There were still trucks regularly coming in in the hour and a bit I was at the Hendra delivery center yesterday picking up my car! Mine was the last one there when I arrived after catching the bus from Toowoomba and getting my transfer with Nathan from Ride4U.
The entire family is super happy with the car... my 5 year old daughter couldn't stop smiling!

This is what I have in the next steps section now.
Have been attempting to get hold of Macquarie Bank but they're all on holiday until the 9th. Tesla said that's fine as I can still pay my deposit once the invoice arrives then pay the rest before delivery.
Has your next steps updated yet or still showing the same?

Mine is the same model built on the same day just white. how was the drive up the range? I am originally a Tmba person too And I remember as a kid our car used to max out at about 50km/h up the range. Any build issues? I pick up mine Jan 17 ordered march 20.
Today's the day! 10am!
Very patchy sleep last night lol

Macquarie Bank still have a skeleton crew of staff on over the holidays, this is the email I was given if I needed to contact them over the holidays to finalise loan etc. Cheers [email protected]
I ordered in early June, the same config. The initial delivery timeframe was Feb-May and by looking at the trends here, I was expecting the car to show up in May. This month the date changed to TBD and on the 15th I received a "vehicle assigned" email and an invoice. Maybe things are moving faster than we thought?
It's possible that for us, here in Tassie, the date remains TBD until the delivery is arranged with a third-party carrier. It looks like everyone else on the mainland, who has their VIN and invoice, has at least an approximate delivery timeframe. For me it's still TBD.
My Next Steps not yet updated:
The paranoia is real lol. I haven't received any email/sms from them either - have you? I did call though and they assured all is fine with my account - also advised that invoices should be available in the next couple of days.
Got a call from Tesla Mt Gravatt last night asking if I'm ready to pick up the car today. Only problem is, I'm in regional Queensland and I it is meant to be delivered to my door. After an awkward conversation, i find out my car is meant to be delivered first week of January...after waiting 318 days...and counting, nothing surprises me anymore

Like a walk in the park for this car! And surprisingly only used 3% going up.. I thought it might use more than that.
My trip from Hendra back to Toowoomba was about 29% of battery with some pretty heavy acceleration at time. The thing just wants to go.. even up the range I just popped on cruise control to make sure I don't get some unwelcome holiday speeding fines!
Get to Toowoomba and the first set of lights is old mate in his Commodore thinking he even had a chance... Not sure he had even left the intersection by the time I was at 60 and then speeds past as if he was winning Bathurst...
No email or text message yet but I do have the payment details in my account. Definitely feeling like these are a few cancellations come through rather than a new batch. Fingers crossed for us that it's not a cheeky tease
Small edit, email and text now received.

300 odd pages since my last post saying I had 7.5hrs until taking delivery, on 22nd Sept.
Never got around to posting photos.
6 weeks after I got it, on 12th Nov, a girl ran a red light, and I have now NOT had it longer than I had it.
So I'm back in the waiting room again: waiting for it to be repaired.

Yes, that's how it has always worked for those getting the car delivered rather than picking up at a delivery centre.
Here he is, Adelaide delivery centre is excellent. Super friendly and responsive, I'm a very happy girl.
Another Feb order FINALLY fulfilled
