They already sell cars faster than they can build them-- and with massively higher profit margins than BMW or Audi... so adding build complexity would only slow them down.
Yes, I unfortunately agree with that sentiment and realize this won't happen in the shape of an OEM Tesla product. As long as the car gets sold anyway it makes little sense in bare numbers - but I think it would make a big difference in terms of marketing and competitiveness.
Take for instance quattro Gmbh. They served Audi's motorsport clients for a long time before developing cars for road use; and a built the original B5 RS4 as an inhouse versions of a current Audi (the B5 A4). Designed on the A4 platform and with access to Audi talent and resources. quattro then recieved incomplete stock A4s from Audi and completed them with their own upgraded components in their own factory. This means a quattro built car met the same compliance and pretty much the same quality criteria as a regular Audi, but targeted a market segment that was too small for Audi. (I use this model as example because today the RS cars are produced alongside regular ones, albeit at a much higher profit.)
Tesla aren't going to build this car because it's total overkill for any reasonable road use and just not compatible with a 500km+ range. But we know there are plenty Tesla owners out there (and in here) modding their cars and who are probably wiling to compromise on cruising range just as an M3 owner gladly accepts that car's fuel economy.
I'd propose a "Tesla Performance" brand offering a "Model 3 Performance Nur Spec" - best name ever - or "EVO", or "ZL1" or "RS" through the official sales channels. If Tesla sold such a model as an OEM - even if only a limited number and an expensive option - the halo of a Model 3 Performance that can beat an M3 around the most demanding race track on the planet would permanently bury the argument that an EV can't be true enthusiast's car.
The "Nur Spec" should be a motorsport oriented car with the necessary tweaks to run the Nurburgring at level of performance to outrun a well driven BMW M3; which will do something like a 7:52 full lap so call it 7:45. It's safe to assume that a car that goes fast at the Ring goes fast pretty much everywhere, so a Nur Spec would make waves in the track day and time attack crowds as well.
It even seems pretty straight forward. The upgraded car Unplugged ran a 7:44 BTG in back in 2019 set that time in damp conditions while struggling with serious battery cooling and brake issues.
There is nothing magic to solving these issues, Tesla has all the data they need and would easily specify the necessary parts. Garnish with off the shelf parts like Recaro CS airbag front seats, full Unplugged suspension and BBK and some Sport Cups. And no offense intended; but even the 2019 time could have been improved significally with a Ring specialist behind the wheel.
For Tesla this only has upsides - a halo model, a number of happy owners, and a clear goal for enthusiasts and aftermarket suppliers to aspire to and improve upon.
For enthusiasts, a best case would be Tesla igniting an EV weapons race similar to the homologation wars of the 1980, 90 and 00s. In this period manufacturers had to produce a number of cars with a certain spec in order to homologate parts for motorsports. All of a sudden some lucky people were able to buy road legal racecars while every other car enthusiast on the planet aspiring to buy or build one. This is the exact reason legends like M3s, Cosworths, STIs were made, creating the practical performance car and changing the market for ever. Only now we want the practical electric performance car, and we want them to rule.
