All cars come with the required hardware as all cars contribute to the neural network.
That's great.
it has literally nothing to do with what I said though.
He agrees with me that FSD is entirely software.
He still claims that adding it after the car is built (but not delivery) means I lose the VIN I have assigned and I go back into the queue for some other car at some unknown future date.
That sounds like, and rightfully so, Tesla is cracking down on people fornicating with their orders. It doesn't require additional hardware period. However if you subsequently want it then yes, the price goes up. And that is explained right on that order page.
Except, not.
Because what the page actually says is the price goes up after delivery
I'm asking them to add it before delivery.
And the delivery advisory is telling me he literally can't add it at all without me losing this car and going back into the queue.
His statement makes no sense. We both agree it makes no sense. But I have no way to make him add it if he refuses, which is what he's doing.
As for second / third hand information from what allegedly Tesla reps are telling people, I can't comment.
I'm reporting what I was personally told. No 'alleged' happening at all. I can forward you the actual tesla email if you're really that dubious.
My Actual Tesla Delivery Advisor said:I’m not able to add Full Self Driving before Delivery. I know that it’s software but with this change they reassign the vehicle. I don’t know how long this would delay us
