First buyers I believe got autopilot for free in some versions (I know for sure the X owners did) as well as unlimited charging. Still even those who paid for it, $15K isn't a fortune for everyone, particularly those throwing $80-100K on a car.

AP is not FSD, and aside from some early years it has been a standard no-extra-charge option on every Tesla produced.

And 15K may not be a fortune for some people, but wealthy people don't get that way by being frivolous with their money and a 15-35% bump in the cost of a car is definitely going to be noticed.

Dude. "it's okay to get ripped off, it's only 20% of the price of the car, no biggie". Elon must be a smoother ride than a Tesla.
