Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

[Sturty]

So Leo Spirt docked in Adelaide yesterday arvo and departed this morning. I thought I'd go down and see what I could see. Looks to be around 50 M3P's only, no other variants that I could spot. Mostly red and white, but a couple of greys. Didnt see any blue ones.

This is the level of dedication I appreciate.

Not a bad guess either - based on the VIN you shared with me, the total was 30.

Interesting, they must fit the aero covers when they get to the delivery centre. I don't want the large aero covers fitted. I might find out if they can be left off for my car.

Indeed, if they have aero covers they are left off until delivery. If you have a close look at the youtube videos of them being loaded they are all naked.
Well the ones ive seen anyway

Its so good to see Tesla being delivered straight to Adelaide for you guys. It certainly would save you from the delays we had with the Melbourne ports, then trucking them to Adelaide.
There is going to be some happy new owners smiling very soon!

What’s with the white handles and windows? That’s not how it looks online?

Still got the protective film on for shipping.

Don't worry, someone asks this question every time.

Port Kembla now shows Turandot arriving Tuesday 14:00. They must have hooked up all the M3Ps on board to do it in about 14hrs from leaving Brisbane!! The time before that was Thursday 0959 where it must have been dragging its anchor. Maybe there is some change of schedule going on?

lol this is my 2nd Tesla and still didn’t know this! Thanks

Maybe the Green Bay slot in Port Kembla has become free given that it has yet to get to Brisbane?

3 days out from pickup and no changes from Tesla yet so everything must still be on schedule.

Wonder how true that is, still showing 22nd - 30th delivery timeframe though and no choice to choose delivery date yet.

I spoke too soon. They just called me to delay until Saturday. Problem is that is going to cause problems for my finance so I have had to push back even further to next Tuesday. My current loan payout letter is only valid until the 21st because my payments come out on the 22nd and because I am trading in my current car and they are paying out the loan and applying the surplus to the cost of my car I have to wait until the payment comes out now and then get a new payout letter and send it to Tesla and get them to generate a new invoice that I then have to forward to my finance company so they can then make the payment. What an absolute pain in the butt!!

Oh Damn ! That’s frustrating. Hopefully all worth it and sorted soon

if Turandot leaves Brisbane tonight then maybe they will update Port Kembla's arrival time and could start sending out messages about "approaching" from tomorrow for initiating rego and payment processes.

I haven’t got any approaching messages ( I’m on the Goldy ). Should be soon?

Hmm maybe tomorrow then , as Turandot only started offloading at 1pm today. My EDD still showing 21-30

 

[Serza]

Turandot leaving port 21:00

All the QLD cars must be off the boat now I guess...

 

[viperau]

Looks like it's underway to Port Kembla for our Sydney peeps.

Final payment made, so 22nd June delivery shouldn't be delayed for me in Brisbane.
