Australian Model Y Waiting Room

[Winnieblue]

Yes the dates are all very odd currently.

However the VIN does not lie and they are definitely 2024 manufactured vehicles. I hypothesize that the build date is only a "close enough" sort of affair, or perhaps is the compliance date. Meaning the vehicle was built in late 2023 to 2024, completed in the first few days of 2024 and then had its compliance check on the 8th.

Perhaps? I dunno. I'm a just simple man trying to survive in this modern Tesla age.

 

[p.pommier@gmai]

Ordered on the 2/11, and still no VIN. You guys think I should contact Tesla to find out what's going on or it's a waste of time?

 

[baazighar]

So would I be right in saying everyone with a 2024 vin (3700×××) built 8 Jan, will have their car on Paganella?
My Sydney EDD again shifted to 16/2 to 8/3

same here.. New vin assigned on 5th, Build date 8th Jan. EDD changed from 28/2 - 20/3 to 16/2 - 8/3

 

[RichY3]

I just replied to the number that texted me after I ordered.

Did this but got nothing helpful - just a generic you will be notified as soon as you are allocated..

I still dont get how a vin can be assigned before the car is built? Most VIzn get assigned when the car exists and is on a boat?

Build date is the exact day it came off the production line.
Compliance date is when Tesla certifies that the car meets all applicable Aussie Design Rules. Possibly the day it gets unloaded.

 

[cnotoham]

So, it means that it’s possible to get the VIN prior to build date?? And also those of you that get the build date after 02-Jan-2024 will not be in the MC ship??

 

[robbie D]

MC has shown up on qships. Anchoring tomorrow morning. Then moving to fisherman 1 on the 16th and heading back out the 17th.

Fingers crossed no bio security issues please

Tesla confirmed over text message that our MY is on the vessel "Paganella"

Performance?

That ship has only just left the Netherlands

Rwd, black with black interiors.
It looks like its currently in Shanghai port?

 

[Jules22]

It's just about to dock in Shanghai

 

[Kevin Li]

So no checking of MC required like they did for Stinkship GC? I remember the GC was first docked at grain terminal when it first arrived.

Thanks. I did not genuinely know this.
So 100% we are on Paganella and not MC. Makes sense.

I believe all ships have to go through bio security checks. I crossed my fingers for MC free of stink bugs

 

[Tony Soprano]

GC went to the same place MC is heading for its very first visit (when it unloaded a handful of cars), it was only the last couple of visits that it went to the Grain Terminal.

IIRC the GC went to the grain terminal first, spent several days there, then Fisherman Island and started unloading, then back to the grain terminal again.

Maybe that ship was suspicious and needed extra investigation
