Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

[simesinbris]

nothing in MY waiting room thread either. no M3 and MY on this ship (unless Vins will be assigned while on sea)? is this full of forklifts?

The wuwa video showed 3s and Ys being loaded, how many?

I would have paid $40,538 out of pocket at the end of the lease

How do you figure that? It looks to me like 52 fortnights at $723.90 p/fn = $37,642.80.

Yeah right, I used 56 instead. Thanks for pointing that out. I'll update the calculation.

I just got a text from Tesla saying my M3 has been assigned and delivery is Dec 11th-25th.... The original date was Feb-May which is what I wanted. I don't want the car yet. What are my options? If I cancel and re-order, do I lose my $350?


(I ordered on June 26th)

Here is a quote I got from my employer-nominated NL company. I'm a computer programmer, I can say I'm somewhat good with numbers, but yet I have no idea what most of the figures in this quote are. My layman's calculation is as follows:

1. I would have paid $40,538 out of pocket at the end of the lease
2. I would have to pay a residual of $37,623 at the end
3. Adding (1) and (2) will be $78,161
4. Subtracting (3) from the on-the-road cost of the car ($66,498) gives $11,663
5. Subtracting insurance, rego, servicing e.t.c (~$6,000) which I would have paid out of pocket without NL from (3) above gives $5,663

(5) is what I would pay in excess of the on-the-road cost of the car with NL. This does not factor in FBT tax removal. The question big question is then, what are the other finance options available where I can pay less than $5,663 in interest on a loan of $66,498 over a period of 2 years?

Experience people in the house, does this calculation make sense? If yes what options do you think are out there that beat the $5,663 figure?

PS: I CORRECTED THE $40,538(723.9 X 56) NUMBER, IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN $37,643(723.9 X 52).

Anyone know if any M3's were dropped in Brisbane recently? Or is the Dec 2022 - Jan 2023 a placeholder date and we're looking more towards next year?

My SA told me if I get this notice well before the delivery date, to contact them instantly and they will re-assign it and you get pushed back to your delivery window. If you get to them in time.

Good advice, I just spoke to them, I have 48 hours to ask to get unmatched which will bump me back down the list. Cheers

Just got my ‘delivery is approaching’ text. Does anyone happen to know how long between this text and delivery date messages are?

 

[resolve03]

Does anyone happen to know how long between this text and delivery date messages are?

Sometime in your current EDD window

There is no pre determined time frame between these messages as it's highly dependent on ship arrivals, customs, queue etc etc

I’ve received this test 4 times during this 2 months and still keep changing the EDD, so don’t care about it.

I’ve received just now

Ah thanks mate. I thought I saw in another post that getting that text meant that the car had already been unloaded. Been patient for 8 months, what’s another couple of weeks

This is what I got from my provider.
$733.08 x 104 = $76240 for the repayments.
Plus the residual of $26172.54...

That is not worth it to me...

Wow, that is an early delivery for a June order but can understand if is too early. Someone else will certainly benefit. RWD or LR/P?

Unless you're in your EDD window now the boat carrying your car is still in Brisbane ( assuming you have an EDD around the 20th November - 4th December and are in VIC )

I wouldn't be expecting delivery texts till about the 26th if that's you

Certainly no pattern to Tesla delivery scheduling.

I got 45,692 for total loan payments. Take the fortnightly cost and then expanding out to 2 years.

The leave out from the monthly number?

Works better to figure it out not taking into account pre and post tax because esstentially it will all be pre tax as there is no FBT.

Looks like the layout of the Tesla website has changed. I still have the Dec to Jan window but it now says "Prepare for delivery".
It also has a "Payment method" line item but when I click on it, it vanishes. The Tesla website is so bad.
