Elon is always late to the party, but he said it back when he was hyping the robo taxi stuff they would be getting rid of the steering wheel soon! Lucky guy must have gotten the beta!

$15K for full serf drive is starting to look like a bargain now, isn't it

Is it over yet?

Up over $200, +91% YTD.

I don't follow TSLA except peripherally but let's look:
RSI is positive, I think topping out
MACD histogram is slightly down, flat now
Fast stochastic is crossing over slow stoch' downwards but has been flat over the last several weeks
Current valuation is below the 200 day moving average
I would say it will hit resistance at about $225, which will be about the 200 day moving average then trend down

Must be Elon's quick release option

Except for the X... something about the shape of that one doesn't sit right with me.

They are quite literally the blandest vehicles on the road. The vehicular equivalent of tract housing.

This is perfect for someone who just wants a basic A to B vehicle that doesn't attract an ounce of attention. No one will look at you, and they certainly won't hear you coming or going either.

Tesla owners seem to wax lyrical about how fast their cars accelerate. Pretty pointless when the brakes are so bad….

Does anyone give two f0cks about how fast a car accelerates to 60 mph these days? Are we in high school? You buy a car so you "race" someone from your local Whole Foods to the Starbucks drive thru?

I cannot tell you how far down the list 0-60 is on my list of criteria when buying a car.

Sheepishly raises hand... Me...

Stepping on the go-pedal and getting pushed back in the seat is quite a good thing!

is this a serious question?

common folk don't care....car guys/gals do


people spend thousands of dollars on mods just to shave 0.4 seconds off their 0-60 times..

what's the point of making exotic sports cars or stuffing super charged V8's in trucks and wagons if people don't care about speed???

Going faster than the guy next to you goes back to after the 2nd car ever rolled off the assembly line in 1908

[BGM-M3COMP]

Yet a quick scroll to the g8x section will show many posts saying they got the xdrive because????????????

Faster 0-60 times.

Hehehehe. This is great. I love ev power!

Uhm Yea stupid kids or clueless non car musk fanboys do who watched fast and furious and think "Racing" is punching thr gas and holding the wheel straight (and without AWD and traction/stability control they'd crash and die with the inevitable torque steer they have no clue what it is and make even worse when attempting to correct it but crash and burn and die showing they have no clue wtf they're doing), and they think if they win in a 1000hp car against a 200hp car it's because they are a "pro racer dude" and have skill.

That's the mentality of musk fanboys.

Put them on a track and watch them get slower lap times in a plaid against a some once a year euro track guy in a 1990 Honda civic with 110 hp by like 50-70% per lap

I also can't stand tuner culture here either. So you bought a a90/91 supra, put a fuking AERO kit on it, tuned it to 800hp, but all you do is go on the drag strip? Wtf was the wing for then moron? Also mickey Thompsons and small wheels are so hideous and ugly on these drag strip queen cars it's disgusting. These kids have never heard of a track. Of course they only go on the drag strip if they went on a track they'd be humiliated by a true driver in a 1970 Toyota and it wouldn't even be close. Then the tuner boys would cry and say "tracks don't matter" and quickly run back to the drag strip

Hey, I’m just wondering and have a quick question. You’re not thinking to yourself that tesla has the same high-level quality suspension systems and steering as Porsche, Ferrari, Lamborghini and McLaren are you? Just wondering.

I didn’t even know that guy existed. Thank you for that. What a great video. Cool stuff. All those cars are freaking fast. I’d still take the Bugatti though. The Lucid and the Tesla are just both ugly.

did you see the lap times?

even stock M3P was faster than a bunch of high dollar sports cars....you put a suspension mod and some sways and it gets better.



the lap times don't lie...The Tesla is a fraction of the cost of cars it is beating on tracks across the country and stomping cars that cost up to 7 times its price in 1/8 mile and 1/4 mile.


I have a 718 Cayman, and the M3P is faster than a 718 CS and a 981 GTS on the same track with the same driver....that is pretty damn good for a four door sedan.
I'm not upset by that and after getting one last week its easy to see how.


I think people just hate the fact that they do more than just smash their cars from 0-60 and try to ignore the fact that they are more than just a one trick pony.

Obviously it isn't up their with the latest and greatest Ferrari, Lambo or Macs, but it is also much much much less money and can compete with just about any production car on a track.

You should watch the video of Randy Pobst talk about driving the m3P at Buttonwillow

[BGM-M3COMP]

I literally beat an f80 off a light today in my “slow” long range model 3.

Not much traffic but I destroyed him off the light and in no time I was doing 90. Saw him about to do a ricer fly by but my exit was coming up anyway so I took that lane and claimed victory. I know he was pissed because he just zoom zoomed by lmaoooo

No, that’s not what I meant man. I don’t think the Tesla suspension is designed to be on tracks. That doesn’t mean somebody that knows what they’re doing can’t whiz around the track a couple of times and get some good times. I was not aware that these cars were race cars regardless of what someone is doing on a quick time check lap. Can they handle long-term track time like an M5 or an M3 can? Or like a Porsche can? No doubt they are fast as all get out. Look at that video he posted. Holy crap. I don’t care that the Lucid and beat it. They’re both Hella fast. I think it’s cool. But if you put that Bugatti up against both those electric cars in a 24 hour track race what’s going to happen? Hell how about just a 400 mile track race? I’m asking because I truly don’t know.

I guess it's better than figuratively beating an F80.
