They're a lot more common out here than in your neck of the woods since I'm in Tesla country.
I believe the marketing materials said it would be better than the M3, so I expect it to be better on the track as well. Maybe I should have said 'sustained performance' which is what most people in HPDEs are looking for

Electric cars are great for getting a divorce after you take your significant other from a standstill to 62 in under 3 seconds. They cannot expend large amounts of power sustainably, it is simply impossible, so my interest in them is zero until they can. And they will not be able to anytime in the mid term future
