Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

[1MCdTroy]

Aye cap'n, 'tis a perilous time.

Hailing from a coastal town with a light house' a special Latin phrase for myself is 'Olim Periculum Nunc Salus'. I know zero Latin, but since I was a child I have understood the English translation to be Once Perilous now safe.
I feel now Captain, that our determination to resist the perilous seas will be rewarded in survival, and survival will include transport in an electric car.

I’m claiming post 17,700

Let's just hope we're enjoying our cars before we get to the major milestone post of 20,000

Yeah mine was yesterday, I was chatting to an ex-colleague that already owns a 3 and I mentioned I'm still waiting and he couldn't believe it, he waited about a week when he ordered his, times have certainly changed.

When I ordered the SA said "you might get it in June I'd say, but if you say to yourself it'll be between July and September you'll be pleasantly surprised, you know what they say about under promise and over deliver"...that comment hasn't aged well.

Exactly the comments made to me, basically word for word.

After 8 weeks u will lose interest, after 12 weeks ull start talking to urself after 16 weeks u become numb and after that milestone u regret buying a tesla, and ur finger will steer to cancel order button on ur app. But soldier on my friend it will happen one day. HOPEFULLY

 

[Dany]

Thats how long ive been waiting

 

[KerrAvon]

237 days for me - I could laugh but my little daily driver has just blown the head gasket & is BER forcing me to drive the SUV that I plan to trade plus spending $150 a week on petrol is adding to the pain. Elon throw us a bone here!!

Hi All,
Just joined the group, and I wish I hadn't when I saw the wait times....
M3RWD 13th Oct Order with Estimated delivery: Feb 2023 - May 2023....sounds like it's going to be a hell of a wait
Certainly second-guessing my decision now.

Welcome to the group here. Dont worry about the long wait. As you recently arrived here, you missed all the posts last month from people who got their car and posted the celebratory "its really worth the wait" posts
P.S. Tesla is like a wizard. Its never late and arrives always precisely when it means to...

 

[Gareth Oakes]

Yup my 18th December order was 242 days to delivery "it won't happen overnight but it will happen"

Key take away "when IT means to"

By the time our cars arrive we'll be over 20,000

By the time our cars arrive we'll be over 20,000

But as every person posting here collects their own car, there will be new joiners waiting for their cars. And repeat customers waiting on their second or even third car. The beast will always need feeding

Something new to distract me. Watching what post numbers we are up to and trying to get post 20000!

Got a message about a change of delivery location here in the ACT. Got excited, but no change to the Aug-Nov EDD. Ordered Feb 15, RWD Red, black.
