Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

[RL0109]

Probably been asked a million times, but where do you send the signed rego forms? I assume to any of the Tesla sales team?

So I walked into the showroom the other day and they said [email protected] and promply sent me an SMS with that on it if thats any help

I will have the same decision to make when mine arrives in a few months. As I already have M3 that I really enjoy, if the cost of upgrade goes too high, I will have to evaluate that at the time it arrives. At current stage I am still looking forward to the upgrade.

Those eagerly waiting won't mind at all

So how do I find out which ship I'm on other than trolling through every RORO carrier coming into Port Kembla?

If your VIN doesnt return a ship from here - RoRo then it's on one of these

Asia to Oceania | Armacup

armacup.com

Not hard to work backwards from your EDD to find which ship it's on

Guys there are new Model 3s available for immediate delivery in Victoria: New & Used Electric Cars | Tesla

How does this make sense with so many people waiting for deliveries from months ago?

Yeah that doesn't make sense, anyone care to chime in?

It would if he was from NSW

 

[Missimpatient]

I received the same email thus morning, I still have TBD as a date. Is the invoice a separate document? I don't have that but I do have a balance and payment details?

I think I'm going to contact Tesla tomorrow to get the instructions and find out where my invoice is. I assume it will be with the order agreement and rego authority.
I also got an email saying I could still get an offer for trade in, if I wanted. But when I tried, it would accept my current car's VIN.

Oh oh...

Now they really do have my spec in a long range...

And I was already convinced on Saturday with the bait one.

Ima be so poor now

Requesting a callback to see if I can save the 350 order fee and get the upgrade allocated to me


Not sure why they are in inventory rather than allocated. Surely the color/specs listed someone in the queue has them?

Don’t you know the costs already? What changes? Interest rates? You know already surely?!?!? I Don’t get it….

 

[voltz]

Yeah that doesn't make sense, anyone care to chime in?

I guess once you've got a VIN, it's your VIN and your vehicle... And these are cancelled orders with VIN's (that were) allocated to others.. That would be my best guess

 

[RL0109]

I'll start researching mats then. lol

Stokesy - from the Tesla Australian store, ALL Model 3s after ordered after June 2021 comes WITH Mats (let us know if you find anything different. I was down the shoroom yesterday and there was a LR ready to be preped for delivery and it had mats in it.

aaaaaaaaaaand they're gone

 

[raffdog]

Yeah they stuffed up I reckon. Got of the phone with an SA and can confirm it was a software stuff up.

 

[RL0109]

It would if he was from NSW

Then maybe it's QLDREGISTRATION, then again just ring the SA

Given China's annual sales are in the multiple 100s of thousands per annum, compared to our own barely making (I think, this year) 50,000 per annum, China probably has a higher impact on our delivery estimates than our own supply / demand.

This is all just guesswork and speculation, based mostly on better informed people like the various Tesla podcasts I regularly listen to.

From what I can see, the limiting factor for Australia is the logistics chain to ship, process, transport and deliver the cars. For example there's only a limited number of car transporter trucks in the country.

Hi, I’m new here. Does anyone order on may 23 in Melbourne have any updates yet? Mine still shows 9-12 months. It had been revert back 2 weeks ago from dec-jan 23 delivery dates!
RWD m3 white model.

 

[Priit]

Out of interest what's the change in cost from the time the order was placed, to now? Is it interest rates for financing arrangements?

The change is interest rates for financing and trade-in value of the previous car. Of which first appears to be going up fast and second dropping slowly.

It will come with the little carpet mats. Not all weather mats though, which I think the majority of Tesla owners will want.

My current M3 has the carpet mats and over the last 3 years they have been perfect, so I see no need to change. I assume this is personal preference for most, but I like the look and feel of carpet mats way more than any rubbery things and as I don't really play in the mud, they are perfect for me.

Not really seeing much action at the MIRRAT exit at Port Melbourne now, another truck with Toyotas on the back, one with a mix of Kias and VW Golf’s, and another with some Mercedes. No teslas in sight
