Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

[Stokesy]

I guess they also tell you "Your Tesla is a rare build so will take a bit longer to wait Bla bla bla".

Australian Model 3's are a rare build lol

If he is right viking passama is our chance

If they close on 16th onwards you're last chance is the morning Crystal and even that's pushing it. ~ 10 day turn around from ship docking to cars in driveways is a big big big ask

 

[Priit]

Agreed that Australian model 3-s are a rare build, Also I suspect each state or even each service center may differ on when they shut down and when they stay open during holidays, so both could be in their respective service center right if it stays open or not. And 3000 cars is basically 3 days production for them, so should be easy to do as long as they got shipping space booked.

I dont know if this is helpful but just got off the phone with my sa and he said theres a massive vin allocation coming around 3000 cars on the 20 and 21 of november, and tesla will be closed from the 16 of december till after new years thats why our edd has changed to dec 22 jan 23.

Has anyone rented Tesla or spoken to Tesla about a refresher drive prior to delivery. It has been such a long time since the test drive, I'll definitely be wanting a refresher, keen to know what others have done prior to delivery dates etc.

Yes did a refresher test drive last Friday

Go @Missimpatient ... Whoot whoot

Oh. Just got to the end of the thread. Sorry

 

[Mal Cartwright]

Maybe a bit of self reflection here. They offer you an SA so your voice is heard. They have updated the ETA because they cant get you the car in time.

It seems like your expectations are unreasonable imo.

Thanks for your opinion however my opinion is that Tesla has no concept of true customer service and their SAs, while polite, offer no effort to provide feedback. And given their lax attitude to EDDs and their history with production for Australia, I have little confidence this new EDD will be met.

 

[Mal Cartwright]

I agree. Tesla has now given a much better EDD range and people are still complaining. If you have had enough of waiting carsales has plenty of M3 for sale.

If you're happy to swallow this new EDD more power to you. I'll express my opinion here, in this Waiting Room thread, just as you do. I don't judge your comments, nor suggest you go elsewhere with your dissatisfaction, so perhaps keep your similar suggestions to yourself.

That sounds plausible. I don't believe there's not a big batch of cars either built or in production as the last push before cutover to primarily domestic. The numbers thus far seem too out of whack.

 

[AdeInMelbs]

Just book another test drive

Do they do them for longer than 30mins though?

Will add to the chorus of EDD updating from 6-9 months to a new EDD of Dec 2022 - Jan 2023.
Original order date was on April 8th here in Melbourne.
