Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

[Ausnoy]

so if it is now in RAV, then it could in either Don Juan (currently moored in Port Kembla) or Morning Cherry also in Port Kembla but I am guessing waiting for Don Juan to leave.

Picked up the car this morning. Very easy.
reversed into the garage, popped the boot, and the edge of it scraped up the brick wall. Excellent start.

Lets hope so, mine was added in RAV on the 14/04.

I would be on the floor crying I think.

BMW Le Mans Blue (from a previous car I had) is a close match to cover up where the little chips went through to the bare metal. Highlighted just how thin the Tesla paint is mind you.

I don’t see a payments section in my account is that normal considering I have sent a few small test amounts.

Mine's April 25 - May 16 -- which corresponds to two different possible ships coming into Sydney. Hasn't changed yet but I'd rather be told "hey its closer to May 16 than April 25" despite knowing thats probably the case.

Was yours in existing inventory when you ordered? Seems really quick!

Hey mate, I think the only place to see the payments is when your invoice is updated after they've received them.

If you're super keen, you can reply to the text they sent advising you the payment has been received and you'll get a response back fairly quickly letting you know what your balance is .

Just did this myself after sending some larger deposits across and not seeing any evidence of them on my account. I've been assured they've landed though and the invoice will be updated in due course.

I made a few small ones initially then reached out to them as I hadn't heard anything for a couple of weeks. Once I got confirmation I finalised the whole thing and received a text saying a payment had been received and I can view the payments, latest balance and any outstanding amounts in my account but yeah nothing there. Pretty confident I have fully paid though.

Edit: It is now showing payment complete as a task but nothing else.

That is quite incorrect. Tesla's track record is to upload all the VIN on the boat on their first arrival at an Australian port, it could be Melbourne/Brisbane etc. and take extra time to get to Sydney for example.

Also have an inflight order move from Apr 18-May 9 to May 7-May 28, so looks like we're on the same boat *literally*

It may now seem that ours is on Morning Cherry since my RAV was entered on 14th April which coincides with when Morning Cherry arrived in Brisbane.

Took delivery of my car today - it's amazing! All 311 days of waiting were worth it

Congrats! What a rough and long wait for you. I waited 9 months for a RS3 and that was pure pain.

is my understanding incorrect that if your vehicle is now in RAV, it means that it is already in Australian soil? I saw my VIN in RAV over the weekend but now my dates have moved to a later EDD overnight.

Mine (Melb delivery) was entered into the RAV shortly after the ship left Brisbane.

Big oof - sorry to hear.

I’m not a fan of the powered tailgate for a sedan with such a light boot lid and no kick sensor.

There's a hellofalotta-cars in inventory for NSW right now.
Just not mine

 

[innocuous]

Ordered a Model 3 RWD yesterday, was allocated today with an ETA may 1st to 22nd. That's pretty quick if accurate.

 

[Davemcd]

Picked up the Model 3 today.. Very nice drove home slowly
Came with UMC he said up to 27th Feb build as well.

Ok, I changed my config

Nope. I ordered on April 12 as well.

I have a VIN (which I could only see through the registration papers). No email, not sure where to send the rego papers to as well.
