Tesla Model 3 in Australia

Hi there - Perth here also, and with a probably near-sequential VIN - 4434** P+, similar dates. No phone call yet, but am hoping we're all on the same truck!
I am also in Perth with earliest reserve and order dates for P3D-, but have told my delivery specialist I won't be back from Europe until 10/9/19.
The Model Ss took an extra 2 to 3 weeks to get here over Sydney deliveries, so I was assuming I was safe, but maybe Tesla are allocating the cars to transports for Brisbane and Perth first this time, so early reservers in all locations will get their cars at a similar time.

Just did a quick analysis of the VIN spreadsheet...

* White is the most favoured colour (31 of 95)
* Deep Blue is the most favoured paid for colour (21 of 95)

* P3- is most favoured model (34 of 95)

* White SR+ is most common model/colour combination (13 of 95)

You were offered a delivery date? If so, what?
 
I'm adding a column to the form (Contacted by Delivery Specialist)
Ok so I added it in, and also added in delivery date that should only be filled out when there is a delivery date provided by your delivery specialist and should be the earliest delivery date.

Remember when you're completing the form, you need to save the link that is given to you at the end when submitted so you can get back in to edit the form later to update your info.

Also whilst providing your username is not required, it's highly recommended.

I'm trying to find a way I can provide exit links to people who have lost their link to get back in to their form.
I believe it's possible somehow. So if you don't have your link, please let me know what number line you are in the spreadsheet or if you provided your username I can use that, and message me if you want your link (private message is best so we don't spam the forum), and when I figure out how to do it I'll give you your link to use.

Thanks for keeping the data up to date and clean everyone!
These are exciting times!
 
Batteries mean exporting is unlikely to occur, so the export income has to be deducted as its lost
I do push about 20kwh to the grid every day. The batteries normally go from full to empty every day so the most i can save is the cost of buying the power back, minus what i could have sold it for.

I agree with the other post that the more batteries added, the less efficient it gets however i based calculations on fully charging and discharging every day (and also assumed 100% efficiency in storage and retrieval).

The batteries are really cool, and the app is fun to play with, but its not a financial decision, its a tech/emotional decision.

Solar on the other hand is a obvious win. It pays for itself easily under 4 years with even only about 50% used by yourself and selling the rest.
 
Now if only Tesla would let me use the car battery (90D) as a powerwall when my good FIT finally comes to an end. We can dream.
Nissan Leaf can do V2G. Elon was asked about this couple of years ago and apparently he said they have a different product for this called Powerwall so Tesla was not looking into adding this functionality to their cars. Though it would be awesome, it would most likely cannibalize Powerwall sales too much for Tesla to put much effort into doing this.

It would also:cause battery warranty issues for the car, and the small issue of free power for all at destination chargers, andlegacy free power for many at superchargers. I dont think tesla want to power my car and my house for free.
