I got rid of my F80 M3 last year and got a Tesla Model 3 Performance (fully loaded) around December. I never test drove the vehicle once, so it was a big gamble for me and I didn't know what to expect.

Let's just say I was pleasantly surprised. I no longer have to worry about fueling up while I am out (I do it at home), it's ridiculously fast, handling is awesome, I really like the minimalist interior (less buttons and nooks to dust), the car is constantly being updated with new features (i.e sentry mode), and I love the regenerative braking. The biggest plus as well is the piece of mind that it won't have the same issues mechanically as an M car and maintenance on the vehicle is minimal. I could easily see myself put +250,000 kms on this car, whereas before when I owned BMW's, I was always limited the kms I drove on them.

I definitely recommend anyone who hasn't driven an electric vehicle to try out a Tesla Model 3.
Sooo what do you think of the Tesla model 3 seats vs the BMW M3? I personally didn't like them. For some reason they always felt hot.
