The issue with fake engine sounds is that it goes against what Tesla stands for as a company. We don´t need to glorify fossils. I completely understand why some people would want it, and it would be fun as a parlor trick, but ultimately fossils are the past, and electric is the future. I see why Tesla won´t add this as a feature, even though it would be easy to implement and fun for some people.

I have the same dual motor, now have 20k miles on it. I had the E93 BMW V8 M3 before this. Ironically, both the BMW and Tesla weigh the same and have the same range. I know, crazy to realize that! One of the most striking differences I have found is the immediacy of the Tesla power. When you think about the BMW V8 power routing through the transmission, then driveshaft, into differential, through the limited slip assembly, then out to half shafts and wheels, there is just a ton of “slack” that must be accounted for in every application of acceleration, braking, or traction control. With the Tesla, it’s under digital servo control. When you ask for any power response, you’re not waiting for a dozen different couplings along the way to mate up in a specific direction and start transmitting that torque. The Tesla just does what you need it to do instantly. As for the brakes, they’re Brembos and are more than sufficient for quick short noise free stops in street driving. People always think they need the performance brakes to stop quicker. It’s not true, the larger performance brakes only give you additional resistance to the effect of thermal fade when driving high speeds on track. Tires on the Model 3 are the limiting factor. The “green” foam filled Michelin’s are excellent for range and economy but are just respectable enough for handling. Swapping for a wider/sticker wheel&tire package really takes spirited Model 3 driving into another realm, but at the expense of about a 20% loss in range. You’ll have to decide if that’s a worthwhile exchange. For me it was well worth it to go to 275’s as my car will still go over 200mi per charge and it handles better than my V8 M3. I have no regrets! I still love BMW’s and look forward to a true ///M electric from them, but unless they really create something really special, Tesla will continue to lead for some time.

Thumbs up just for being hilarious - "so quiet you can hear a squirrel fart in here"

Nice

80K for 300km winter range. Plugging in every night is a must for real commuters

I want those wheels.

Car sound? No!

How good is the a/c?

Where did you get those rims? They look way better than the standard aero wheel.

Maybe a dumb question but how tall are you? Read somewhere that the seats are small for taller people. 184cm myself

What wheels are those? Very nice!

How many times did he say "Really"...? Donno cuz I lost count!

"let me tell you".

No horrible ice sounds! Come on, man. It sounds so dated, instead of cool.

You never mentioned the money you save driving it and I never need to stop at a gas station again, I’ve had an electric for nearly 3 years and no gas stops breathing those lovely fumes and no service stops and cost is great. I will never buy a gas car again! Only tires and window washer fluid and you are done!

how much resale value if you get bored in a year of driving?
