Hi there Guys take 2 0 0 Insta followers just srech for igbuddy
Zarko Petrovic stfu. No one wants to see the limits of the car in the snow.
I would need to test the mode to see how much It defeats the nannies. I want everything off. Period.
I don't understand why these broke ass uneducated bums review semi-luxury cars that they will never able to afford.
@@kaylee1482 Don't worry we are launching our Patreon soon! I'll send you the link when its up.
I'm a brit who's seen every episode of Top Gear since 2002, and these guys have part of that special sauce. Subbed.
Exactly!
So true. They have real Chemistry
Brits are a cult who lost their topgear leader and have been wandering astray looking for meaning ever since
exactly right!!
what type of Top Gear u were watching, your insane dude
What would be epic: make the tesla sound like a tie-fighter from star wars while accelerating
yes and YES
EVs are now required to emit some sort of sound at low speed to aid pedestrians. I'm hoping the Teslas will give you a choice of sounds you want your car to make. I'm voting for the Jetson's sound.
@@dzerres i love the saleen foursixteen's sound
@@dzerres Tesla said that they were going to allow custom sound fonts including "Monty Python horse clops"
I would buy one if they patched the car with this feature
I love the look of M2 😍
I've seen no other channels do intros like you guys! Well done!
that's actually a good thing for the other channels
I like the elevator part.
Imagine the future of the electric cars "unlock more power for just 9.99!"
Yeah can't wait for the new electric car from EA
@@mitza24 LOL :D
Can’t wait to jailbrake it..
You mean 9.99/month! You stop paying, it gets downgraded.
Tesla just upgraded the power ... for free and longer range.
Regardless, I genuinely appreciate so much that Tesla has single-handedly lit a fire under traditional car manufacturers to develop and produce other fantastic electric cars. Everyone has to respect that.
Tesla managed to do that because electric cars are not that complex compared with a gas car. Look even sony gas made an electric car. Making an electric car is not a at all a big deal.
@@golawv9851 Great. Which electric cars have you developed?
@@tokashi1 Why are we using fallacies?
@@axoltlmascot868 Yeah his comment was a bit silly. A better thing to say would be tesla is the only car company (maybe apart from the nissan leaf) that has been very popular. Heaps of other established car manufacturers can't compete with a brand new startup company. Their 2012 model s is still miles ahead technologically then any other car on the road. If electric cars weren't complex to build why is tesla the one company that has had success with electric vehicles?
@@shamicentertainment1262 technically no. Although it is the only thing they develop.
I cant even buy a 3000 dollars car and here I am watching this videos
Same
I've been there too Rodrigo. I hope someday you're in a position to get an exciting electric vehicle, but don't judge your life based upon what vehicle you can afford.
Same
My father gave me a camry
But still it's not the same as if i bought it
Rodrigo Juez, I bought my P85D when I turned 65...you got time.
Well I can afford a E46 330i 😂
"stop being a hater just love the ones you love even more"
Words to live by. People spend so much time concerned with and judgmental about what other people like, they forget to enjoy life themselves. Just like what you like and let people do the same.
You know if the car thing doesn't work out you both have a hell of a career ahead in short films industry. The intros are always stellar.
As soon as you said Manual ....I was sold on the BMW
This channel is a very pleasant discovery to me. I'm very pleased with the content and how it is delivered, the shots, narrative and a bit of humor thrown in. All that while keeping it professional. Keep it up you guys :)
Thomas! You should seriously check out the performance Model 3. It's got Track Mode designed for letting you control the car how you like on a track. From what I've seen, it's a ton of fun.
Can confirm.
Also, track mode allows you to disable traction control.
@@glennwehmeyer Not really. It just allows the back wheels to slip and drift around turns, while the front wheels pull you in the direction you want. Also, regens more aggressively at the correct points in turns. Track mode doesn't disable anything, it enabled.
Word.
Agreed. Would have been the right comparison
3:45 he goes to up-shift with a non-existent paddle shift 😂😂
Lol. Good catch!
This channel is quickly becoming my favourite car review channel. So awesome to see since you're in my neck of the woods. Awesome work guys 🇨🇦🇬🇧
This is one of the best Tesla reviews I've seen, and I've been watching all of them over the past few days. I currently drive a 2022 Civic Si, but I just spent the last week driving my friend's 2018 Long Range AWD Model 3 and it was honestly a revelation. I expected it to be numb and appliance-like. It wasn't. The steering is full of feel, better than any electric power steering ICE car I've driven, and the car handles amazingly well. The power is on another level and the delivery is very intuitive. Regenerative breaking is also great once you get used to it. It works like really strong compression braking, which I like. I'm currently searching for used Model 3's and will probably buy one within the next month once I'm done researching them.
