I've ridden in a friend's 3. It's quick, but if you compared stats, it's only about as fast as a stock 335i. The instant torque makes it feel quicker though. Didn't really test out handling, but in normal daily driving conditions, there's not much body roll through turns.

I am really bugged by one "over-engineered" aspect of it though, specifically how the center console cubby is difficult to close, and if you repeatedly don't close it correctly, a message shows up that tells you to close it softer. Why is this necessary? Just build a better cubby door.

On a side note, the build quality still bugs me, and although Tesla owners can rationalize it, I for one cannot. My buddy had a fogging rear light after his first wash, a misaligned badge, and some unexplained noises. Unacceptable on a $50k new car.
