Gorgeous, congrats man, she looks fantastic! Good tip on the charger loitering charges.T plus 6 days update:
Finally picked up the car in Brisbane on Tuesday. This was exactly 38 weeks after ordering it back in December.
Arrived 30 minutes early at 12h30 and was helped straight away. SA was there to show me around the car and help with the personalised settings. Battery was at 78%. The pressure on both left hand side tyres was low (38) but only found out after leaving. There was a single Y on the floor. Too big for my needs but will probably outsell the 3.
Standouts: acceleration, one pedal driving, road view and screen.
Personally I would like better screen indication that the brakes have been applied during regen (which could easily be an future OTA update).
As a (semi-retired) DJ I must mention the sound system. For an included install it is fantastic. Playing FLACs from the SSD is crystal clear. The subs can make the screen vibrate. The experience is only soured by the bad UX when selecting music. Retagging has helped a bit.
On Wednesday started adding some of the accessories I had acquired while waiting (See other post). Current favourite is the white centre cover that complements the seats. The right angled usb hub was DOA but in hindsight I donāt think IIāll ever need one as the dashcam and music storage is on the same drive.
Used the supercharger in Maroochydore and caught up with the legend that is @Ormaus . We compared cars and our experiences so far. Should have incurred āidlingā fees as I had overstayed my welcome but shortly after leaving I got a notification saying that as this was my first time this fee had been waived.
All public reactions have been positive. Friends are impressed too. Had a couple of random people start asking all about the car. Turns out Elon DOES have a marketing department. Itās YOU.
All the very best to all of you who are still awaiting

Verdict: So far, so awesome
Same same - mine to 9th. Got me thinking my car isn't on Paganella after all. Unless the dates keep moving ... of course they will!My EDD reduced further last night from 1sep to 14th to 3rd to 8th, Canberra
I'm looking at Wednesday in TassieAnyone order a Model 3 in Feb receive a delivery update yet?
I'm still waiting for any message from Tesla.
I agree with the too big on Model Y. Had a look at it myself. There are plenty of people who need bigger cars, but the main reason those will outsell Model 3 is because they are cheaper to manufacture, they are sold at higher profit margins, so the manufacturing is geared to making more of them. That makes waiting times way shorter for Model Y. So people hate to wait and end up purchasing more of those even if they have to pay more.There was a single Y on the floor. Too big for my needs but will probably outsell the 3.
It happened to me too, exactly the same. VIN appeared in API call when it was first allocated and remained so for a few days. Then it disappeared from the API call, everything else seemed the same, RN etc, but no VIN. Oh no <insert a different word here instead of "no", maybe starting with "f">, I thought!Interestingly, my VIN is still in the source code but now it is no longer showing up in the API call. Is it possible that I am getting a cancelled order and the VIN will change?
Well done Zigsterā¦ my only theoretical consolation is that as I ordered my M3 a short 5 days after your good selfā¦ that SHOULD mean I get mine on the 8th September- 5 days after you got yours. Thatās in a perfect world of course. Meanwhile, in the real world ā¦. In 2 months time I could be in Mulgrave.It happened to me too, exactly the same.

Then strangely it reappeared. Maybe it was the next day, I'm not really sure. But it did have me worried for a bit.
However, all was good. I picked up my new toy yesterday in Mulgrave. The Tesla team at Mulgrave were terrific and very helpful. They had absolutely no issue with us staying in the delivery centre as long as we liked to check over the vehicle. To be honest, 2/3 of the way thru the check list I just wanted to hit the road as I found no deal breakers and just wanted to drive this thing!
I'm not going to say "it was worth the wait" as others have previously said 'cos I know that's no consolation for those still waiting ... oh, WTF ... IT'S WORTH THE WAIT
Nice one! And congrats on picking up the new wheels, I've had thoughts about painstakingly going through the checklist as well and thinking about rushing it just to get in and go for a cruise haha.It happened to me too, exactly the same.

what state?Interesting. My EDD has slipped from 26th Aug-9th Sept to 11th to 25th Sept. I knew they wouldnāt manage it.
I just fell in love with the extra performance.. and I knew that if I got the RWD, every time I put my foot down, I would regret not getting the extra power!For me it was the range AND the AWD that pushed me to LR.