I tried owning a Tesla, had to sell it. It gets really fucking hot and really fucking cold where I live, never in the middle, Tesla never really liked that... The steering did feel nice, but the car felt heavy. Sure, it's fun to drive, but it gets old faster than it should. I regretted selling my Evo 9. Long story short Teslas are cool, just not for me. And the fanboys are another problem altogether, lol
“Who am I?” Same thing I asked myself when I drove the Model S and the the Model 3. Can’t believe I enjoyed those cars as much as I did.
It should be a performance model 3 vs the m2 for a fair comparison
I think the point was to compare the two that are just about the same price. I think the performance model 3 is quite a bit more and then it's kinda like comparing apples to oranges.
@@samalamas12345 performance model 3 is still cheaper than m2 comp
@@samalamas12345 Wrong, the Performance Model 3 is thousands cheaper than the M2c nowadays.
All Teslas look like shit though, the BMW is a better looking, more fun car to drive.
@@ddnmkun looked it up earlier and you're totally right. I was just going off the numbers in the video that they shared but those must be old.
Too bad you didn't drive the Model 3 Performance...
We will be very soon.
@@ThrottleHouse When I first test drove the Model 3 Rear Wheel drive I wasn't as impress as I thought I was going to be. When I test drove the Model 3 Performance, I knew it was the one for me. It made all the difference. Seeing you guys excited over the Model 3 Rear Wheel drive got me thinking how much more you guys would LOVE the Model 3 Performance.
@@goodreason6462 I'm pretty sure they were driving the AWD here?
@Kevin Smith I understand the difference, I have an AWD. :) It boils down to same hardware, nigh indiscernible handling differences, +25% more torque up to about 40mph. From there the HP gap tapers very evenly towards only a sliver of difference at 140mph, where the AWD's governor limit is.
As long as you don't have an early P w/o the PUP (20" tires, brake calipers, suspension tweaks that lowers it about .4", some-day-we'll-ship-it spoiler) you'll have those small differences, too. But that's nothing compared to Track Mode.
@Kevin Smith More important question; Have you reached it, yet? ;)
I've not gotten anywhere near it. No idea where I'd test it out around here, really. Breezy to hit 100mph when passing, but need a lot of room for that last leg. I've never had any car up that high, actually. I've had a motorcycle well up past that but that's a different thing.
"Revving out the gears in this car and switching gears... it's more fun than messing with people in an elevator."
When you slapped the drink out of his hand, you earned my like :D
Really appreciated this review and the totally legit comparison between the two cars at that price!
guys this is one of the best car reviews i have seen in a long while... great job from both of you =)
Currently have a 2022 Model 3 long range and i'm seriously considering picking up a M2 Comp
In the same boat!!! Moving forward w your decision?
I had a brain aneurysm reading these comments
You're good at spelling considering
lmao !
I love how honest the tesla driver was
Why does the front end of the Tesla remiind me of Daffy Duck?
Looks like both are great cars, and after watching this excellent review, I get the impression one's choice between the two cars comes down to one's personal preferences of driving style. If you're one that loves the sound of a growling engine, the engagement of switching gears at that perfect RPM, that cockpit of dials and gauges, that astonishment of how all those thousands of parts work in perfect unison, then the M2 (or other fine ice cars are for you). But, if you just want to get from point A to point B is a calming environment listening to a great sound system, don't care about all those knobs and dials but still have all the functions, leave home every morning with a "full tank", get instant heat on those cold morning with out waiting for the "engine to warm up", are astonished by how just a couple of moving parts can instantly launch you with so little sound, are excited about a greener future with less dependency on fossil fuel and all the politics that go with with it, then the Model 3 is for you.
Domenic DeFrancesco I suggest test driving the performance model 3 before any judgements are made
If you love paying unfluctuating gas prices, maintenance every 3,000 miles so on and on. Buy a BMW 2,3, what ever.
I have a Lotus Elise and the Model3.
I get to places quicker in the 3. Test drive one. Instant torque is hard to understand on paper, it needs to be felt.
It's got amazing road feel, close to the Elise.
