Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

[BendrRodriguez]

My car is on the Euphony Ace that arrived in PK Yesterday (still at dock now). My VIN is not showing on the RAV. Govt website - maybe works govt hours....

I read somewhere in this thread that the govt website updates at 12:30pm and 6:30pm. I’m assuming it’s weekday only. Hope your VIN shows up there tomorrow.

looking less and less likely, but there's a silver lining for some, maybe then the new FBT for novated lease will be finalised and may benefit some people here.

if passed, the changes are retroactive back to 1-Jul-2022

mine is on the Euphony as well, I'm assuming it will get complianced when unloaded in Melbourne

Thanks to all for your answers

So here's a thought ... The VIN allocations recently are LR and P (as we know) and not many (hardly any) RWD. What motor is used in the RWD compared to the LR & P models? Is there a supply issue at the plant with motors for the RWD? Or am I overthinking this a bit?

There are 6 possibly 7 Tesla shipments coming over this quarter, some of them containing LR orders from 2021. I think you're overthinking it.

Logged in specifically to agree with you Zigman but also to tell you that, NO, you're not going to get Ormaus' kitty - I've already got dibs on her/him. ()

Maybe we can take it in turns. You first in Sydney and then me down here in Melbourne. We might even join kitty up with QFFF and fly him/her around the country. Sort of a Grand Kitty Kat Australian Tour (we could even do merch like t-shirts).

I think you're overthinking it.

Yep, you're probably correct. Reading too much in the tea leaves.

Hi guys what was the website that gives you the shipping information based on your vin?

 

[Ormaus]

Are there instances where delivery SMSs are sent with a available pickup timeslots within less than 7 days?

In other words, if I haven't received the SMS and booked a time yet, is there any chance I could pick up the car this week? Need to make a decision on whether to travel for work this week, or next. Argh. Seems like plenty of other LRs being delivered in Canberra this week.

EDD 13/8 - 27/8. Pre-SMS received 10/8. Canberra

I got an SMS on Thursday and the available slots to pick were Tuesday (3 times) and Wednesday (3 times). So all within 7 days after SMS about delivery please use (link) to schedule.

P.S. Unless Ormaus decides to give kitty to @Roat.

I'd find myself homeless if I lent out a kitty.

You can sleep in your nice knew Tesla. I think the people have spoken: pony up the kitty.

Kitty #2 doesnt approve

He's out of the cone of shame now.

For FSD it has to be perfect. My SA lent me a RWD for an overnight test drive and for 20mins it was perfect, until it ran through a stop sign and 30mins later tried to do a right turn when there was a no right turn sign. So no it's not ready by any stretch, for city streets much less total autonomy.

You’re correct. At this stage FSD is better in the US. For Australia at this point in time, it should only be used on the highways not city streets but down the track it will improve and especially when they have BETA in Australia.

Did u originally have 6-9 months EDD?

Yes, until yesterday it still showed 6-9 months. Then someone must’ve cancelled their order and my order matched Woo hoo

Im sure they would probably "RAV" a car but until they receive full invoiced payment may not register the car (with Number plates) and assign DD... is that correct?

I think they've been assigning delivery dates before receiving full invoiced payment.

But you would have your Tesla.....

Yeah OK i get that but how far down the processing do they go till they find a customer cant get finance and will reassign a car
