Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

[Jules22]

Im slightly miffed that i dont have a VIN and the BA is going to Melbourne with M3H on board

Can only assume it's a very small ship/shipment for some reason? Makes no sense otherwise that they wouldn't have loaded it up with all the usual stops. Maybe they are piggybacking another ship and only had room for a small number of cars.

Hopefully one of the tesla employees cancelled their order/got fired or something who had the same config as me.

Ohh wait, its nearly Xmas, is it wrong to wish that?

Maybe they got a better job, earning more money and are about to have their best xmas ever with their new job and family on an island somewhere..

Tesla Model 3 Highland RHD export fleet spotted in Shanghai’s South Port

A video from the Shanghai South Port terminal seems to explain why domestic sales of the Model 3 Highland have been maintaining their levels.

Bergamot Ace will be in Melbourne by Wednesday, I am guessing people might start getting confirmed dates end of the week?

Currently it is just off the Sunshine Coast! I mean if I drive to the beach today I might get to see it. I am super annoyed that it is going to sail right past us to Melbourne and not come back until the end of December!!! I don't get that at all.

My car is so close, and yet so far....

It could easily drop the Brisbane teslas off on the way south! Come on people hehe

How about game controllers, does anyone have any experience in using them in AU model 3?
Im thinking the PS or Xbox controllers would work?

People say that the PS5 ones are the go, they'll connect happily with the car over Bluetooth.

Cool thanks!

I just ordered one, will report back how it goes once i get it and a car to connect it too...
I've been looking for one for my gaming pc anyway, so it will get used and not put on the pile..

Haha i hope not.
Having TBA as my EDD is either a good thing (its in with the advance orders) or a bad thing (ive been forgotten) hahah

I'm sure you'll be in the first batches.

Ha, maybe First world problems

I wonder how the BA survived that storm that it probably sailed thru?

 

[Jules22]

Looks like TITUS is still hanging around just off Shanghai South Port, waiting for another load maybe?

@dronus did you manage to try your frunk and trunk mats in the highland? Anyone tried to fit the center console tray inserts?

My insurance quotes are horrendous, they range between $2,400 and $3,200, and I have max no claim bonus with spotless driving/claim records.
Does anyone in NSW have a more competitive quotation that they can share?
Please indicate rough figure and the insurer.

Thanks.

I have the frunk/trunk/rear mats here ready to test. Just waiting on the centre console trays to get delivered (should be any day now) and the new boot thingies and lids. Then I’ll go test them out (hopefully this week) and get back to y’all here

Also have windscreen sun shade and sunroof shades to test fit too, hmm should try them too as they were for 2023
