Tesla is constantly changing pricing. They did (not sure if they still do) offer a cheaper/limited version of FSD. Just because they say one thing today doesn't mean that is how it will be tomorrow.They already offer highway driving for free, and on Thursday it goes to $10K. I can see them doubling the price of full FSD before it hits general release. They already offer a midway version in enhanced autopilot for half price and I imagine that will continue. And then there is the subscription service @elonmust mentioned but even he said that would be expensive comparatively. To me the only real answer is for our purchase of the FSD 'license' to go with us. That is the only way I can feel comfortable about buying another Tesla with FSD.
This simply is not true. Tesla knows very well when a vehicle is sold (tons of paperwork to transfer ownership in the app, etc) and DOES NOT remove upgrades that were purchased like AP, EAP, FSD, etc.Right now, if one purchases a Tesla and upgraded options - then, sells the Tesla - the "upgraded options" are removed when Tesla finds out the vehicle was sold!!!
I am pretty sure you are right and I am glad that it worked out for you (and has for several of my friends as well), but it should be the seller’s choice since they paid for the FSD in the first place. I want to transfer it from my M3 to an MY. I cannot do it at the time I purchase the MY because we would have both the M3 and MY until the CT comes out and then the M3 will be sold. I would have to have it in writing that I was getting the current full value of FSD at that time, to offset the cost to put it onto one of the other cars, and it would just be easier for Tesla to allow transfer from one vehicle to another than to go through all the other hassles and upset drivers.This simply is not true.

I am the 2nd owner of an M3 with EAP purchased by the original owner. I have many friends who have also bought used Tesla with features already purchased by the original owners. I know this to be fact.
To clarify, I meant that they don't remove EAP, FSD, etc from the vehicle like a previous poster said. I was correcting them saying it doesn't just vanish like they were stating.I am pretty sure you are right and I am glad that it worked out for you (and has for several of my friends as well), but it should be the seller’s choice since they paid for the FSD in the first place.

Yeah you're high if you think it'll be 10 bucks a month it'll be over 100 dollars a month to try it out. It wont' be less than 10k /60 months that's for sure.i added FSD when i ordered my CT last year at 7k kinda glad i did now. I can always opt out when i actually get my CT, but for now it's saving some cash.
what I am more interested in is will FSD become a subscription based feature (as elon as stated it will) before the CT is produced rather than 7k out of pocket. I am hoping I have the option when i take delivery.
for example If FSD is like $9.99 a month we are taking 58 years of FSD for 7k. Even if it's $19.99 a month that's still 29 years of FSD at subscription to break even. I am 50 years old, i wont be alive in 58 years lol (unless some medical breakthroughs happen) and I doubt the CT will last that long
heck if you figure the "average" age of a CT to be 20 years old (most cars on the road today the average age is between 9 and 16 years depending on the state) that's $29.16 per month subscription to break even on the 7k buy in.
But that 20 year figure is VERY generous, look at computer power today vs 20 years go the intel pentium iii was 1ghz monster, your smartphone is more powerful now......and these are VERY computer centric vehicles.
when you look at it at 10k, its even worse.
No where in my reservation confirmation or email does it list the price for the vehicle or FSD. Order agreement has lots of legal jargon. Does anyone have anything solid from Tesla in common language that confirms price will not change?If you ordered it at that time (when it cost $7,000), yes. You get the price of FSD the day you add it to your reservation, so if you added it right now it would be $8,000 and if you order it tomorrow it will be $10,000.
Yes, that seems to be missing. But since it's widely reported, they can't do the fraud thing.No where in my reservation confirmation or email does it list the price ...
