I saw a white Model 3 next door who is waiting for PPF I guess(next door guys are car detailers). The registration is EVN-XXX, when I checked the rego it just got registered on 9th Jan. Looks like EVN is the current series, hope I get same series when I pick up the car on 25th.

I wonder if anyone will get EVN-00B...
Ho hum, Freedom Ace still sitting at anchor off the coast. Fremantle port movements pushed back to 12 Jan 8:10am. Got my updated invoice and Registration papers. EDD unchanged 11 Jan to 1 Feb.
My ICE has started to mock me, blew one of the daytime running light globes yesterday. What else can break between now and selling it?

I bought one of these on monday night, it was still showing as available on the website afterwards (and until tuesday night/wednesday morning sometime) so it was a bit of a wait overnight until I could confirm on tuesday morning that I actually had a vehicle and cancelled my earlier order from July. EDD was this week on monday night but on tuesday it changed to Feb 11 - March 4 and it turns out its on a boat.

The SA at the test drive in May 2022 said my car will be built in Jan 2023. Only few weeks early. SA's generally don't have much factual knowledge they say, but some experienced SA can have some clue.

missed the P by 11 days!What's the 10th character of your VIN?
If it's N it's a 2022 build, if P it's 2023
(Teslas built for Australia don't follow the "build year changes in October" pattern they do for other regions)
I just replied to the email they sent me and got an automated response stating my account would be updated soon (which it was). Address is [email protected]
now time to do financing. Estimated delivery: 28th January - 18th FebruaryGot a Vin! Standard Text on manage page. M3LR Black White 18 - Regional QLD!
Thanks! Worked. Got confirmation from Tesla email address above

Hope you get it quicker than our cars on Freedom Ace. They spent two months in Singapore!

Ok. Car arrived today. M3P. Regional QLD delivery.
Ordered late april
VIN late November, invoice week later
Paid December
Last week of December it was registered and shipped
Last Thursday it arrived at depot, week after it was shipped (not bad considering the long weekend for New Years)
Couldnt pick up earlier than this week and delivery to my door was tentatively booked for today anyway so I waited it out.
Took delivery in my driveway.
Drove it 5m into the garage.
Had 60% charge
Waited for call from Tesla - they pushed through the prompt to accept delivery, which then paired phone app to the car.
You can still drive the car without the app, using the keycard
Hooked up to the home wifi, downloaded the software update. Went for a drive
Yes, UMC portable charger was in the boot
Car needed a wash - to be expected, being delivered by car carrier.
There was some white dust here and there (looked like dried waxing creme that hadn't been cleaned off.. wiped this off easily)
Initial thoughts:
Carpet floor mats seem more than enough at this point
Glad i bought the grocery bag hook for the spare stud in the boot
Probably dont need the roof shade - its a very dark tint and cool in the sun
Definitely need windscreen shade and window tinting (including the rear glass where the roof glass tinting ends)
Definitely need storage boxes to make sense of the centre storage consoles
“Worth the wait”, it is.