Calling b.s., Basel. Just because Elan swapped the drivetrain into a Lotus at the dawn of the company does not mean that later cars benefit from some sort of 'Lotus-ness'.
A Model3 weighs over *1000lbs* heavier than an Elise - and is not seam-welded. Welded chassis' feel anything BUT similar to a Tesla. Even the M2 is in a completely different league, and it's sold as a 'motorsports-derived' auto (although a legitimate homologation M-car hasn't really been mass-produced in over 20 years, but that's another matter).
HOWEVER... :-)
When you get the first service bill from the BMW dealer you'll wish you bought the Tesla.
I love BMW's but you have to REALLY love BMW to own one because they are a money pit.
And when you can get an EV that is "almost" as good in some ways and far better in other categories the choice becomes clear.
Great video!
That's like saying when you first take your Tesla to service you'll wish you'd have money left over for the BMW because you'll be waiting on the Tesla for a month while driving a shitty rental.
I wanna drive an m2 comp every day lol
For 60 Grand, I can get five really good cars...... or just share a Corolla with my mum.
i share one with my mom too hahahah
Women love that. Go for it.
And keep the 60 grand (and keep adding) in mutual funds. Let someone else be a wage slave with a car they can’t actually afford.
@Josh Too much work, constant hustle and no time for anything else is depressing AF. Time is the most precious commodity.
Orrrr make enough money where you can actually drive a nice car instead of a 5 year old Corolla 😂
Blackberry users when they used an iPhone for the first time were saying that iPhone is the future but they loved the manual clicking of the buttons, the small screen and the noise the buttons make....
You know about that comment where Thomas said he felt the street more in the Model 3 than the M2 in that specific corner, I think it is about the silence. Not only do you hear going over gravel, leaves, or imperfections, but the lack of engine noise also allows your other senses to feel more. At least that is what I speculate, I doubt the suspension setup really is better in the Model 3, I think its the lack of noise thats the main difference.
I thought long and hard about that before I said it. I wondered for a while if it was just the silence. But I still think the Model 3 communicates so well.
I own the Lotus Elise, which has manual steering called "telepathic".
Got a Model 3, and was blown away by how close it is to the Elise. Tesla learnt a lot from the roadster.
@@baselsalam You are right I totally forgot about the roadster. Tesla isnt completely new to sporty cars after all.
am I the only Model 3 owner that feels the "sense" of the road a bit annoying? This is a heavy car and the recommended psi on the tires is 42. That is a hard tire and sometimes on a rough road I think this car is too noisy. Yes , still love it, best driving fele out there and I have driven BMWs for 22 years.
Hearing the road is useful feedback.
I have 2 arms. I also have fore arms. Eats plant. 😂😂
Normally i should hate car journalists,autocar ones in england took my magic carpet ride idea and gave or sld it to Mercedes and quiet frankly are in the pockets of the car manufacturers and not their public but with you guys i dont care ,you are bloody entertaining and deserve all the success you can get.god bless ,love your stuff.
In my socialist country the BMW is heavily taxed and the Tesla is subsidized, making the M2 Competition costs 100K EUR i.e. 113K USD on this moment, while the Model 3 costs 40K EUR i.e. 45K USD on this moment.
Kind regards from Amsterdam
Politicians don't know what the hassle is to own and run an electric car because they don't own and maintain a car, someone else does it for them. The world needs to give up on this unattainable goal of going zero emissions because it's not practical to many people. There are environmentally friendly ways of manufacturing carbon neutral gasoline. These new carbon neutral fuels should be promoted. Not promoting electric cars.
2 model 3s or an m2. That simplifies the decision.
@@pcce1557 Carbon neutral fuels? Are you completely insane? Why is it that some people have to be so biased against EV's? Obviously rare and unique gasoline cars will always be around, for enthusiasts. But the vast majority of people just want a safe, cheap car. And not destroy the planet.
@@DennisEldrup Google will tell you more about carbon neutral fuel. Gasoline cars are equally or more safer than EV's. And EV's are not practical in many applications. Many people don't want a toy iPhone that has very low range and takes forever to fully charge in their driveway.
EV have their own pollution problems. They are not clean as people claim them to be.
@@pcce1557 a very low range? Lmfao. It seems that u don't know what are u talking about.
Based on the outside and inside look alone i would take the bmw eventhough i really like electro Cars. But the look just puts me of
Can't wait for your comparison with an M@ Competition on the track with Model 3 LR AWD (with nannies disabled) or the Performance version in Track Mode!
