Well it's definitely assuring news to hear new VINs being assigned. I'll keep my fingers crossed I'm on the list for a reassignment soon.
Summarising my Tesla experience so far:
Ordered 23 Aug, estimated delivery window: Aug-Sep 2023
23 Aug to 12 Oct, no communications received. At the start of October the delivery window went blank in the app. ~10 October it updated to say Oct-Dec
12 Oct, VIN and final invoice received. Vehicle manufactured Sep 2023
1 Nov, receive an email saying there will be a delay due to a biosecurity issue. EDD updated to 16 Nov - 7 Dec
7 Dec, EDD updated to 11 Dec - 1 Jan
12 Dec, receive email saying further delays
25 Dec, EDD updated to 6-27 Feb
27 Dec, EDD updated to 6-23 Feb. Emailed saying further delays but we will aim to reassign you a different vehicle to get you something sooner. VIN in the app is now different (and not registered in Aus yet). No offer of 6mo EAP

Ship carrying Tesla electric cars to Australia turned back to China
Australian authorities have sent a ship carrying Teslas back to China for processing of what are believed to be biosecurity hazards.
Same....
Mine was PC187XXX
Built 25/9
New one is PC362XXX so I would imagine at least a November build.
The Daily Mail posted an article yesterday afternoon so they have probably picked it up from that.
The comments in this article are ok for now but the ones in the DM article are just awesome.
These artists should have nailed Tesla for disrespecting AU/NZ biosecurity measures and when these issues arise customers should be compensated for all the hardships encountered and the lengths customers go through adjusting their daily lives. And point towards Tesla for these debacles.
We all exaggerate a smidgen here... loving it! They should rename the thread to the "GC support group" and we can all hold hands and out compete each other with ever more exaggerated claims of demise at the hands of tesla/stinkbugs.
Life is pretty good if a delay on a new car amounts to a "hardship"...
Elon Musk recently said the charging network itself can be a multi billion dollar company. Now every EV producing companies are going to Tesla chargers and North America making it the gold standard for future charging. As old saying goes if you can't beat them join them and that's exactly what's happening. So have we made the wrong choices. With millions of successful deliveries made we're just a droplet in the ocean.
