Argh, just got a call to say that my delivery appointment is moving from this Friday to Wednesday next week, as they were told that the car would take another couple of days to get to the delivery centre...

That a bummer mate. I have an appointment for Monday but no invoice as yet, so I reckon mine might slip too. Have called and spoke to Sales who said you cant talk to Delivery by phone, and need to email them.
 
Who was saying 500 per ship and one ship per week till at least end of quarter (Sept)?
That would make sense if 500 total for Oz and NZ.
I had this verified yesterday the 500 per ship is speculation - sticking his neck out estimate. So we have no verified information on the number beyond Cap.

The one ship per week aspect is very likely true. We just don't know the numbers on each, and we have weekly vins registered near production, so we can tell for the next month which vins roughly come from which ships, unless the initial vins are spread out across multiple weeks. The data will tells us this.

Mandy just advised her date was Build Date 19/7 (Viin Reg 13/7), so this was after Cap Carpricorn. It has to be Kota. It unloaded/load July 21/22 in Oakland. So Kota has had at least 1 on it.

Just got a call from Tesla. Delivery for Friday (sydney) has been cancelled.

Could be an interesting pattern if that continues. How many people were given August delivery dates in Australia? How many will still have them at the end of the day?
 
Got an email earlier today from Melbourne delivery advising that I could complete the licensing docs (except no attachment as suggested sigh) for DOTWA. Vin is 4434XX white P3D+ with black interior scheduled for delivery in Perth On September 16 at 10:00am. So things are moving for Perth deliveries. Anyone got an earlier delivery date for Perth?
No, 23rd for me. :)
 
Invoice secured

Delivery specialist called today.

My delivery date is 16/9. They will call me to confirm the delivery date in the next 2 weeks.

He told me the final payment credit card charge for American Express is 1.5% and I can pay with my card on delivery. I told him it used to pay in full 2 days before delivery and he reconfirmed that with others in Tesla.

I am waiting for the invoice. If the invoice stated the payment has to pay 2 days before delivery, I will ask him to confirm it again in an email.

Reservation date: 1/4/2006 (an hour before the Model 3 event)
Order date: 25/6
Pickup location: Richmond
Payment Method: Financed - Pepper Money
Configuration: P3- Midnight Sliver Metallic Black Interior No FSD
Hidden VIN: 4432XX

Yeah the delivery guys said that the volume of vehicles is high and the company that delivers the cars to the delivery location is running later than planned - so looks like AutoNexus are struggling a bit - or the delivery team were too optimistic in setting the original appointment, I was told that the car will likely get delivered to the delivery centre by truck on Tuesday, and then it will get a final clean/prep and I can hopefully get it on Wednesday.
 

Superb to see a Brisbane invoice. Makes it very real.

The invoice number of 481. Well, also interesting. I think we saw some very low numbers on this. Can't remember the lowest we have seen. But this is indicating hundreds of invoices have gone out. The sequence is either Australia specific.
 
I almost just got very excited - searching my account for "vin" resulted in the standard, "vin:null" statement, but when I searched for "5y" I suddenly got a hit (previously there were none).

However, it's a very long string of characters for "form build id" that happens to contain 5y...

The waiting continues...

I'm 115, so if sequential that's nearly 400 and i want the lowest.
