I would pay $2,000 for FSD even though it's not likely to work properly for sometime yet and is not legal here in Australia, the current cruise standard on Mod3l 3 works well, it does however cause serious skipping of heartbeat when driving at 110kph and it sees a shadow on road as an obstacle and almost slams everyone into the windscreen, also cars cutting across at distance it does the same thing, it's a real pain making me turn it off a lot and take control.
I would never pay the recently announced 10k for FSD for the following reasons: 1 I simply don't do the freeway mileage to warrant it, 2 I actually enjoy being IN CONTROL at least of my car, 3 nobody can tell me how long it will be before FSD is legal in Australia or anywhere for that matter. 4 Tesla is receiving all this data from us all, the whole fleet not just those wanting FSD and not rewarding us for this participation so why is he pushing the price higher with every announcement, very disappointed in that.
5 BETA I suspect FSD will not function as we expect or desire for a fair time yet? maybe years so being asked to stump up !0k at this moment maybe more later who knows is to say the least a greedy way of helping fund the other projects, it's like a free loan for years no repayments and no interest paid, I know we paid couple of hundred to reserve our cars and they had those deposits a couple of years but that's not thousands of dollars tied up in a promise, that's my feeling on FSD.
But while on subject of Australia, Tesla seriously need to get charging network built, it seems it has stalled so long trips require careful planning.
I'm hopeful simple numbers will mean that in say five years there will be so many Tesla's on road without FSD that rewarding drivers enthusiasts supporters of Tesla will be a commonsense decision and offer FSD as a freeby lol say $2000 which might easily earn them several millions for zero additional outlay since these owners were NEVER going to pay stupid numbers for a small piece of functionality.
