Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

[Mattflow]

So I was watching 'Electrified' and saw something cool that helped put my wait into perspective ..

Shanghai posted 83K(ish) deliveries for September..
Now look at the year past of deliveries.. especially April (1.5K) May (32K) and July (28K) - They were all low due to lockdowns, supplies, shipping- you name it, it happened.. .. but production and deliveries ARE slowly creeping up..

Yes the world isn't running at peak optimal performance but it will only get better. Stay Positive!

edited to include Production numbers too.

So will we see one VIN today?

It's the hope that kills

For all we know they've switched back to "VINs allocated at sea" like the old days.

I'm predicting no vins until around the 19th-22nd

And that was based on？

If M3 and MY were on the Passama VINs would have been released by now. Don Juan is direct to Australia and arrives in November. Turandot goes to New Zealand first then Australia. Schedules match up with usual production.

So all that talk about changing the production schedules to avoid end of quarter rushes to continuous production. Scrapped the old schedules and created the new and improved schedules that are identical to the old schedules

Next minute. All LR's and P's

Come on baby

Not far off the mark here I think. There is the possibility of other non Armacup carriers bringing them though, we saw this happen last quarter

I think that will happen hopefully

Then there would be a ship in between correct? Otherwise, what would Tesla use as the Gap filler?

But I get you. It makes sense.

Could potentially look at Shanghai departures with RORO carriers over the next week, does anyone know specifically which terminal Aus builds normally go from?

This is not the case as we now have decentralised logistics. It is all vin allocation at the factory.

I guess this is really what @Vedaprime 's expertise is.

Sure is. I'm just bored trying to fill in time haha

I mean you'd hope so. The time gap might make sense if it's a big shipment

For Victorian people FYI - I received an email today from Solar Victoria advising that they have extended my subsidy application (which Tesla apply for on my behalf) until April 2023.

I am in a Feb-May 23 delivery window (June order), apparently the scheme requires vehicles are delivered within 6 months of the contact of sale but due to global supply challenges the scheme is extended.

Hopefully I will get the vehicle before April and don't run into issues on that front ... Should hopefully arrive in Feb!

Well, for some reason I woke up at 3:30am. After checking email and news, I checked the Tesla app - things changed.

Logged in with browser, accepted Tesla Vision - I have a VIN in source code (LRW3F7FS9NC6XXXXX).

Happy days!!! Good luck y'all

(PS - not a troll account lol)

Does anyone know if this was a kiwi M3 VIN flurry, or a once off?

It is NZ order based on signature
