Took two monthsto deliver , seemed like an eternity, but was well worth it. How can anyone go back to ice after tasting this?

Agreed. I have a trip coming up in which I have to rent and drive a Chevy Malibu for five days. Fucking kill me now.

Why rent ?
1
Friends and I are taking a train trip to Colorado from New Orleans. Unfortunately, this means I won't have my Tesla with me :(

You can’t. I fear the day I need to drive a rental for business

Ha! I recently had to rent an ICE after driving my M3P for almost two years. It took about an hour to reacquaint with those things called ‘brakes’…also, I was forever accidentally turning on the wipers out of habit of autopilot.

Had mine since March, and I've only driven my wife's RAV4 once since then. It honestly feels like a flinstones vehicle. I will NEVER purchase ICE again. And I'll probably only own Tesla vehicles for the next decade unless other manufacturers make something comparable.

Hell my egolf got me off ice vehicles forever and it's comparatively slow.

I had a P3D (M3P?) and then sold it to move to Europe. Now I drive an older. 2006 325i with 175K miles on it and I actually love it. It’s got a manual 6 speed and is super fun to drive.
Once I get back stateside I’m 100% buying another Model 3, but I think I’ll also keep an old banger around when I want to work through the gears. It’s a very different experience.
e: I will say, I rent a lot of cars and every car with a slushbox is essentially a compounding worse experience of my entire life. IDK how anyone can drive an auto to save my fucking life.

Yea, thing is, my previous car was a 2011 Ford escape. Not really comparable to a beamer. That's why my experience with my m3 is light years from I'm used to

Exactly. I'm the same, just took delivery after 9 weeks wait. The future.

Before I got my M3, I used to lust after my wife's MBZ from my Juke... now, though, I'm bitter whenever I have to take her car lol.

Also, first"road trip" the next day, and and I was impressed at how accurate the estimated battery left arriving at destination round trip. It was 1% short. Even with all my hard accelerations and ac running half the way

Chargers are everywhere now, even on a dirt road 😁😁

I used to be an electrician. That helped

Sadly I have to use crappy ICE vehicles for work all week. Meanwhile my wife dailys the performance, while her Camry sits on the drive.

Can I have an F in the chat for respect? I'm sorry to hear that.
