Wailing wall for Australian Model 3 team VINLess!
- Thread starter WoodWombat
- Start date
So I got a call form Tesla today, apparently I have a VIN, although I couldn't find my hidden VIN. Ordered 11/9, SR+, no reservation. Supposed to arrive early Dec.
Delivery: Richmond, Victoria
Reservation: x/x/2016
Order: 16/6/2019
Vehicle: White SR+
I think Tesla has forgotten about me. People without reservations are getting VIN's. Here I am, without any calls or hidden VIN.

I wouldn't bother with emails to them. I've not once received a single email that actually offered some helpful facts pertaining to the vehicle I've been waiting for, despite the numerous I've sent. Most times I don't even get a response. Essentially, they inform me that I've just got to put up and shut up until it arrives. I did get offered to cancel my order, so I guess that's an option. I'm not at that stage yet though.

Sorry to hear that. Once again Tesla seems to allocate cars in some random way. I really should not get my car before yours, although I haven’t got mine yet, and it may yet be delayed. I put a reservation down in 2016, but cancelled about a year later. Did nothing until I ordered in September this year.
@Tygar you don't want to swap for a white/black P3D+ do you? ETA is Feb2020. I want the performance but not the 20" wheels, larger brakes, lowered suspension, spolier, etc.
Yep. They seems to give me a "late Novemeber". It just seems really odd that they claim that they don't have my car's configuration. Literally the SR+ in White which is probably the most popular? I just see people on Facebook and here getting their hidden VINs but theres nothing on my page (product finalized). At least they will retrofit the fog lights
Edit: Also going overseas late November. I hope I either get the car before then or have it ready when I get back. I don't want to wait another 3 months.
This is Tesla-speak for "We 'may' or 'may not' have cars that match that configuration, but if we do, they are assigned to other people".
Got my VIN over email. 4881xx. Part of me says its a dummy VIN used to keep people quiet.
"Reservation holders are no longer being given preference when assigning VINs. Rather, preference is given by order date."
"Our best estimate for delivery at this time is December."
If it is on ANL Warrnambool, it arrives in Sydney on November 8. I think I'll be overseas by the time it comes to Melbourne. Also don't have high hopes for Tesla holding till I come back (~6-7 days). If it is in fact December, I really hope it is early December!

I just got the same call. Tesla expect my car to arrive in Alexandria in early December, with delivery in mid-December. So around August 137th according to the Teslan calendar.

How can they say that a car manufactured mid-November will be delivered by mid-December?
It will be on a ship by the 3rd week of November, land in Sydney close to the new year and delivered 10 to 14 days later. Mid January is a better estimate for mid November production...
I am just looking at the @Vedaprime VIN sheet and seeing the 4617xx series first being delivered in Aug on the Brotonne Bridge. When did you order?
