Those cars didn’t have MCU2 though.Mid 2016 to Jan 15th 2017.
My Sept. ‘18 has MCU2 and FUSC, but unlimited data connectivity was not grandfathered.Anyone know what the time window was for the unicorn models. They had free supercharging (by referral), grandfathered free unlimited data, MCU2
Your free supercharging is not transferrable, so not there for any potential buyer.March 2018 and above models, the S I purchased came with MCU2/unlimited supercharging and data access/AP 3.0 (Upgraded)/Bio Filter. However, the new refreshed model s looks tempting but would be a bit ridicules to have two variants of the same car. I doubt I will consider selling the 2018 due to all the perks which will lower the total cost of ownership over the life time the vehicle.
Did you have to pay much of a premium?October 2016 is when Tesla added the full "FSD" hardware to the cars. They got rid of TRANSFERABLE Free Unlimited Supercharging by order date on Jan 15th 2017. The Vehicle needed to be delivered by April 2017. The transferable cars will display "no recent supercharging" on the supercharging info on the charging screen in the lower right hand corner. If it has that you should verify with Tesla or a place that can get parts from Tesla (a body shop or repair shop) that the Supercharging code for the car is SC01 that is the absolute truth SC01 that is Tesla's code for Transferrable Free Unlimited Supercharging. As for the FSD hardware that can be found out on the screen in the car. I just bought a unicorn and I'm looking for more for my kids..... the gift of an amazing car that has the current features it has plus the possible future features and it cost nothing to fuel it if one wants or needs it! They are awesome!
I just bought a partial unicorn 6 months ago. December 2016 model x fully loaded but 75.. unlimited charging and fsd. I would consider a p100d version of my car a full unicorn (probably only a few exists) ...Did you have to pay much of a premium?
So how much has the FUSC saved you? Mine has already saved over $3,000.Plus since it spends most of its time parked while I am on travel and just went over 30K miles
Yes, those are the only late 2016/early 2017 cars with supercharging speed even close to mine. And what did they cost new? $130K? And the slower charging S90D's like my first car were still ~$100K.I would consider a p100d version of my car a full unicorn (probably only a few exists) ...
If you bought in the 90k range you did get an extremely good deal, I'm still seeing true 2016 model x unicorns (Oct to dec) go for almost what you paid for your S new. True Model S 2016 unicorns (June to dec) 60 to 70k used (p100d, fsd, fusc sc01 not sc04 or sc05, free internet)I'll humbly suggest I got a better deal than the late 2016/early 2017 people. My 2019 was ordered on the first day FUSC was offered for the Raven (Aug. 3).
I earlier had a S90D and the Raven has 60% faster supercharging speed and 30+% more range, and we know the 90's have had their supercharging speed reduced.

What do I not have that the late 2016/early 2017 cars do? The supercharging is not transferrable and I'm paying $10/month for the connectivity after the first year. But Model S prices were slashed due to soft demand while Model 3 was being introduced. My car was only $90K, and that included AP3 and FSD which was only $6K then. I only got 1/4 of the old federal tax credit but I got the California rebate before it was removed for expensive cars in Dec. 2019.
My car is not all that rare. I think all Raven Models S from Aug-Dec. 2019 had FUSC and the attractive pricing. The pricing got even more attractive in 2020 with the $69,420 base price, but those cars had no FUSC and FSD was $10K I think. Combine those factors with no more tax credits/rebates and I believe the late 2019's were the better deal.
The value of FUSC depends on how much of your driving is on road trips. In my case it's 40+% so FUSC is more valuable to me than to most Tesla owners. And I would not be doing as extensive road tripping with the lesser range/slower charging of the S90D.

Only drawback is newer models don't carry the charging but all that matters for now is you have it and making very good use of it.
