Ha all good mate, i know how you feel!All good. It is a mix of excitement and anxiety - you know the feeling!
Btw i was joking about helping them out with the parcel shelf and the detailing. I don't think any company would accept that + I wouldn't want the liability transferred over to me

Meanwhile I ordered in September, and still have 12 days to go for pickup.
Yes, that’s what I’m telling - Tesla does not want us to drive old m3h model, we wait until 2025 for the new model!All of us on FA eh, had FA unloaded the day she arrived in Melbourne, we’d already be due for our first oil change by now
Not this. A bit ridiculous is that people in Brisbane are getting it before people in Melbourne.
I almost pitied the U.S. with the "release" of the Highland on the Tesla Australia website months in advance. That's all but transitioned to mild resignation seeing them receive delivery before us. Oh well, at least they have to suffer U.S. quality control.
My account is too new to include a signature or react to posts. Believe me, I'm here cheering all those who just scheduled their pick-up!

M3 LR 2023 MY23.5 (Highland) | Ultra Red | White Interior | 19" Nova
Ordered : 13 Sept 2023Delivered : 19 Feb 2024
Vote for Giga Melbourne 2027. Too close may be Giga Ballarat.
Did you order before January? I should have been more specific. I ordered mine on 10th Jan 2024.
It is simpler. Firmament dinghy came to Melbourne first and only then went to Brisbane - no one knows why, but I guess they just wanted to get unpredictably delayed due to whatever logistic reasons. And then Melbourne is so ... they couldn't sort it out for so long that FA reaches Brisbane, unloads cars there and cars get delivered to the customers, while Melbourne port is still somewhere back there trying to sort the things.
I don't know, but if I were a company which shipped vehicles, I would just avoid Melbourne as much as possible. And probably if I were any other company.

They do try to avoid Melbourne! Especially after that post Covid drama.
While being interviewed by news, some dude from DAFF dead as said; if the manufacturers and* these transport companies washed and cleaned their cars before sending them to Australia, we could avoid these delays.
lol because the world revolves around Australia

With the fast turn around from Tesla leaving the factory, being stored for very short periods of time on purpose built paved parking lots and loaded onto the ship im suprised they need washing at all, or have the opportunity to pick up biohazards.. Perhaps the other vehicles and machinery that get stored in less sterile areas such as dirt paddocks and fringe areas should be looked into.. but that doesnt fall into the "blame tesla" idealogy that is popular with the lemmings.
Pickup day for me today!
Only ordered in early December, but it feels like a long time coming... pretty excited