Me too!! No news about it ?
M2 not M@ of course. Sorry.
As a Model 3 owner and with all the loyalty that inspires, while I would've preferred the Model 3 to be everyone's car of choice, I am still happy at how close the cars were. I talk to a number of petrolheads and I swear, I can't go a month without someone expressing their displeasure (tactless, in my opinion) at my purchase. "There's no enjoyment in them", was what someone told me last week. If there's one thing I wish more people would realize, it's that you can still have a lot of fun with an EV. As I myself am not a petrolhead, saying the Model 3 feels fun means very little. Hearing car enthusiasts say that it's a satisfying drive is exactly what I need to help folks keep an open mind. Thanks for that.
So how do you deal with the negativity that almost everyone you meet throws at you? Do you try to explain how good it is? I would probably just give up explaining anything at all and let them continue being ignorant. After all, I'm the only one who would be driving my (future) Model 3 and I don't have to explain anything to anyone.
@@weakpig The best I've been able to do is link to articles and videos from people who are auto enthusiasts. I know most people won't understand until they try firsthand, but hearing good things from half a dozen separate publications and reviewers might make some people more open to giving cars like the Model 3 a chance. It's a fine line to walk, because you don't want to be preachy.
@@weakpig Also, I should note that I don't get negativity from almost everyone I meet. Whether by good fortune or good choices, most people I know are excited about EVs. Indeed, just last month I had an interaction with a curious *mailman* who was driving behind me for a half mile. He knew a bit about Teslas, but presumably had never talked to an owner, so he had some questions. I've never owned a car which random folks were interested in, so it was pretty funny to me :)
Twile D - Well said good sir.
@@TwileD that's exactly it. IRL folks are always nice. The only place where people are attacking Tesla and EVs relentlessly is online. This leads me to believe it's just a very loud vocal minority and worth ignoring or answering with kind and informative replies.
that skit at the beginning lmao
"It looks like a Skandinavian Living Room" So it baiscally looks like IKEA😂
Copyrighted
Hmmmmm...true
Built like Ikea too.
I really like how this video was exactly what I searched for and more! ♡
you had me at "forearms"
That moment really got me!
You cannot squeeze off a fart in a Tesla as easy as you could in a M series.
Scandinavian living room was the best description of Tesla’s interior 👍
Oh man, you guys need to drive the Model 3 perfromance version. You will love track mode!
frammis u should try doing some donuts in an m2 it’s a blast
I love the out takes and the chemistry you both have. As an E 39 M5 owner I really am nervous about the future of lost combustion engine "soul" and the disappearing manual gear box. What gives me some positive outlook is that many of the top performance auto companies are entering into this arena like Audi, Porsche , Bmw etc. Musk was a visionary disruptor. Unfortunately I think once the major auto groups ramp this technology up he will struggle to compete in all facets of the driving experience. Keep the vids coming you're spot on.
Guessing that if the model 3 you compared would have had the performance package, it probably would have put you over the edge Thomas. That is the one you need to compare on the track.
Great video guys, I really enjoy the dynamics between both of you. I've been reluctant about this whole EV thing, but your review of the Tesla Model3 makes me want to drive one.
thillyard1 yes! Absolutely go drive one. It’ll be the most interesting thing you do that day
13:59 And this little clip right here, is the very reason why no car should ever have a control setup like the Model 3.
The best control setup is the one you don't even have to look at. An "ok" control setup is where you only have to occasionally peek at it to be able to use it. A horrible control setup is the Model 3's, where you have to stare at it while occasionally peeking back at the road.
People who are praising this are out of their minds.
zolikoff As a BMW guy, I have loved the idrive control nob, but to be honest all the settings he mentions here, is hidden in menus in the BMW system as well, and would need me to look just as much on the screen as here. All standard stuff should be readily available in the Tesla it seems
Maybe I'm just getting old, but newer BMW's just don't speak to me the way the old ones did. It's hard to articulate why, but this just makes it far easier for me to choose the Tesla.
And an old BMW
I still choose the m2 ofc but you're right. I wasn't even born when it came out but the old e30s look so cool. Now I'd choose that over ANY tesla or almost any modern car for that matter.
So the Teslas speak to you like the old BMWs did? Lmao! Gtfo, fangirl comment.
It's because your old now.
And your full of shit in an old and new way !
i click on this just to watch the intro! it never fails lol, but this was a good video too
I feel like these guys are my friends and I never met them.
