I've owned a Model 3 Perf. in the past and purchasing another one, soon. It'll be a 2021/2022. My biggest gripe about the car was it not having great chassis dynamics. Weight transfer was slow, rolled a lot in turns, etc. I'm wondering if the OEM dampers play nicely with aftermarket...

Does the inside view look like the picture I posted? What percentage did you go with? Any chance you have a picture from the outside? Thanks!

I've heard good things about Nikola

Yes, this. Quite floaty. I don't recall similar, as-heavy sport sedans being this floaty (S4, Stinger, 340 x drive, etc) In those longer, higher speed turns, with any undulation, my confidence definitely takes a hit in the P3D

Really helpful-- thanks! If it isn't too much trouble, a picture of yours from the inside would be great. I have two carseats in the back, one of which is still rear facing. VERY good point about getting a darker tint for that double tint portion

Yep, 100%. I wanted to make sure I prefaced the message with that. There are some hefty sports sedans and sports cars in the same weight range, but with better poignancy and composure. Interesting, because I was going to suggest my previous S4s exhibited better chassis dynamics than the...

Who switched to a M3P from a proper sports car (i.e. BMW M3/M4, Merc C63, Caddy V, Audi RS, Vette, higher trim Stang/Camaro, etc)? If so, which one? I knew there was going to be a drop in handling/chassis performance, but it's a bit more than I was hoping for. The track numbers and certain...

I've done a lot of reading, and there are two camps: - Full: worth the extra money, cleaner look, separation of doing half looks tacky, etc - Half: noticeably lower cost, cannot tell from the outside, can see the difference from inside, but when looking through rearview, bottom part of rear...

Is there a premium? Is that why?

thanks for the heads up! I just nabbed a Performance that was local inventory. Few thousand off, as well. Little discount always helps. Sweet! VIN just showed up on my account.

Great that deliveries for M3P are starting in February! Gives me hope that March is likely for the West.

Your sarcasm aside, 70 WHP is a very discernible difference, and impacts day-to-day enjoyment. Even staying within PSLs, the stop light springs, passing, etc, will be a different experience with 70 WHP less. This is especially true when someone spends $$ more to get the faster trim. Anyway, all...

Thanks for this! Really helpful. So key is 75% SOC or above. The drop off below 75% is significant! Porsche must increase power to compensate for this. Despite the moniker of 'Performance', I guess the key focus of a Performance Model 3 or any Tesla for that matter is practicality and...

I might be late to the party here... but I just came across a mentioning that the Performance doesn't have full power at anything less than a full charge. Is that true?? Perhaps I was naive to think the Performance acted similarly to the Taycan in that it used full power until the battery...
