I already took delivery of my Model 3 Performance, which I upgraded to from an initial base AWD order largely because of track mode. Up until last night I was given zero indication that my purchase didn't include track mode. You can say that I could have guessed it didn't, or that I gambled, but its ridiculous that I would have to guess what's included in a $64k purchase.
I'm going to email Tesla today to see it it still possible to get track mode without PUP, or how to get downgraded to base AWD and get my $11k back. Upgrading to P3D+ is not an option for me because I already stretched my budget to get a car that I had a reasonable expectation I would be able to drive on a track.
Tesla has your money already, and you have the car. You paid for everything they said you would get - it's right there on your MVPA.
I still don't understand how people ignored the available facts regarding the standard brakes being insufficient for track use, yet are complaining about missing out on a feature that is for track use.
Also, we don't know if those of us who chose wisely (based on available facts), will have to pay for track mode or not. All the tweet said was that it will "only be available with the Performance Upgrade Package". Remember that the original $78k price was initially announced and the tweet read that "Cost of all options, wheels, paint, etc is included (apart from Autopilot)." There's still room for Tesla to charge an additional $5k for the track mode to get close to that $78k. Not that I want them to do that, but there's still a chance.
