    My opinion:

    Buy FSD TODAY!!!

    IMO, Tesla removed the option to get your $3k now, because they are VERY close to getting it out, as the new chip and other news incl. the drive by nav that almost ready, suggest!

    Very likely that you Will want it sometime next year, and the price incl. upgrading the chip, will be very likely much more than $5k.

    That is very optimistic. My opinion is Tesla knows they have oversold FSD and they know that it will be years before they can achieve what has been advertised. In order to "avoid confusion" they no longer offer the product for sale.

    It’s no longer listed for their other models (X and S).

    What about those who already purchased it?

    That's mean that it will not be FULLY out until then.

    The role out will be incremental and suppose to start much earlier.

    There's a large difference between lvl 2 and lvl 4-5 I think drive by nav will be one of the last major things we see until real FSD as a whole will come out.

    They really need to clarify what’s going on. I think Elon has come to the realization that FSD is not as easily achievable as he thought and he decided to dial the whole thing back. It’s really unclear what happens for those of use who already fronted the $$$. I think they have a liability on their hands with everyone who already purchased FSD.

    This is just a way for them to get everyone to stop complaining about losing the rear view mirror on the top of the display :)

    As one who bought FSD as a calculated risk, I'm also concerned. But Tesla has some history of disappointing customers in the past and their communications do leave much to be desired.

    Musk does seem to have confirmed this but not exactly why or what impact this has on buyers.

    I hear what you’re saying. I’m speculating, but if FSD is out for now perhaps they would just offer an option to refund everyone’s purchase or keep FSD with guaranteed software/hardware updates at a future date? As I stated earlier, I’m not overly concerned; however, am a bit annoyed that my purchased vehicle configuration changed without prior notification. How difficult would’ve it been to send a mass email to all who purchased FSD to let them know of these changes?

    I am quite happy with my Model 3 FSD purchase earlier this year. Looking forward to the release of the new FSD chip in 2019.

    It is a wild, unpredictable world we live in.
