Didn't upgrade from EAP to FSD during the $2000 "sale", but have bought $2000 worth of Tesla stock when it hit recent lows. So far I'm happy with the decision. If having FSD makes Teslas worth $100,000-200,000 as Elon Musk predicts and a FSD upgrade from EAP costs $10,000+ I expect I'll still be happy with the decision.

FSD going up 8/16

That seems...highly unlikely...after what happened the one time they ran such a sale.
Enhanced summon yes- stoplights no.
(I mean, it has whatever "your car might NOTICE you are running a red light, but not actually DO anything about it" feature that all AP2+ cars have now- but it's not getting the FSD "Will actually stop and go based on what stop lights are telling it" coming later this year.
The stoplight one above, plus same for stop signs, plus auto driving on local roads, all coming this year (allegedly) and only to FSD cars.
Well, we are getting close to when the October 2016 leases would be up. Should be interesting.
Tesla.com -> Tesla Account -> Manage.
The "Shop" section at the bottom will show exactly what's available for your car right now. For me, having already purchased AP, it only shows a $6k FSD option (which still stupidly says "Summon: your parked car will come find you anywhere in a parking lot. Really." then it goes to claim later this year "Recognize and respond to traffic lights and stop signs. Automatic driving on city streets". I'm sure the first part is wrong and pretty sure the second will be wrong (but I'm hoping not).
Yep! I'm guessing since Tesla's already delivered NOA and Automatic Lane Changes that no refunds will be granted. The ONLY case that someone could have is if the Enhanced Summon isn't delivered before a lease expires and then maybe they will be awarded a partial refund.
Makes me wonder if these aren't the "beta" folks that Tesla is rolling this feature out to so they can't say they never got it??! LOL!

0 of those features were part of FSD in 2016...(or 2017 or 2018 or even the first couple months of 2019)- they were all EAP features (enhanced summon included)
Well, August 15th is the Feast of the Assumption, so sober up in the morning and raise prices assuming people will pay more?
Yes, but I already have EAP. I was curious to know what the current price was for "bare" cars, and that got answered.

Yeah, I have EAP and sort of “regret” (sort of) not getting the FSD for $2,400 (whatever it cost in Canada) but on my account page it is now showing as $7,900 to get FSD. That is definitely NOT going to happen. (At least not until I can see what it is capable of.)
Enhanced summon (which may never even be available in Canada) is supposed to be part of EAP.

IMO, Tesla is going about the pricing the wrong way. They should stop reducing the price of the car because they really don't have to. The car itself is a huge success but not because of AP or FSD. It is just a much better car compared to the rest of the market. Fun to drive, Fuel savings, EV performance, futuristic cabin, etc. They should spend more time advertising and educating non-EV enthusiasts. Usually one test drive in the car is all it takes to realize this.
The FSD vaporware is what should be less money at this point. Personally, I would only pay about $1k for FSD at this point. If the system does not drive better than I can myself then it is not worth it to me. Also, who the heck knows how long it will take. We may be onto a Model 4 or something by then.

I bought a model 3 with EAP in 2018. I'd pay like 2 or $3000 I guess. How much is it to upgrade?

The way to increase demand for something that you are currently producing (and therefore must get rid of to make money) i.e. the cars is to decrease prices. So Tesla did that, or at least offset some of the effective price increase caused by the reduction in tax credit.
The way to increase demand for something that doesn't exist yet and that people are not buying (i.e. FSD) is to convince them that they will want it and that it will be more expensive later. It sounds like Tesla understands how to create demand for products. Take that short sellers!

Were there not 2 year leases that are up now?
I see no point in buying FSD given that one has EAP.
