Hope we start to see a rush of RWD VIN's for Perth soon to make this early September shipment...

This is the kinda thing I do not understand, and is really pissing me off (no offence to @amudholkar)... my order was nearly two months prior, I got my VIN nearly two weeks ago, we're both in Melbourne, but my EDD had just been pushed back to longer than yours. Was 8th to 18th, now 19th to 2nd. It doesn't make any sense; to match those EDD they'll have to be on the same ship, or they're preparing me to be bumped again. If not, why do I get to wait longer still!
I'm still looking forward to getting my car, and I'll love it when I have it, but when it comes to my next car, I don't see Tesla getting a look in.
Out of interest - do you know of any other car manufacturer (for EV models in particular) that does this better?
If you got a VIN at least you have a car on the way. There is a lot of anxiety with people that don't even have a VIN yet and whether they will make this quarter.

If it's any consolation, the UK orders' EDDs were jumping all over the place after VIN assignment, before they all settled on 3-4 day window in June. As in June, then September, then June, then November, then June again etc etc
Yep. LR vins. WA assignments give me a little more hope but it's not over until it's over. As we have all learned over the past year with Tesla! Not assuming my vin is coming until it's here.
I feel like everyone disregarding Polestar is akin to everyone laughing off Qanon lunatics being a threat until they were in the Capitol building about to slaughter politicians.
Have you seen their new ads? Schmick as hell. Way bigger mainstream appeal.

Wait, Polestar's ads or Qanon's ads?
If slaughtering politicians is getting more mainstream appeal then we're about to live in interesting times.
Ha ha. I have a colleague at work who ordered a Polestar and nothing but issues with the order and delivery process. She switched from a Tesla order to Polestar because she was told a car in the spec she wanted was available now. Long story short, they stufferd her around massively and it took 3 months and she ended up getting several thousand dollars back in compensation.
I reckon Polestars look better. Subjective argument though. But yep, Tesla has better performance for the price. But i also think Tesla has cheaper build quality, particularly the interior.
Performance in terms of their cars i mean. The company? Ehhhhhh. Not the best experience

You should tell her that shouldn't have pulled out because Elon never does (except of course when it comes to buying twitter and look how that's going to turn out for him).

That futuristic boxy 80s design aesthetic just hits me in all the right places. Same with the Ioniq 5. They clearly went for the 80s child nostalgia jugular.
