I guess the statement is true, but hardly encompasses reality. To wit, the earliest Signature delivery was June 22, 2012. I received my S85 nearly one year and 10000 cars later, on May 4, 2013. But unbelievably, it has the same pack-limited A-type battery, even with thousands of B-type batteries delivered before. I have the dubious distinction of having the youngest such specimen reported thus far. I think for me and others in the same situation, it would be great if Telsa gave a consistent explanation, but it can't be consistent if the explanation is only tied to the earliest cars. If I were buying the car now and with current knowledge, I'd still buy the car, but I would be down on the floor by the front right wheel with a flashlight checking the battery sticker on delivery before accepting the car. In fact I would say this is now the most important thing to check on any new delivery, as it is the most expensive part of the car and currently won't be exchanged except for failure. The Delivery Checklist just got very simple: check the battery part number. Everything else can be fixed.
