Australian Model Y Waiting Room

[jq371]

I wonder what your delivery times are like if some of our Sydney ones are delayed! Will be odd if yours can be delivered before MC haha.

Yeah totally. It’s weird my delivery dates keep coming forward by a day here and there, earliest being Feb 14, but that’s be weird if MC stock is being pushed back to later dates

I ordered a two weeks ago and received an email saying it's on the LAPIS ARROW.

From reading this thread, it's going to the stink bug car? Seems average getting a car that's old (i.e. not manufactured recently)?

Don’t think they’re all MYGCs, mine is on there, and it’s a 2024 manufactured car. I think it’s a mix

 

[MrPinkyMalinky]

What a bizarre thing! We all tracked it

There was even a guy posting pics of MC at Fisherman’s with a bunch of Model Ys so… c’mon stop gaslighting

When Tesla ask us to chose the date for pickup, can we chose the time as well? what time does Chatswood/Alexandria close?

I believe this means the vehicle has been unloaded at port of entry, cleared customs, and are entered into the RAV database.

Now we wait for that SMS to book our delivery date.

I’m hope I’m right but anyone here feel free to correct me.

Not the case unfortunately. MY MYP is still on the water, has never landed in Australia, is not expected to land for another 3-4 weeks, and yet is still on the RAV database.

Paganella is getting close!
Let's all put out our UMCs and pray for a painless arrival

Wonder when it gets in tomorrow if someone can go down and take some my nudes for us?

Some people have like a 9-12 and 3-7. I only had Saturday 9-12 but that’s Miranda.

It's in RAV because it's a Glovis Garavel car.

Finally got a link to book delivery today. Earliest date I could pick was Feb 20. What a bloody joke.

Great that people get cars so quickly but can't get over how poor it is organised by Tesla so that people who ordered more recently get to pick up their cars weeks before me.

This whole experience with getting a Tesla has been pretty poor.

Sent SMS to Tesla saying I'm not impressed and got a call 30min later telling me it was a tech glitch and I can pick up the car on Feb 7. Then 15min later another call saying that the tech glitch wasn't actually glitch so back again to Feb 20...

I’m finding it hard to believe it takes over 4 weeks to get cars from Port Kembla to Alexandria

EDIT: Received another identical email saying to book in delivery. Clicked through thinking maybe they fixed something but no, now the earliest I can book is 26 Feb 2:30 PM.

Tesla computer says NO

It would entirely depend on how many cars they have to move/deliver in total, and how many car carriers they have access to.

My estimated delivery date for Brisbane is 23rd January - 13th February for a Blue model Y and has been for the past week but it says it's on the lapis arrow. How is that possible when the lapis arrow isn't supposed to get to Brisbane till 20th February? Anyone else on lapis arrow for Brisbane with different dates?

 

[onmyway]

Oh wow how good! Wonder what’s reason the extra 20 day delay for me

I think they might give priority to orders that haven't been fully paid yet in case it is canceled at the last minute. I've got a slot booked for next Monday. I made the payment today.

For those in Melbourne who are waiting, here is the latest from the ship movements website of Ports Victoria. MC is now scheduled for 26 Jan which as we all know is Australia Day. I will be surprised if any cars are unloaded over the long weekend. My current window is 27 Jan to 17 Feb, my guess is maybe the later end of that.

Wharfies are still striking in Port Melbourne causing major delays for all kinds of shipping. Whether or not that affects the MC is anyone's guess.

Yeah, Lapis Arrow, Feb 29 to Mar 21

Any other evidence to support this?

My original car was on the Glovis and sent back to Shanghai. Was assigned a new VIN and advised it was on the Morning Crystal. My EDD has been blank for ages and is still not updated. Now I know from this thread, and tracking the Crystal that it docked in Brisbane and its draught dropped so it definitely unloaded. There was also a photo proving it was docked.

Sick of waiting for an EDD, I texted Tesla yesterday asking what was going on and got an interesting reply:

We did get to see the ship on the shores of Brisbane but it did not get to unload, it is now making its way to Melbourne. This could be because the Brisbane port was busy and it couldn't dock once arrived. The EDD will update itself after it leaves Melbourne port as we can't control the estimated times until then. Thanks for your patience.

So according to Tesla, the Morning Crystal didn't dock or unload in Brisbane but this thread proves that to be not true. Is this a case of, they forgot to unload my car while it was in port? Has anyone else got confirmation of delivery or pick up dates for vehicles that arrived in Brisbane on the Crystal?

This was bizarre to read considering I saw it with my own eyes and took that picture lol.

According to current Berth schedules at Webb dock, berthing is scheduled to occur on Early hours of Saturday. However it appears that no port operations will occur till Monday 29Jan.

Just my guess. There might be other reasons. When the GC was denied entry to Australia. I reached out to them about a refund for my order fee. At that point, I was close to canceling my order because I was pretty fed up with the situation as I sold my old car.
