Because Plaid is too expensive. Otherwise because a quick takeover of every BMW or Audi slowly taking over another car makes my day. Fortunately even so little makes me happy.Why a performance for "(local city driving)"?

I find that BMW and Audi drivers have just given up overtaking Teslas. It was fun a couple years back but now, no one plays with me anymore
"First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you, then you win." - Tesla has already made it. That funny slow battery crap with no range is now eating their lunch each day and they cry as they finally realize there is no other way forward than to also switch to EV. It took almost half of my life watching the Tesla evolution and now the dream finally came true. Sure there are better wins in life when one gets older but those are various topics only select people understand while the cars are something everyone knows. It is still fun even after 7 months.I think a lot of TMC posters are the ones giving Tesla drivers a bad rap out there.
I mean, on of the main selling points of a Tesla EV is the acceleration. With autopilot features though, I tend to actually behave myself more.Who thinks or cares about this stuff??? Are we 16 with our first license?

I care. I may be 58 on paper but I'm 16 at heart and love this stuff.Who thinks or cares about this stuff??? Are we 16 with our first license?

Saving $7,000-$8,000/year seems like a bit of an exaggeration, unless your current car gets like 10 mpg and has a terrible maintenance schedule. While Model 3 can offer some long term savings in gas, you'll spend more on insurance, tires and other possible repairs.
A M3P with $70k OTD cost is not an economy car and most people don't get it to save money.
It is a lot of fun. Especially if you are juvenile like meBecause its more fun?
How so? I drive 35,000-40,000 miles per year thats roughly 6-7k in fuel costs alone outside any maintenance. (5.00-5.40 per gallon premium).

Why does anyone buy a car with more than 75hp? Why did BMWM3Man presumably by an M3? I can only assume you're disagreeing with what you're considering to be street racing in a general sense? If so, I'm not wading into that discussion other than to say that if you can't safely do a little 0-50 fun against another car *in appropriate circumstances* then you probably shouldn't be driving at all.
I was curious as new Tesla model Y. They say we would 350 miles per charge. How long does that last driving with air conditioning? Roughly? Anyone have an answer?
A boosted LR does get quite a bit faster and the price isn't bad. The thing I like with the performance that I may take advantage of is selling my Uberturbines which are totally mint with 1K miles on them and buying some 20" EV01+ rims which will get me up to LR range and I think selling my Uberturbines will more than pay for the EV01+s. I also am not a fan of the 18" rim look on the M3P and would get 20" EV01+s but I am having a hard time finding ones that meet the spec I need for direct replacement so that's my main hold up right now.The LR AWD with acceleration boost ($2000) is nearly as quick as the P, but with better range and imho better rims (18"). We just hit 1 year of ownership and have 36K+ miles on it. Minor cosmetic issues covered under warranty. Stock Michelin tires lasted 30k, but would have lasted longer but the alignment from the factory was out of spec and the driver front tire unevenly wore on the inside tread ($296 Tesla Alignment after new tires installed). Windshield wiper fluid and charge at home with a Tesla Wall Charger. Save about $400-$500 a month in fuel costs moving from a Ford Expedition. Excellent daily driver and has all the quickness I could every want.
