When you said the Model 3 Performance is "akin to a 7 series - it's pretty heavy" that didn't make sense. Comparing a 7 series, especially an electric awd version, the 7 series is almost 1/3 heavier so it would be surprising they feel similar. As for ride quality between the two, it isn't comparable as the 7 series has a much longer wheelbase and is built for an entirely different purpose. The Model 3 is not a light car by any means but all modern sport sedans aren't light. The BMW M3 is only 60 lbs lighter than the Model 3P. The Mercedes c63 is 800 lbs heavier than the M3P. If you look at all modern sports sedans (including ICE cars) the M3P is quite average in terms of it's weight and likely lighter than most other sport oriented EVs.

Would love to see the M3P on a circuit track. Lots of variety at this car meet though.

What a waste of time. More than 2/3 about this stupid car meet, not lining-up with the title of this video?
