Has there been any mention of suspension changes for the Performance Version? I'm hoping that the car has a very sporty coilover suspension - similar to the P85+. Thanks!
Well, it would appear they will have to change the suspension at least in the front, since the front motor won't fit otherwise. Beyond that, to back up Elon's claim that the P will outperform BMW M3 at the track, it would seem some suspension upgrade is possible/required.
Probably? Based on the following: 1- Those wheels seem to require “rear suspension adjustments to optimize ride quality, and is only available for installation after delivery.” This includes “rear upper fore links”. Model 3 20" Sport Wheel and Tire Package 2- Franz has been driving what appears to be an early version of this car, and it looks lowered: Elon says AWD and Perf orders start at end of next week!
I see the loophole now. He’s only saying that it will beat cars in its class on the track. He doesn’t say it’s in the same class as a BMW M3 just that it’s quicker But yes to beat cars like the BMW M3 on the track it will need suspension, monster brakes, and probably some sort of trick rear differential. I would be surprised if they over designed the LR cooling system so it will probably need that upgraded as well.
