Not saying it isnt an interesting (if expensive for what it is) car, that probably has best of class drivetrain (we will see how Overk1ll rates his new Audi...). 3.5s 0-60 is interesting a few times, but as someone with a 5.5s 0-60 car, its not particularly useful after the first few novelty runs.

I have never done a 0-60 run in out Model 3 or GS. Or any of our cars.
For me, the fun of a performance sedan is not 0-60 runs or top speed. It is the driveability, the handling, the overall package design.
Not even so much the actual numbers, rather it is the excitement of the car.
The instant torque makes a Model 3 really quick and it handles flat. It feels faster. Just give it some throttle and try and stop smiling.

Of course any performance sedan worth its salt should be able to recognize cones in real time, right?
All good.


Good choice of music!
