Maybe it’s an omen, I posted my latest Powerwall 2 and solar stats earlier today. This afternoon, Model 3 configurations opened here in Australia and I’ve already ordered!

So, what did I go with? I was going back and forth over colors for many months, predominantly between Deep Blue Metallic and Midnight Silver. However, after seeing the Pearl White on a mates Model S this won me over.

I ordered:

• Model 3 Long Range All-Wheel Drive Performance
• Pearl White Paint
• Performance Upgrade
• 20’’ Performance Wheels
• Performance Brakes
• Carbon Fibre Spoiler
• Performance Pedals
• All Black Premium Interior
• Autopilot

I left off full self driving for the moment, mainly because Tesla recently advised the cost is the same before and after. If I add it now it bumps up the amount of taxes I need to pay on the car and most of the functionality in Australia under FSD hasn’t been approved yet.

I used my mates referral code in order to get 1500km of free supercharging, I definitely urge anyone buying to ensure you use anyones referral code to also receive the bonus.

I’ll continue to keep you in the loop once my order progresses but feel free to follow the Twitter hashtag #Model3AU to keep in touch with the rest Tesla Australian Twitter community.