I traded my M2 on a tesla3 AWD, no regrets. I think you guys nailed the comparison. I think the Tesla3 + lightweight summer sports car combo is indeed the way to go.
As an owner of a long range Tesla 3 since August, I can honestly say it is the most all around fun to drive and high tech car I have ever owned or driven. Updates over the air all the time for improvements. Like getting the new version of iOs for an Iphone. Mine is the rear wheel drive and it's quick as heck. I can't imagine the dual motor or better yet the dual motor P version.
Julia, like any early adopter, should've waited for the Model 3 DP. Doesn't pay to be first in line when it comes to autos. As to over the air updates, reports have it that Tesla Inc. "selectively " give updates based on some pecking order that they've established. Not everyone with a Model three gets them, nor at the same time.
@@Newzchspy Nope. Every Model 3 owner gets updates without exception. However, cars connected to WiFi do get priority especially with the larger updates.
I like the way you two laugh with excitement in the BMW! It seems like BMW is much more fun to drive than Tesla.
Obviously. Proper gas cars with manual transmission are always more fun than electric cars.
Is it just me or did anyone else notice that the ones driving the Tesla have a very gentle and serious face, whereas the moment they step on the M2 it's all fun amd ear to ear grin?
This is actually a really interesting comparison. I like my cars loud and manual too, but I think ultimately I fear far more for the autonomous vehicle future than the change to Electric....
Honest and nice review, but the M2 comp for me, no doubt!
Loved your reviews. But the one thing that reviewers fail to discuss is autopilot. I was next to a m3 in Los Angeles traffic. He was revving and stopping and I was totally relaxing. There is NO competition when you consider that real world aspect.
Autopilot is still illigal in most countries, the countries that realize the tech is not ready yet because it can't make moral choices yet and it still fails to much.
Marco Morelli sorry not sure where ur at. I meant North America and Europe at least
@@dyhppyx It's not actually allowed in all of Europe, only in The Netherlands, UK, Germany, Austria, Spain, France and Russia. There are some important countries in there but they all allow it to different degress with The Netherlands being the clear leader. But others like Switzerland, Denmark, Belgium, all of Scandinavia, Poland, Romenia, Portugal, Hungary, Croatia, Italy, etc don't allow it yet
@@marcomorelli4051 lol,talk out ur azz
@@foam27 I am not 'talking out of my ass', if you do some research you'll find all I just said is true. Judging by your reacion tough I doubt that you know what the word research means
the m2 looks like a lovely weekend car :)
I have been watching these guys since 2019. I just bought a model 3 based on their review. Thank you guys.
I don’t know if they were sponsored by Tesla or something because i drove a model X like 2 days ago and they are kind of exaggerating some things for this comparison.
You guys are hilarious! Love how you make the car reviews funny and interesting. New subscriber here 🙋♂️
Eduardo Sánchez-Ubanell welcome Eduardo!
I drove my friends Tesla, it was super nice but lacking that performance car feeling. One day I’ll add an electric to the garage, but for now the old Audi S4 is probably gonna get sold for an M2
This video as well done. Keep it up. Great comparison.
Well done boys. Very entertaining, and informative. Like the "man" intro. Got the comic relief crash helmet on after that.
Tech guys would appreciate and understand the Tesla more. It’s like your grandfather hating smartphones and still prefer landlines. It’s the old meeting the new and there’s always going to be friction but the future is inevitable.
I wonder if Tesla would consider adding a software tweak that would allow you to choose from a number of different engine noises that would be tied to the actual acceleration of the car? Having driven a performance Model 3, while I loved almost everything about the car, I too missed having some kind of audible feedback which I, as a driver, like to use to gauge my speed without having to look at the speedo. Personally, I'd use either the sound effect of the USS Vengeance Transwarp Drive, or one of Pod Racers from Star Wars ;?D
haha low key shots fired at Cammisa with the C43 AMG being a true AMG :P
You guys are the best, I love that I found you!
Great comparison! If you get to the track, would be cool to find an M3 since it's closer in size to the Model 3. And then I guess you would have to find a Model 3 Performance to match the price. Would love to see that video :)
Quality content here. I'd not seen you before, Subscriber earned.
Definitely looking forward to a MPP + Throttle House crossover episode, to watch you giggle in one of Sasha's toys.
I was really excited to see this video but then I realized you didn't drive the performance version of the 3 . I Just a model 3 performance on a twisty back road and was completely blown away. That thing is otherworldly, and I was amazed that I didn't miss changing gears. You guys need to drive the performance!!
