What Kind of Car Did The Model 3 Replace?

2011 Mazda 3 Sport, six speed manual

Guess I’m the odd one then... most people appear to be stepping up to M3 price wise anyway ... not too many coming from a sportscar .

If it makes you feel any better I had a G35m6 coupe before the Leaf. It was a gas hog and $$ to maintain after the warranty ran out.

Nothing... bought it to keep miles off of my truck and save on gas for all the daily running around.

2016 328i xdrive

It was the best car I ever had. Only day #4 with my Model 3 but I'm thinking it might surpass the BMW..

I HATED paying at the pump almost 50 percent more for 50% less mileage on my VW Golf TSI, after I mistakenly traded it in for my Golf TDI, during the WV Dieselgate Scandal......To say I was pissed off having made that decision is an understatement.

Come to think of it , for like 90% of people , can’t see how the m3d LR can’t feel better that 95% cars out there ... cause compared to my M4 , this cars steering feel is tighter and more surgical ....feels faster , tech is way better

Only thing m4 does better is hard cornering with less body roll and less bounciness ... m3 has more understeer due to its weight and skinny front tires

M4 also brakes better than M3 ... but M4 is more of race/street car than our m3

I went from a Subaru Impreza 2.5i 5-doors 2008 to a Model 3 a week ago.

... yep, quite the upgrade i know.

2010 Prius to M3 LR AWD.

Pretty much the same here. Daily fuel cost for my commute was $6-7 in the Prius, daily charging cost for the same commute is now $1.62.

SShhhh, don't' say that too loud. I already left an M4 in the rearview mirror.

I used to drive my '66 HP Mustang for fun, driver was a '99 Caravan. Sold the van, and the Mustang gathers dust now.
