Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

[Joe__B]

My worry is that the longer they take, it makes more sense for them to delay indefinitely or cancel , as they might be losing money on the cheaper price

Yeah but they can't deliver any LRs at the higher price until they clear the backlog either. I hope!

What’s stopping them from cancelling all P and LR orders pre-March price rise

Feel like we are going around in circles with this.

This will be the first time Tesla have done this historically, and they've admitted on Q1 shareholder call that the price increase is a hedge against expected future material cost, not the current cost.

I hope so, it’s just strange that not a single P/LR has been assigned with people waiting from Dec

They have though. Late November and December up to the 4th. Only LRs. No Ps.

I’m starting to wonder if the day or two after the ship sails will be the day…just which ship?

clara shanghai 10/7 Brisbane 25/7 PK 30/7
think you’re looking at the older schedular somehow still. Which is good as it gives us a few more days in Shanghai for movement!

Hi @RodDavies, I'm in Perth but unfortunately didn't pay too much attention to the feel of the door panel when on test drives

But.... surely owners in other states could help you with this question, seeing as we all get the same cars ?? (no snark intended, BTW)

Did a test drive but can’t remember the door panels as I was too busy trying to get comfortable on the what must be the worst placement of headrests of any car. Will be getting some sort of headrest cushion or a season pass to my chiropractor when the M3 eventually arrives. Any suggestions welcome.

My wife has the same problem in her CX5.

Here is some info on adjusting the M3 one.

Agree with you, @Kat D ... I don't think the headrest firmness helps, either...

Omg, finger crossed at 12:30 pm tomorrow then.

I'm particularly invested in tomorrow being the day.. Would be an amazing birthday present

That would have been my scenario if there was no delay

They can't cancel, we have a contract and they want the revenue. As someone who works in markets, this also isn't how companies operate. They want to clear the backlog as soon as possible to show an increase in pricing and profitability over time. Tesla is also large on showing an increase in delivery numbers so there is no way they want to delay. Doesn't make sense for them to keep kicking the can down the road.

Edit - this is especially true for a prominent listed company like Tesla.
