Not really an early buyer perk - but It can be considered getting more than one ordered. I’m waiting for an insurance company to team up with Tesla and lock in lower performance for lower rates.
but some people feel cheated and want some sort of compensation. If they had only gave the performance update to people who had purchased EAP or FSD before then it could be seen as such. Currently its just a normal firmware update.
Uh, I paid over $60K in 2013 for an MS40 with 140-mile max range, no AP, no folding mirrors, and not even any reverse CAM parking lines. And the classics are still getting updates which means they are still getting better. What car improves over time without having to buy a new one??? Please stop whining about the price drops and just deal with it and move on or just sell the car to someone who will enjoy the fact that they have the best car ever!
Your car is a 2018 model, with EAP, new cars do not come with EAP so I do not see how you can compare. Your option is to purchase FSD2018 when it is ready, for the price advertised back when you purchased or take Tesla in their new offer for FSD2019.
Clearly does not understand the Full Self Driving (FSD) was always a cost above Autopilot. Tesla dropping FSD in the fall of 2018 is contributing to the confusion for people not familiar with the earlier pricing. Anyway, if you look on the website it clearly explains the difference between them. To the original poster. You got what you paid for. Tesla was not cheating you and everyone else paid the same as you for Autopilot. It is not like they singled you out to be treated differently than everyone else.
@pat_kin my sincere suggestion is to sell your car. You are not ready for the Tesla "experience". (I can't bear to read all 4 pages of this thread!)
Life is too short to sweat the small stuff... consider yourself fortunate to be a small part of the global population to have a Tesla
If you post your VIN then skynet knows what car to take control of. The dark side of full self driving.
That is a different issue. You claimed that Tesla told you they would give you FSD for free. But they never told you that.
Oh, no! If only this thread had been started a couple years ago I could have saved myself so much enjoyment!
