So many battery boys getting upset in here. You can read the tears being fought back as they march back down to mom and dads basement to slam the door and scream into a pillow. EV racing sucks. EV cars suck. Charging a car every heat at the track sucks. Then there are the newest of BMW fans blathering how EV is leagues better than ICE and they have a decade of use at best to base this claim. In the end we all will drive whatever ticks our boxes.

You sound whiny and emotional. Ironic considering your comment. “eV CaRs SuCK!” Lmao. Now tell the nice doctor where the EV touched you.

By the way, what % of M3 buyers use their cars as track cars? I’ll answer it for you - a negligible amount.

He says, coming into a thread specifically about an EV.

Yes, I am just beside myself at the thought of a quad-motor high performance BMW EV. It's been keeping me up at night. Unfortunately my terrible EV is too quiet to drown out my screams of anguish, and my tears got on my charging port and ruined my plug. Curse you BMW for making this horrible M3 EV a reality and ruining my life!

Probably in the top 3 of cars I see at the track. Porche, Miata and M’s.

I don't know if it does, I haven't driven it. Will have to ask mom & dad if I can come out of the basement to test it when the time comes. But it sure sounds great to me, though I'm likely not going to get a sedan at my current station in life. Just hoping that any learnings/tech permeate through the rest of the lineup as applicable.

Ahh, so in your anectodal experience, probably less than 4-5% of all M3s sold right (that was meant to be tongue in cheek)?

I see where your hatred of EVs is coming from now. You feel “marginalized” don’t you?

Cool render though.

Actual experience bud and no, I don’t feel marginalized. Are you seriously telling me you don’t see tons of M cars at track days? Must be a hard parking, stance for the Gram, freeway swimmer? Hence the electric fascination, so you can claim the fastest light to light crown in your local city?
