It's a 2013, well before the debut of autopilot.
The lowest price autopilot sold as per EV CPO site is just under $60K, so a premium of $15K just for autopilot, and that for a low spec 60 with few options.
Most autopilot cars on CPO sold in $70K and above, so $25K premium.
Get the $45K car and enjoy it, any Tesla is a great car!
I know but this one had fewer miles and also had rear facing seats, Also I am not an aggressive driver who has a 70 mile commute a day. Even if we were to take the MS long distance the trips are limited to California and maybe vegas so I felt that the supercharger network is pretty good in this region.

Thanks!!
Just curious, what were the specs of the AP CPO that sold sub $60K? I am just picking up next week my bare-bones S85 CPO ( with leather and metallic blue) for $63K.

Congrats, looks like a great deal! Saw that alert come over and when I went to check it out an hour later it was gone. My alerts are set for rear facing seats as well.
Made the same decision as you, wanted a P85+ or D model but wasn't willing to pay the AP premium. Did a long term rental and determined AP just wasn't worth it to us now. Figure in a few years an X might be in our future.
Finally pulled the trigger on a CPO on January 8th. I had been waiting for a cheap 85 with RFS for a long time. My OA in Raleigh mentioned this 2012 85 on the phone (it was not yet listed on the CPO site). Took delivery on the 16th in Chicago and drove it 900 miles home. Hit seven superchargers and saw only three other Teslas charging (one in Indy, two in Charlotte). It's a loaded 2012 with an 'A' battery and 50k miles, but looks and drives like new.
I'm a big fan of Hank's ev-cpo.com site and subscriptions, the data is really valuable. That said, it seems that the best deals may not make it to the CPO site, so call your local Tesla store to get the scoop.

Thanks, and congrats on your new car!
I'm doing yet another 2000 miles Model S road trip in March and really looking forward to it.

Early on, we found many CPO cars that were different than the profiles from their CPO page. We suspected what happened was the original buyer ordered one configuration, then changed the configuration of the car before it was produced, and that Tesla was simply re-using the original configuration data. Some cars were listed with a different color or different options. I wonder if this is an artifact of that, where it was originally configured with one trim and then changed to another, and the CPO listing picked up both.

No, a 2013 CPO will not have AP hardware so it won't be given that in the refurb process. It'd have to be a late 2014 model to have a chance and 2015 would have the hardware for sure (though you may have to pay extra to activate it if the first owner didn't already).

possible but not guaranteed. If they start doing that ones prepped after the policy change would have it and ones prepped before the policy change might not. I'd check the car myself or at least call the service center sales rep to ask specifically what the status is on a car you are interested in.

Ok, I've now added the "no location" CPO cars that are displayed on the main TM CPO site, but do not appear in any particular location. These appear under the well named location: "No Location Listed". There are now 32 additional cars listed in this category, but nothing special immediately pops out as a good deal.

Thanks Cyclone. So, which dash do you surmise the car actually has, the first or second one listed in the options column?

The one I called about was listed with Obeche Wood Matte and Piano black. I was told it had the Obeche- my guess is ignore the Piano Black on all those and assume it has the "upgraded" option. Let us know if that ends up not being the case.

Hmm, that seems like it would be a smart thing for them to do on both ends when receiving an AP hardware equipped car.
It certainly doesn't cost them $3K to activate it (big profit margin me thinks since the hardware is already installed) and I believe it would also sell faster as you mentioned.
