Australian Model Y Waiting Room

[Tmill]

Took delivery of my 'other car' this morning. So, I have cancelled my Grey RWD order.

It's been not so nice waiting for nearly 6 months. But in the end, I changed my mind due to delivery timing uncertainties. A good deal on the other car and trade-in made it a bit easier to let go of the MY LR.

All the best to the people who are still waiting.

I actually tried to delay until next FY

You can delay, by missing the payment deadline.....

And lose your deposit when Tesla cancel your order by not taking delivery within 7 days.
It's in the order agreement.

Though I'd love to see someone challenge that clause, because it seems a very one-sided and unreasonable condition. Tesla can delay your order as long as they want, with zero useful communications. And then they give you 2-10 days notice that you have to pick up the car within a given week.

 

[Quickst]

And lose your deposit

Agree. They play the game the way they want it played.

Just called Tesla to see where my order is at - my EDD moved to Jul 1-22 now as well. Pick up at Alexandria, Sydney.

The rep told me the car hasn't reach the delivery centre yet and says in their system it will be the first 2 weeks in July, but likely to be the first week where I'll will receive the SMS... no chance to be delivered before EOFY though.

Very very disappointing to hear this...

And costly. Apart from the ATO carrot, My finance Co, said their interest rates would have gone up 1Jul if loan not settled by EOFY.

I doubt Tesla will cancel. The lawyers put it in. Standard clauses. They don't have to enforce it and they won't now as within weeks, supply will exceed demand and Tesla will want very buyer they can get.

Yes, it is frustrating. But that is the way it is unfortunately. The positives I think outweigh the negatives.

They dont have to, but they can

I think its the other way round. Demand exceed supply. and Tesla does not have to advertise for people to buy their vehicles. There is no evidence that their factories have excess production capacity. I don't think the ending of the EOFY ATO leg up will dampen demand. There are still very attractive ATO leg ups for FY2024

Supply and capacity will remain steady. The initial demand hump will subside. Alternative EVs are now on the market, or will soon come on the market. Plus a very bad recession is about to hit Australia. UK & Europe too. USA eventually, as also most other regions. By the end of the year, demand will have come off big time. The fact that the EDD is now much shorter for anyone buying today, tells you that the supply and demand are more in balance. Pricing has been quite steady despite inflation.

Is this a good sign?

A few of us have this too - my date range is 1 Jul - 22 Jul so hoping it means the SMS is imminent

Urgh, fingers crossed. It’s been a long wait, Dec 2 order. I’m sure some poor devil will reply with ‘I’ve been waiting since July 2022 etc’

Yeah, I just noticed my app is doing that too. I reckon SMS before the week is out.

 

[Quickst]

My app never showed that when I got delivery approaching or when schedule delivery appointment sms

Tesla has new tricks first time my app is doing this. It didn’t do this with the June 30 car that I couldn’t pick up.

Hi all…Still waiting for any contact from Tesla on my vin, delivery, etc..but I have a different screen and view option regarding pre-delivery tasks….would this meant that it is a little closer?
When I select the view button it’s just gives me a start option.. but you can’t select it.

November 6 for me....no change to my EDD - still says Jun 28 - Jul 19 (but obviously I've missed that start of that window....) and Telsa unofficially are saying that's optimistic at this point...

Assuming your car was on the MC like me then. Has your app changed at all?

Mine is like that too as of today.