Can you imagine the performance Model 3.
.... and the Roadster 2.
Just found your channel thanks to this video. Keep up the quality content!
And this was the awd long range, not the performance. I rented one out for a day, drove it 200 miles, and it changed my life as a petrolhead forever. There is absolutely nothing like it. It is hard to explain... I recommend, you drive it and you'll understand. Absolutely bonkers. And the family fits in it... Too bad Tesla doesn't want to give me decent amount of trade-in money for my 2x BMWs.
I understand. ThX
That had to be one of their best intros 😂😂
Tesla looks nice but I love the M2
That m2 is a proper sports car. Call me an ///M fanboy but... Damn that is a beautiful machine!
Why don’t you guys have million plus subs? Content is superb

For the dads considering this, note that the model 3 has baby seat latch system in the back seats... And 2 trunks.
Bmw m2 is best....🔥
I test drove a 3 performance model yesterday and I immediately started saving for my 3
Great video. I owned a BMW 328xi. The BMW was by far the best car I ever owned until I purchased a Model 3. @17:18 - The silence when starting to drive really is quite eerie and at the same time very satisfying especially when music is playing.
If you *want* a car, get the M2. If you *need* a car, get the Tesla.
If you need a car with bad range that takes forever to refuel, get the tesla
After recently driving a Model 3 Performance for a few days i was blown away by just how good it was and how easy it is to become addicted to that instant throttle response, it made passing slower traffic so easy. Everything else seems archaic now so im selling my 650HP C7 Corvette to buy my own M3P.
These guys hit the right balance between comedy and technical info.
I would say that the intros are cheesy. HOWEVER, ummmm...you two pull them off surprisingly good. Sitcom in your future? LOL
The massive quality issues that effect basic cosmetics have done nothing to slow down sales and its fan base, which have been getting better as time goes.
Who tf thought that mounting the front license plate like that is a good idea?!
It's the law to have a front plate mounted in some places, most people don't like the look of a license plate anywhere in the front but they still need to have it there to not get pulled over for it. Some cars don't have mounting holes in the front bumper so you'd have to drill into your bumper to put it in the center like most cars. Cars like the M2 have a front tow hook mount that do not require drilling holes into your car and can be easily removed or installed in less than a minute. So you're able to keep it on while on the road, and you can easily take it off for a car show or taking pictures of the car.
The committee who decides whether your state will require a front plate or not doesn't give a FFFF about cars and it is very sad :(
Basically what alan_mirz said. Also if you mount it in a more central place you would likely block the grill, and you dont want to do that on a performance car lol
Are you talking about the M2? Obviously the owner didn't wanna drill holes in the front bumper and used an adapter that works with the tow hook location. I did the same on mine.
@@Tripp55 I don't get why manufacturers dont take front plates more into consideration like the rear plates. Most places need them now. Luckily I like in a US state that does not need one.
I love the BMW M2 Competition so much and I dont like BMWs!
Couldn’t decide either so Tesla model 3 for the week and M2 (not comp….) for the weekend. That’s the way to go for me! Don’t regret anything. Love both cars all the way! The model 3 is much more fun than I’d imagine initially… M2 sounds even better with a good aftermarket exhaust.
wait.... 60 k subs... and that production/camera quality! nice going guys!
pedro caramori I count 66k 😉
I'd have loved to see a Performance Model 3 up against it. A simple Model 3 AWD is going to only do "okay" on the track, against the M2 track beast.
As many pointed out the M2 is a performance variant you want it to compare to the Model 3 performance on the track. Recently an Model 3 just ran the 3rd fastest time at Laguna for a road car using just street tires. This beat out I believe all the Germany cars in the sub 100K price range.
@@netgeek3010 But they're trying to keep the cars under 60K USD in this video, which puts Tesla at a large disadvantage.
Steven Day The funny thing is they setup this situation I believe to put the base level AWD Model 3 vs the M2. The reality they are comparing a 2 door smaller car that's just below 60K by 1,450 dollars. Put the M3 verse the Model 3 performance you will see some differences. The whole setup was to weaken the best situations for the Model 3.
The best part of your channel is the intro. You would just wanto watch it more. You guys must have put a lot of plans into the intro. 😂
your videos are the best on youtube :)
Oh god that M2...❤️
That engine sound never gets old….ICE for life ❤
