I can tell you right now, the m3P can hang with my mid engine Porsche when it comes to handling and is faster around a track using the same driver on the same track than many sports cars including my 718(Top Gear test track/ The Stig)
62. Tesla Model 3 Performance The Stig 1:21.50 487 / 1846
63. Aston Martin DB11 The Stig 1:21.50 608 / 1902
the list goes on but you get the picture....People who think they are only good in a straight line have never actually driven one....
I have had many many fun and fast cars in my life and the M3P is one of my favorite cars I've ever owned....not paying close to $6 a gallon these days here in Cali is just a nice bonus

$6 fuel is a result of your state Government policies, not with the concept of internal combustion. SMOG is a problem with your state's geography. Yet, for some reason California gets to dictate to the world what type of vehicle everyone must drive. CARB regulations get a pass from EPA statutes. The other 49 state taxpayers get to foot the bill.
