Model X 60D is Gone

I wish people would stop saying that since, at this time, we have no concrete evidence that it is true. For the Model S we have some evidence that 100% is actually 100%, so you can't safely charge to 100% every day.
Hopefully @Ingineer will get a refresh 60 hooked up so he can let us know for sure how Tesla is limiting the packs.
This is first time I read 100% is 100% on the software limited 60. Can you share the thread? I have only read people charging to 100% without the taper.

I do not see any evidence or conclusion on the 60. It's ending inconclusive as far as I see up to the last post.
People have shown the voltage of their pack at 100%. And I quoted, and bolded, the important part from @Ingineer above. But again, we don't know for sure at this point, but so far it looks like 100%=100%.
For all we know Tesla flip-flops it. Today your battery might charge 0-80%, but they could flip it at your next charge to be 20%-100%, and then the day after that it could be 10%-90%. They could even be sampling different cars with different ranges to see how it impacts capacity loss over time. It doesn't have to be just one range for everyone that stays the same forever.

Same here in UK and EU 60D off the custom order pages so a global approach it appears. Wonder if a cheaper X is looming as it is now way too expensive for the floating purchaser. What can be done I don't know mind.
Just FYI I had one ordered in July and asked for November delivery. Earlier this week it disappeared from MyTesla, and when I called my local specialist they said apparently corporate cancelled my order. I got no notification or refund of my deposit and they made me place a new order... still working on getting my deposit back (they say I'll be refunded). We don't plan to upgrade to 75d either.
I ordered a solid white model x 60d, but did not pay it. does it still work?
Yes as long as your order is in, they should still honor it
I was going to get the 60D in March; I don't think the family CFO will green light the 75.

December all 100s is unlikely. No indication of that timing yet.
Likely mid-late 2017 I'd say once they are able to mass produce these along with M3 needs.

I was going to get one today... Had my day planned to go to the store and work with my sales guy to finalize it.

Just confirmed with the salesperson we ordered from that all existing 60D orders will be honored....too bad we didn't order a white one...would have been a true rare vehicle.

It seemed like they were trying to decrease the prices across the S and X in recent months to reach more buyers with introduction of the 60 but now they flipped and seem to be reversing course. I understand Q3 is done but they still need to move significant #s to meet Q4 projections, this really doesn't seem like a way to do it. Is this possibly a long term plan to increase S and X prices to differentiate them at least by price point from the 3?

Tesla discontinues the Model X 60D with software-limited 75 kWh battery pack
The Tesla Model X 60D has been a short-lived trim of Tesla’s all-electric SUV. After being introduced in July following the Model S 60, Tesla introduced the same software-limited concept for the Model X with a 75 kWh battery pack capped at 60 kWh. This week, the automaker removed the option from the design studio and in the process, it significantly increased the base price of the vehicle to $85,000.
Tesla pushed several updates to its design studio this week, including removing two colors and making the Smart Air Suspension standard on all versions of the Model X. But the removal of the 60D trim is by far the biggest update to be pushed to the studio since it significantly increases the price of the Model X by $11,000.
