would see lightposts on the left, cranes in front and continuing in a line all the way down the dock, the rear crane overhang aligning with the light posts (of which the shadows on google maps show the same design if you zoom right in - twin, square lights) and a series of smaller roads going off to the left all aligned along the dock the whole way down.
Tell me if i am wrong. But this photo sure as hell isn't Luchao, of that i am certain. And this is the one Elon commented on.

Very hard to tell. My only issue is the crane design. But as we know google maps images can be upwards of 5 years old and they may have upgraded cranes since. OR the pic is probably further along the dock amongst the cranes and the cranes vary. But the other points of reference are compelling.
Well, not to over speculate... but I zoomed in on those photos and they're too low-res to do much with. BUT, that photo of two lines of cars by the dock, front on - the cars have a white shape on the windshield. This looks to be a windshield sticker. Generally these are put on passenger side, not driver side. So this would probably indicate they are RHD.
I agree, was sleuthing myself last night and agree with you. It’s the Waigaoqiao Port more precisely.
Is that the top of the steering wheel I can see??
