Interesting, and considering I saw a video of the guy in charge of Autonomy saying that LIDAR is now expected in the 2028 models, coming late 2027, I'm more motivated to go LE and be done with it. Imagine how good R2's successor will be in about 8-10 years? (I'm sure I'll still be driving then!)I haven't gotten the official invite yet, but the configuration now lets you select the Borealis and Forest Green rather than having them greyed out. So I'm guessing as long as you place your order when your time comes and just select the delayed options, they'll consider it an LE with a longer delivery estimate. If you were to wait until August or September to order, maybe the LE sale would be done... who knows?
Someone else postulated that they may sell the LE until Lidar is ready, then swap the LE package for the Lidar hardware. Ie you could either be an early adopter and get "free" Autonomy+ etc or get Lidar if you wait.
