WuWa still posts every weekend, and i've been skimming through them. Just nothing to report here. This weeks factory drone shot was a mostly empty car park with 80% black cars - so cars not for us.
There was another one of cars being loaded onto a ship, but since it's a ship I've never heard of and every one here is pro at tracking them, again not for us.
I think they are illegal in AUS so you probably don't want to go anywhere near them anyway
That's where anybody you buy from will be sourcing them from anyway. ( the same factories at least ) Some blatantly just copy paste photos, others are a little more subtle and post real photos
I can’t imagine they will be able to deliver by the 9th in Melbourne if it’s on that ship….but you never know.

Well, during delivery they tell you to take your time and find any issues, however if there are issues that come up after delivery, you have the option of contacting the delivery specialist or opening a ticket in the Tesla phone app and they will deal with your issue. If I'm not mistaken depending on the state (at least in QLD) if you are really unhappy with the car, you have a day or two to return it. Though probably then selling it as new on second-hand market would allow you to make a profit, so no reason to take it back...
My QLD purchase contract mentions 1 day cool-off period and this:
"If you terminate the contract during the cooling off period, you will have to pay us $100 or 2% of the purchase price, whichever is the lesser amount. You will also be required to return the Vehicle to us if you have taken delivery of it. If the transaction involves a Trade-In Vehicle and we have taken possession of it but have not sold it, we will return it to you. If, in the event the Trade-In Vehicle has been sold, the cash equivalent of the Trade-In Vehicle value determined at the commencement of the Agreement shall be refunded to you."

Home charging update! Got the Tesla Wall Connector installed today. Installed outside because we're about to turn the garage into a rumpus room and add a caport. Also added a 15a power point on the meter box as backup and individual meter on the charger (so I can hopefully claim back the electricity used when salary sacrificing). Very happy with the clean install and it was only $950 all up.

Yes, im not saying you accept delivery and then it's all over and you're on your own but in terms of order of events, you accept delivery first
Hi PsC000. Said I would get back to you. The car turned up today 
. The car doesn't come covered and was actually quite dirty. First thing after contacting Tesla and going for a spin we gave it a good wash. Very happy with the car. Even though we have watched hundreds of hours on YouTube we still need to work out some of the settings

Like a few others… I’m keeping out of here for September at least. No point in torturing myself reading of the unbridled joy that some lucky people are experiencing, and if I read any more “hang in there, it’s worth the wait” I’ll scream. I know they mean well, but when you’re led to believe it could be June and now looks increasingly like at least November or even later… it’s seriously bad. Good luck all in here, hope your car arrives soon.
You ordered when Tesla was clearly forecasting August to November...
Just relax, it will come when it comes, you get to start whining when its past the EDD window.
We are very different people. The "it's worth the wait" messages from people I've shared this journey with sustain me

Wrong, it was 5 - 7 month, that’s July- September, but was told “maybe even late June”. I’m not whining, as you politely suggest…

The latest video showed a small number of cars parked at the docks waiting to load onto a ship for (i think) Japan. This was said to be the last of the export cars for this quarter. From here on this quarter it's domestic production.
Was the same for me, too, even though I ordered in March. Hope to hear from you when things ramp up again likely in October.
I just had a vision of driving my Tesla like when I ride my motorbike: every Tesla you pass by you give a nod or a wave to acknowledge their ride, knowing their enjoyment. Think I'll hang on to that idea and hope to be nodding to some of you later this year.
