Tesla have updated m3 on website

Thanks - just realised I'd included the white seats so was an extra £1k more. When I purchased there wasn't a premium for white interior.
£40,490 is the cash price for SR+ with white paint and black interior so grant included in that.
Understandable. But the centre console refresh being done literally weeks ahead of the door cards just don’t seem fair to me. I can’t be alone on this. I wonder if the new door cards would fit
I mean I certainly care about being told that I received the refresh. Which is partially correct considering I have the de chrome and new centre console. But it does throw into doubt the speculation around even some of us thinking we may have received the heated steering wheel etc etc. Nothing is certain now I guess. I’m more curious around the extended range that has been quoted
I’m guessing you are new to Tesla right? They have always had a policy of continual updates rather than discreet model years. In fact the M3 “refresh” was quite a rare occasion where multiple updates got released at the same time. Door cards obviously missed that cut. So did heated steering wheel by the looks of things. I’m sure something else will change in the next 12 months. It doesn’t matter to me.
AFAIK Tesla didn't sell earlier cars as a "refresh" version. They just updated and added various features in the way they normally do. We all started referring to this as a "refreshed" version. I think the new website info as of now is the only Tesla acknowledgement of changes to the spec so what you got before might be regarded as a bonus? People ordering from now on could justifiably complain if they didn't get all the advertised changes but maybe not those who got the changes early.
Only going by what I was told by Tesla etc upon my test drive. I only bought my car on the 31st December. No earlier than that. Was sold to me as a 2021 refresh I am new. And am getting the way that they must do it. Not the end of the world just annoying I haven’t even been able to drive my car more than ten miles as I’m currently covid positive and haven’t left my bed for a week

Fair enough. We find that the Service Centre staff themselves often barely know any more than we do about what's coming and what's included! The concept of the refresh seems to have coalesced from disparate components added bit by bit but finally now seems to be a clearer complete set of changes. (Small changes were made prior to this as well but they never got a name!) It seems like you've got much more important things to be worrying about at the moment! Good luck for a rapid recovery.
No, late 2019 when I ordered there was no premium for the white seats.

Tesla's cars are continuously "refreshed" as they see fit. My Feb 2020 car has dimming wing mirrors that slightly later cars do not have.
Mine didn't get the bag hooks in the frunk although the spaces were there. I fitted them myself.
Early SR+ cars had fog lights but mine hasn't.
In the same way, purchase options are enabled/disabled (especially on the SR+) depending on stock levels
I assume a lot of refreshes are phased in as cost saving and build improvements. The door cards will have been phased in to the 2021 model as stock was used up.

Learn something new every day! I wonder when they removed and re-applied the premium because I’m pretty sure it was on my original reservation way back in 2017 and was on my very recent late 2020 order
