After 50 or 60 or so they all drop anchor and my M4 is much scarier/faster. Not quicker, faster. Rarely do I have a clear empty public street to do 60+ at WOT. No regrets selling the quicker Tesla for daily driving since I haven't done the 0 to 60 since showing every friend and family member in the first month of ownership. No one cares how quick my M4CX is to 60. They want a ride because the looks, sound, handling, brakes, interior, build quality. The $20/month electricity vs $50 per week premium gas is worth it. A drag racer my M4CX is not.
Apologies for the long-winded post.
I have the same. 22 model 3 LR with acceleration boost.

Car is a beast to about 80-90 until it falls flat on it's face. However from a dig, not many cars out there that will hang.

Tesla has the best torque vectoring system out there. Immediate traction with full torque all the time. It's so addicting.

As I was merging on to HWY 2020 model looking 911 turbo S and a panamera turbo s were hauling a$$

Jumped in the tail to follow

The 911 got stupid power at speed.

Thing could leap frog 5 cars like nothing

It would make a pop noise then a spark of flame on shift

I was mostly spectator

Reminded me of what a dedicated sports car can do more so than what a sedan is capable of.

911 showed his @$& for sure… can't imagine it was stock it popped shot flame and was ghost

Could of been an RS I don't know for sure…

That mo fo was ghost

It wasn't a race exactly but during a group ride in the hills 2 different Camaro ZL1s could not escape as I trailed them. In the straights going full throttle, I was approaching them pretty easy.

KIA Ioniq EV6 tried to do an unannounced race (video):
https://g80.bimmerpost.com/forums/sh...53&postcount=5

Didn't go well for it despite starting acceleration unannounced at a half-car length ahead. I think they really thought they'd keep ahead given that they even tried. Lol.

The front dash cam is great (4K). What you see in the video is what you get.

The rear dashcam footage (1080p) you're seeing in the video is NOT how it looks raw off the dashcam - it's darker, less vibrant, lacking contrast, etc. and I'm generally not impressed with it. My rear window tint combined with the steep slope of the window probably contributes to that outcome. What you see in the video is color corrected in Vegas Pro to the point I can tolerate the footage.

Unfortunately, this is sort of the state of the dashcam industry right now. But otherwise great cam - I like that it comes with a WiFi ac built in so I can pull videos off the car after a drive very fast while standing in the general vicinity. Because I have the cam running off a battery pack (for 24x7 recording), I can also get footage off sitting at my desk.

For longer videos though, I always pull the memory card to copy and sort as needed.

Appreciate the info! Which battery pack? Does the car charge the pack while running? Or do you have to switch out the pack to keep it recording at all time? Been looking for something like this but didn't know where to start. Is it easy to mount them? Thanks again

Some guy in his lifted Chevy truck. I had the top down and waved while putting on the turn signal as I blew past him. At the next light he gave the thumbs up and was laughing.

Got royally spanked a couple of times from a roll by a white X3M. At 1st I thought wow what a difference between my manual and an auto transmission. But the ease at which he pulled away from me there had to be more going on.
The driver of the X3M told me he had a Paul Johnson aka F80Paul E60 tune. His website shows 675+whp! I believe it this thing was a monster.
Getting ready to send my ECU out to get unlocked

It was the same memo that told Lexus owners they were driving performance vehicles.

It's good not to take the easy bait! A few weeks ago I had a Nissan 370Z trying to get my attention, he was more annoying than impressive. I purposefully maneuvered away from him, haha.
