Is the sequence number just Australia, or perhaps all RHD cars?
is that fall Australia or fall Northern hemisphere? I am getting discouraged because we don't have an in country sales person or even the hint of a store. The UK and HK people have stores and have been phoned with spring, Northern hemisphere as an arrival time.Just got an unsolicited call from Naomi Takeuchi to thank me for my patience and that they believe that Australian deliveries will occur in Fall next year, that's Autumn in Australia or between April and June 2014. No other news other than reservation holders will be receiving pricing information via e-mail when its available, probably only a month or so before we have to finalize.
I asked the same thing when she called, she confirmed Fall\Autumn Australia which is March to May 2014 but then she said April to June, so that's late Fall\Autumn. :frown:is that fall Australia or fall Northern hemisphere?

Speaking of which, Naomi has organised a factory tour for me in November. If any of you will be in the Bay Area between now and delivery, I'd highly suggest you ask about it as reservation holders are welcome.
Thanks for the update, maybe the email I sent them 2 weeks ago about communicating with Australian reservation holders actually made a difference.

Amazing, - NO promotion here, no sales person, and yet people are still reserving!?! Out of interest, Matt, where did you hear about Tesla, and what made you reserve? When I reserved, i at least got a test drive in the roadster and there was obviously a sales person on staff.
Any of the reservation holder received a call from Tesla ? Was told that they are looking at delivering between March-June 2014. He said he was hoping to be down in AU end of the year to meet up with reservation holders.
Price : I read somewhere between 100 to 200k ? is that somewhat accurate since at current exchange prices range from 70 to $129 k AUD.
At current exchange rates, plus shipping costs, that would be about right (100k to 200k AUD). Not sure about Australian tax and other government fees though.
Reservations: Can upgrade from a 6k deposit to a signature one or the decision or am I locked in ? What will be the wait time if decide to wait for Autumn 2014? What is the wait time currently in the US?
You have some leeway to change your mind before 2014, you just need to contact Tesla. However, decisions made will begin to be locked in once RHD production starts.
Wait time in the US ranges from 2 weeks to 3 months depending on when you placed the order and your configuration. Most people get their cars within 2 months.
Financing : Do you know of any financing program to be run by Tesla in Australia?
Not at this time. The first batch of cars in the first few months of deliveries will probably not have any Tesla-backed financing anyway.
I will come back with more and meanwhile I will read this thread thoroughly !
Thank you in Advance.
Cheers,
Mr A
