As for the mcu not being retrofittable where was this determined? wk057 changed his car to appear yellow in the display, added P Parts and software and swapped batteries. When I hear him say it's not retrofittable I will believe it.
What are you doing that you need a faster MCU? My MCU can do 0-60 in 2.5 secI think no possible retrofit drives the value down more. I agree that facelift vs nosecone was a major change in looks. AP2 still isn't on par with AP1. And the Battery was just another option. Some may prefer a smaller battery, nosecone, and AP1. But no one prefers a slower MCU. This new MCU really does change the experience of the car. The freaking browser actually works now. Maps actually load without having to wait for minutes.
Everyone knows Tesla continually improves the cars. It’s been that way since the earliest Model S (such as mine that didn’t have parking sensors or auto folding mirrors-- but if I had waited a month I could have had those features). If you don’t like that concept, don’t buy it.A couple months from now, people will start to ask if the car has the new mcu when they are shopping for a used tesla s/x. They will also pay a premium to have the new mcu and if the difference between the old mcu and new is 5k, i would bet they pay the premium.
Let’s be real, everyones car that got delivered in the past 30 days without the new mcu got shafted. Just like the thousand others who got shafted before them months ago.
New major features added to the cars over time have yet to have a negative effect to the residual value of older cars. This upgrade will be no different.

This looks like an aftermarket business:
HSR Motors
Service Examples
- Upgrades for Tesla Vehicles
- Battery Upgrades (all variants)
- Performance Upgrades (OEM and HSR specific)
- Other hardware retrofits (sensors, autopilot v1, seats, etc)
Funny. See High CPO prices?
It’s alright. It’s soon to go up by 7,500
Wanna bet? There’s no way tesla drops the price by 7500 when the tax credit is phased out.Tesla sets prices according to what the market will bear. I expect Tesla to sacrifice margins by reducing the price rather than idle their factory selling fewer cars.

HSR is wk057’s company... so probablyInteresting - thanks. This part is really interesting:
Does that man they will retrofit AP1 on a classic like wk057 did? If so, I wonder what it costs?
