Glad to see people are being given VINs/EDDs.
For those going through Macquarie for finance my current pre-approval (from April 2022) expires on the 19th of October and they've just advised me of the following changes;
While I don't like my chances, hopefully an invoice before the 19th.
For those going through Macquarie for finance my current pre-approval (from April 2022) expires on the 19th of October and they've just advised me of the following changes;
- Fixed rate option - 2.99% to 6.19% (today)
- Variable option (new) - New variable rate option @ 5.94% (today)
- Establishment Fee - $0 to $990 establishment fee (not happy)
- Annual fee - $0 to $83
- Pre-approval period - 180days down to 90 days
- Edit: Forgot to add - There is a break early fee ("unknown") if you want to payout the loan early or need to end it early.
While I don't like my chances, hopefully an invoice before the 19th.

I agree. Looks like they have switched to being allocated at seaProgress is good, regardless of location
I will take next shipment for VIC
This shipment may be a bit tight, need to sell partners car for our 3 to go with the Y ( which also needs to go in for repair next week with 0 indication of how long it's going to take )
Not yet, but I'll be watching it until it changes!
Do these changes take effect only after your pre approval expires?
Sounding more and more like Morning Crystal has Teslas on it, which gives me some hope that maybe November could happen after all
Morning Crystal goes Brisbane, Port Kembla then onto Melbourne so if the VIN allocations continue to follow that then for us in Perth the vessel Tugela hits Melbourne on the 5th November so we would be the last to be allocated VIN's and then into Freo on the 15th

Good to see VIN's getting allocated...Been a long wait for some.
Personally I want our 3 on the next shipment to allow time for my partners current car to be fixed so we can sell it to help fund the purchase

Yeah, so my original pre-approval was from ODD back in April and expires on the 19th, so I have to reapply.
So if anyone was going to apply for a Tesla loan via Macquarie today, what I've quoted would be likely.
Ahh okay, but you know you cant choose? If you get assigned I didnt think you could delay to another time
Quick question guys - ordered my M3 RWD back in mid-March, Tesla app still shows 6-9 months for delivery, no VIN assigned (obviously).
My plan is to finance part of the total cost, but I haven't even started to approach a bank yet. Was told by the SA back in March that ideally it would be better to wait for a VIN assignment to kick-off a loan application, as it usually expires in a few weeks and the car could be pending delivery still.
What's the best way to move forward in this case, for those who've been through this step? Since I'm expecting a VIN at any time now, better to start thinking about it sooner than later I reckon.

Yep, very well aware. It's more to avoid any finance and get the other car organized for sale in time
Check out Plenti. No fees at all. My experience with Macquarie in the past is also terrible early payout fees.
Yes - I concur. Mine expired last week and my Macquarie guy quoted me the same figures. Quite a big change, I'll do some shopping around now. Macquarie were probably hoping like anything that the deliveries would be delayed so they didn't have to honour those old rates!!
