Australian Model 3 Waiting Room
- Thread starter rgc1990
- Start date
I know that this is likely true, but it doesn't stop the frustrations people feel.
Yesterday I was at the Adelaide delivery center for my partners first test drive. The warehouse was full of about 30 Model Y's - and every single one of those was ordered 3 and a half months after my order date.
I understand different queues and everything, but it was still frustrating to see.

That's not how it works.
It's more about information shared by an expert in the field (VedaPrime) and less about comments from people who think they know more than they do (pretty much every other forum)
Don't use it to spread misinformation about his service either.
Sure, if you know which ship your car is on. Sometimes that's easy, but with most of the ships Tesla use it's not so easy.
Plus his insider knowledge of what happens once the car arrives on-shore, to provide a much more realistic delivery date vs the one Tesla provide that shifts all over the place.
Some, but his service is primarily aimed at tracking the cars once they're already built.
ooo please, yes it is
One managing company has a schedule online
The second lets you search your VIN and literally tells you what ship it's on
Insider knowledge?
Cars go through customs, get booked for transport, get detailed at delivery centers. It's not all that complex.
As for EDD's, just add a week to the first date Tesla give you + another week as your starting point for a more realistic range expectation.

Not really, I have the same car ordered from 14/02 in Adelaide and crickets on my end…
Now the Perthites are about to abandon ship, I propose we form a crew and get this bucket of bolts (FFS Tesla) round the top end to Brisbane ASAP!!
Who is in? @Minties @Mal Cartwright
Short term crew (Darwin, Cairns) welcome cause the VINd had not been kind to any of us yet

I reckon since Perth ships are expensive, they decided to fill it more than the others. Also possible that Perth orders are fewer than in the eastern seaboard due to high stamp duties, few SCs and generally a lower population. So same number of cars= further along the delivery dates.
Crickets it's all we seem to get here! OD 18/2, I hope we get something in the next few days I don't want this to be pushed out to 2023.
I don't. I want to but the cost is a bit prohibitive at the moment. Have not long ago forked out for solar panels, the EV next. Batteries are on the plan just not yet. Need to give the bank account a rest
In Perth, yet to see Sydney progress out of Feb, or have I missed something?

Well that's what the sale's advisor who I could barely understand told me yesterday...
I am an optimist it is Saturday and sunny , I think VINs in the next day or two for us on the East Coast
Yeah I do. All set and ready to go...putting 50kw+ into the grid daily which is a bit of a waste for what I get on the return
Yeah, I could have been clearer. I wasn't referring to location (it's all Perth at present) but more the order date. Ideally this will mean when we get VINs for other locations we might clear up to mid-March. Here in Brisbane we've also had no VINs this season - and the tiny Gold Coast allocation early this month doesn't count.
Aye aye and ahoy!Now the Perthites are about to abandon ship, I propose we form a crew and get this bucket of bolts (FFS Tesla) round the top end to Brisbane ASAP!!

looking at time of the post, Captain woke up at 6:30am Perth time and still first rituals in the morning is to check TMC! I say Captain is not going to abandon the ship and will still make morning rounds to ensure the ship is on route and not aground.
