Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

[Ice-Bear]

Those times local or UTC?

Should be local times, it’s from the QLD government shipping movements website - Public Pages

 

[ShireSparkles]

How long between the ship arrival and their delivery times (just curious for when my ship arrives)?

Morning Clara docked Port Kembla 30/7, I got the delivery invitation 2/8 for 4/8 delivery which was the 1st available. So 5 days for Sydney south which is closest to Port Kembla.

Viking Passama is due at Port Kembla on Monday 8/8 at 12:00 midday.

When will due in Melbourne?

When will due in Melbourne?

Melbourne bound cars are usually offloaded at Port Kembla and then trucked down to the delivery centre. The ship itself is scheduled to dock in Melbourne on August 13

Awesome thank you

I was under the impression that my car, or the next lot of cars would be on Viking Passama. But looks like this ship would dock port Kembla around the 5th or 6th.
Going by the trend from here it should take maximum of a week or 10 days for the cars to be delivered. This doesnt actually meet my EDD timeline of Aug 26th to Sep 5. Would this mean we can expect a change in EDD brought forward?

I would guess yours is on Morning Crystal based on your EDD range. Morning Crystal is due in to Port Kembla 12th August.

With the Model 3 All-Weather Interior Liners seeming to be always out of stock, are there any great alternatives out there that people would recommend in the mean time? Also, for the QLD Brisbane people waiting, who do you guys have lined up for tinting/paint protection for your Model 3's?

Express Tinting at Virginia did ceramic and tint for $995 on mine

wow im in syd but great price - did it include only side window tints, and any idea on the product they use for ceramic?

Would be keen to know if anyone in syd can recommend a vendor that can do the same in sydney (that they've used/plan to use recently)

Are you happy with the result for both? Wasn't clear from your other reply: did you only tint the roof, or windows as well?

 

[old_geez]

Very happy. Side windows and rear window done… roof is already tinted quite dark

I just received these: TESLA MODEL 3 Car Floor Mats 3D XPE Textured look - Front and Rear Set 2017-2022

They look good, though I don't have a car to put them in yet. If you want to get them, you can use this link to get 10% off your first order (I get $5 somehow from this, too)

Sorry, but can I ask, why do you get $5?

That's a referral link they gave me when I paid for my order. Don't know how I receive it (maybe a credit I may never use) but wanted to provide full disclosure. I provided the link so others on this forum may be able to take advantage of the discount I didn't get.

My tint company warned me that tinting half rear glass could cause heat stress crack even though they did my 2019 M3. They claim glass has changed in 2021....?

Makes sense, so what did they suggest to do? Don't tint the rear? Tint the whole thing?

It could be the light of an oncoming ship full of model Ys.

Stoppit!!

I've been interested in these. Is the colour proper black? Because half of the photos online look black and the other half look a dull grey.

Guys. I had a question.

My EDD is showing as Aug 26 - Sep 3

When can I expect Tesla to reach out to schedule a delivery day?

Thanks!

 

[MagicalseT]

Just read from social media the upgrade of Model 3 line has complete.

Test run will probably last for a few days.

*** Speculation only ***

Any update on yesterday from the social media? You’re the only one keeping me sane with all these Model Y deliveries taking up all the chat!

Not until the start +/- a few days of your EDD Window
