If what people are saying is, that (A) Tesla decides to offer the vehicle they described, and (b) Tesla does offer you that vehicle, and (c) you do decide to pay for it with FSD installed - then fine.
Doh. You beat me to the post.

That said, my reading of all these is that the FSD at $7k is a legal obligation of Tesla. No question in my mind. As long as they make the CT and you buy the CT that this agreement covers, you can buy FSD for $7k. Everything else is totally open to unilateral adjustment by Tesla.

Hoping for the 6 SEATS ...as that is a 'utility option' not often available in trucks or a Baja racer!

Agreed that Tesla has no legal obligation to sell CT at any specific price.

That said, I cannot fathom the logic in introducing a product at one price, and then selling it 50% or more higher than previously advertised.

Tesla’s long-term goal is not to maximize profits, but to maximize sales.

With the verbage on the site when they launched the reservation, Tesla failing to honor atleast FSD pricing for those that were lead to believe it was `secured` would lead to a very hard to defend class-action.

FSD was the only thing secured

I expect 10-15% increase.

Maybe in addition, with such a long waiting list, Tesla may add an extra 2-3 grand to that price.

Wait and see.

I think they’ll find a way to squeeze the dual motor under the $80k cap but not with options. $10k above that for whatever the plaid version is called
Maybe it's the optimist in me that thinks 'Dual' could squeeze below or at $59,999.99 :)

Tri motor gonna fit under 80k I'm calling it now. Up 10k from original estimate, allows room for inflation and rws. Tesla gets more money. We barely pay more, (after tax incentives fed and otherwise). Win win.

Your number and mine are within a true American Cent! Is that even a thing today in the US? Australia don't even have 2 cent coins any more!
