My estimated delivery date was between 24th August and 1st September. Text message received today, delivery scheduled for this Friday (17th)! Woohoo!

Congrats! I assume you mean the 27th.
I am still waiting for Invoicing, not sure how it can take a week to create an invoice, I check every few days but keep being told the delay is just the quantity of invoices being prepared. Still hoping for delivery next week...
Congrats! I got told a text Tuesday that transport would contact me re delivery... sitting by my phone and nothing yet. Hoping they throw mine on the same truck as yours!
Sorry to hear that Blurry and Gayle.
I wasnt expting it until next week but the sms just arrieived and organised delivery for Wednesday (1st). Which is going to be interesting because they still haven’t generated my invoice yet, so I have no way to pay. Had another talk to them and there is nothing they can do, the invoice will come when its ready.
I have to say that for a technology company their ordering process has been very underwhelming, multiple issues with the accounts web site, delays at every step, sms reminders for things that had already been done etc… Who knows what next week will bring.
Good luck to those picking cars up next week!
I hope I am actually one of them.

I hope I am actually one of them.Received the text message at 2:54PM today - earliest I could book was 10AM on the 31/08/2021 so that's when I'm going! 
Congrats Blurry! I got my "paid" invoice today and was able to use that to register the car remotely (ACT is in lockdown) which will take 5 days. All I know now is that I have to wait for the freighter to contact me and damn it... the phone's not ringing! So close and yet still so far! Another round of Teslacam perhaps?

A shipment of Model 3s arrived at Carways in Mitchell yesterday, so you may be getting a call this week.
Holy *sugar* cafz!! I opened up the forum and started to read your message and my phone went at the same time... it was Carways saying they would deliver the car to my house at lunch time today!!!
So great to hear @Gayle S please enjoy your new gogomobile!
Can I please ask a favour - can someone who has received their car very recently please take a photo of the front and rear number plates to show clearly how they are attached to the mounting bracket? (Feel free to DM these to me as you probably won't be able to obfuscate them)
I am planning to take delivery with standard plates then add my own custom ones, but need to work out if this will require drilling or not as I hope to do it in the VicRoads car park on the way home.
Cheers
Tesla are installing my Standard sized custom plates at pick up. They are also taking them off my trade in first. VicRoads cant print my plates in slim because the combination includes a mix of leters and numbers which is only avaliable on full size plates. I have no idea what this will look like, but its the free option to try first and if it looks bad I will have to consider changing plates. I was worried about mounting them too. I will be able to send you a pic after wednesday pickup (if they get me an invoice so I can pay before then).
Thanks @Bluey for the offer, however no need as I also have pick up on Wednesday
I actually would like to see how Tesla are mounting what they call their standard plates, which are actually black/white slimline. My plates are the same but I am concerned they may be drilling two holes right through the middle of them which I won't be able to easily do in a car park.
Sorry Bluey, I can't help as I'm not able to register the car as yet due to the ACT lockdown - it will sit in the garage until then and I swear it will not be driven around the very small block
