Brilliant - good to hear
I’m collecting mine at 4:30pm on Monday, seriously thinking of taking Tuesday off work to enjoy the car for a day.
And to install all the accessories I’ve already purchased.
Might be the plugin, Right click, view page source (or ctl-u) then search (ctl-f) for 5yj3
LOL. JUST as I refresh the page I get the notification from the plug in that I've been assigned a VIN. Account page has updated with next steps as well.

All LEAFs have this (forward pedestrian alert sounds, and reversing sound), it’s no big deal. The pedestrian alert sound is a high pitched whine and is barely audible inside the cabin with the windows up. The reversing sound is like the “beep beep” that trucks make (but nicer). I think it would be better for Tesla to adopt that type of sound, because people already know what it means, they are used to it. The sound on that website could be anything, people will have no idea what it means.
Got the call from Tesla. No name mixup this time (caller opened with "This is XXX from Tesla Brisbane"). Said that my car was "on the boat" and would be "docking soon". Didn't ask, but I assume that means its on the Warrnambool. Mentioned that the date might slip if the boat is late.
Also didn't really confirm any of my details, just booked me in for a delivery date and said I'd get another call in about a week from the delivery team about invoicing and so on. Poor guy seemed like he was in a bit of a rush.
Anyhow, confirmed via phone:
Brisbane delivery, 30 September
P3-, Silver, 4882XX VIN
No reservation (though if it makes the reservists feel better, I've had two Tesla PW2's since Aug 2018)
No FSD
Order placed 4 June
Received the 'expect a call soon' text 3 business days/5 calendar days before the actual call
Edit: and the delivery date/time/loc now displays on the Tesla order page.

Picking up my model S in Brisbane at 10:30 on 30th. If anyone else is around, happy to have a coffee!
I'd like to take you up on the offer but I fear September won't be my month.
I picked up my White P3- from Alexandria this morning. There were about 7 other 3's ready for delivery today. The handover was brisk but unhurried. I seemed to know as much if not more than the delivery specialist, but that wasn't an issue.
Thanks, Kilak. From a Tesla rep? From a listed Tesla number?
It'd be a whole lot more reassuring for me to get it in an email with a Tesla signature block, wouldn't it.
I'm afraid that's one of my deal breakers with the Model 3.
