I already have a M3SR+ with parking sensors and i accepted delivery of a MYLR last night. I love everything about it, except for the lack of parking sensors. IMO, Tesla should never have sold cars without sensors - unless the camera based software was already available. We all know how long the promise for Full Self Driving has been lingering, will the camera sensors be similar?

My car has USS and if I relied it without paying attention to what is in front of me I would have hit a few things. That is why high end dealership employees where all the cars have USS are supposed to back cars into parking spots.
Not even sure it’s possible as it would need to be activated at certain speeds / in reverse etc and how would anyone tap into this signals in a proprietary system like Tesla’s?
I hope so but I think it would require removing the bumper and placing a new one with the holes.. expensive!
Think he was joking suggesting old school curb feelers
Thank you for clarifying!
I will receive my 2023 M3 RWD in a week so this information helps me sleep better!
I just checked my 2023 and it says up to date with version 2022.44.30.1 so I guess waiting on the new version 2022.40.4.1 with this new vision, you stated everyone gets. obviously that is not true and my software is up to date!!
He is giving you crap and some of it is false. The lack of warning backing up is a danger to you and others. I recently read about a tragedy where a father accidently ran over his own son playing behind vehicle.
Don't let a cyberbully tell you something you know is wrong. If he does it again , report him.
Cool story, Bro. So superdad looked in the wide angle, rear view camera that occupies that majority of the only screen in a Tesla, probably with the views down the side of the car visible too, and then reversed over his son, eh?
Even if this scenario did happen (which it didn't - at least not as implied) parking sensors are a convenience feature, not a safety feature. The human in the seat is responsible for driving the vehicle safely.
I am not your 'bro'.
I never said the vehicle was a Tesla or even if his car had a camera. So either you cannot comprehend or you lying to trying to be a 'tough' guy. There is no 3rd choice. The tragedy did happen but all you can think of doing is typing out a snarky remark. Very telling.
Fact:
" a 2010 report by the NHTSA stated that 210 people die every year in the United States from back-up incidents, and an additional 15,000 people are injured."
Ah, I see. So your comment was actually nothing to do with Telsas or ultrasonic sensors, you were just contributing random trivia. Kinda seems like it might cause confusion or stress for owners-in-waiting who are seeking to understand how significant the impact of missing USS is on the new car they're waiting for though?
Ohh are we just posting random car stuff on here now? Let me google some stuff, Be right back.
Please stop stalking me. When a man calls himself a "dude", it is creepy that he follows your postings
Haha, you’re posting in a public forum, nobody is following you. Your attempt to belittle is comical and just oozes insecurity and defensiveness. Very telling. I feel sad for you.
Too expensive?
$43,990 - $7,500 = $36,490
I was looking at a Camry priced at $36,095msrp (as built $37,290) two weeks ago and went with the M3 at the same price point.
There is absolutely no comparison between these two cars near the same price point. Plus Camry 27mpg with Zero Autopilot and compare resell values.
