I think your 100D is worth way more than 48K. Probably closer to 60K.
I also would consider something similar with my Oct 2016 S, but with a "downgrade" to a Y. Transfer my full self-driving AND my free supercharging for life with a $5-10K discount to what really is the car I should have bought but couldn't wait for. This would be really enticing and solve Tesla's problem of needing to bring my "ancient" hardware along for the FSD ride. Plus, Tesla would have a fantastic used car to sell (and likely make all that money back on).
You definitely have heated rear seats with a fully loaded 100D (called "sub-zero" cold weather package was a $1k option). I know I do (though after v9 you've gotta turn on HVAC and enter HVAC menu just to activate the rear seat heat options or wiper/mirror/window heat)
Subzero was optional in early 2017 so it's possible for some cars not to have the heated rear seats, heated steering wheel, heated wipers, etc.
For the S we took delivery of in March 2017, subzero, UHF and air suspension were optional and we paid extra for them. Subzero, UHF and air suspension were all standard on the S we got in December 2017.
I see what you are saying though...so either @bob_p 's car wasn't "fully loaded"...or he just didn't know he could turn on the rear seat heaters!
BTW, they can also be enabled via the app.

I'm pretty sure Krash is a grown up and does not need you to protect him from inconsiderate and self-serving me. I am willing to go out on a limb and believe he was capable of saying "no, cannot".
If you look around there was others that asked the same. I didn't see you jumping on them the way you did me. I noticed you seem to disagree with other things I say too. Did I step on your toys in the sandbox in a different life and you just want to haunt me? I don't know you. I don't look for stuff you write. What you say we call a truce and don't reply to each other?

Well, it has always been one of the possibilities. I think it's unlikely, but I think "no way" is overstating things.

Sounds great except for the part about losing FM radio! How can it not have a radio?

Anyone know the date this Infotainment blog was posted? Is it new or been there a-w-h-i-l-e ?
I'm also wondering if this means AP2.0 vehicles with FSD will be able to get dashcam support, which would be awesome (although losing AM/FM radio sucks). Also, does this mean those of us who pre-paid for FSD are now required to pay another $2500 to actually be able to use FSD *someday*, or will they make FSD work with MCU1?
I'm thinking they will create a version of FSD for mcu1. One that doesn't display all of the visualisations
It says dashcam after MCU2 upgrade with FSD computer. I think FSD is MCU2 only based on the wording which is a huge contractual liability for Tesla ("all cars come with the hardware for full self driving")
I was planning on MCU2 upgrade anyways because MCU1 sucks and $2500 gets me a new MCU that won't fail (and is better). I don't listen to the radio anyways but how hard is it to bury a wire?
How do we get 5ghz -- are they replacing the mirrors?
