Thank you all for watching and the support on this video! A very highly requested video was just posted of the M2 racing a 2024 Tesla Model 3 Performance. Check it out - ua-cam.com/video/unHwS_lgNxw/v-deo.html
@@JVette01 I just picked up a used 2021 model 3 long range and I have a stage 2+ 440i as my fast car and sadly enough when I raced both the tesla was only half a car behind 😭
The Model 3 Performance is a LOT faster than the LR AWD Model 3 and it costs less than the M2. It will go 0-60mph in 2.8 seconds and it has a top speed of 163 mph. It would be a more accurate comparison between the M2 BMW and Model 3 Performance.
I understand that, but as mentioned in the video, these are both MY vehicles. I just wanted to compare them for fun to see the difference.. I already raced a new M3P and it will be posted next month.
@@JVette01 Yeah, thanks for the reply. I agree, I have always felt that the AWD Model 3 is a little rocket ship, and it is an interesting video to see how it performs against the M2. I really don't know much about the M2, but if it beats the Model 3 AWD, it must be fast. I own a 2022 RWD Model 3 and it beats just about everything on the road in normal driving. I had a supped-up muscle car pull up beside me, and you could tell this guy thought his car was the fastest thing on four wheels. When I pulled out, I was going at normal speed, but he roared by me to show his dominance. Something came over me and I floored it and passed him, he floored it and sort of caught up with me slowly, but he couldn't really pass me. We hit 85 mph plus in a 40 mph zone and so I backed off. It was hilarious. I don't think he could understand how my lowly Model 3 had passed him like he was standing still and that he couldn't overpower me like he was so used to doing with other cars. I usually never do this because I consider it very unsafe, but it was interesting to see his reaction. I am sure that after I slowed down and he was still accelerating, he looked foolish to himself. His car sounded like it was turbocharged and was modified for speed, and for all its power, he could not pass me. It was definitely some kind of muscle car. I think he drove away a little humbler, which is good because he was arrogant based on how he drove.
@@franklong6269 I have the 24 M3P - it will get passed after 120 mph by most ICE cars with similar power and will eventually get gapped the higher the speed. Under 110 mph, it is faster than almost anything on the street. Guys who really care about top speed and drag will not like the M3P as much. What the M3P does well is how it corners on backroads - the more it has to slow down before a turn the better because it rocket out of every corner.
@@franklong6269or maybe he just likes to drive his car fast, doesn't mean that he was trying to "show his dominance" lol typical tesla driver response.
The Model 3 Performance has 510 hp and quarter mile time of 11.0 @ 122 mph. The M3 CS did beat it in the quarter mile but not by much. It’s tough to beat electric cars especially with only two wheel drive. Electric cars have full torque at zero rpm’s. It’s still impressive that the M2 is so fast! Great video….thanks once again
No hate on the Tesla model 3 performance it’s straight line speed for it’s price is beyond amazing in my opinion but in many other ways the m2 destroys the Tesla like on track
The new M3P has upgraded motors, so even if boost becomes available on the LR, it still won’t be nearly as quick as the new M3P. LR with boost is close to the first gen M3P, slightly quicker actually at higher speed, when equipped with 18” rims.
its fucking crazy that an entry level ev from tesla is able to keep up with a m2 up to 120mph that means the tesla is just as fast or faster in real world street condition.
Interesting. Definitely closer than I expected (my daily is the M3 LR). Course I imagine you hit a winding road, and the M2 will disappear quickly. But all things considered, the new Model 3 LR AWD is still fun around curvy roads.
Tha'ts actually insane that a long range is that quick, I can't imagine the Performance! But if you think about it, there is no way in hell you guys are gonna be pulling 140 on a regular street. Most of the times the Teslas are always gonna win unless your car is HEAVILY modified
With the vids side by side, it looks like the 40 roll results are pretty similar between the Model 3 and that black Stage 1 E85 MK8 Golf R that this M2 went up against several months ago
Not sure if you guys accounting for this, but the top speed of the Tesla Model 3 Highland is 125mph (limited). Letting you guys know because it seems right around there that the M2 starts to pull away. The Model 3 Performance has a higher top speed of 145mph (also limited), which would probably be a better comparison anyways if you were to ever do this again
Im loving this community and its comments. No aggression towards the Tesla and making negative comments on it and actually appreciating what it is. I have many Supercars in my collection but utilise the new model 3 performance as my daily car and for a daily car, it’s actually one of my favourites
The M2 and Tesla are both fast, I raced both on a track with curves and the Tesla finished almost 5 seconds behind the M2, drag racing is fun but the M2's real potential is on the track. The Tesla's suspension and brakes are terrible, the performance is only good in a straight line, that's all!
Yes. Not sure what all the love is for Tesla and EVs in general. Power/speed for the $$$ I guess. Of course they are quick. Instant torque and power so it shouldn't be surprising. The Rivian is much quicker off the line than a TRX or Raptor R, but thats not the reason people are buying those supercharged V8s. Not to mention a Rivian is completely outshined by those two on anything off pavement as an example.
@@JVette01 no disrepect at you! Just an observation in general. We both know everything is going full EV in time so it makes seeing and hearing ICE so satisfying. Especially M cars
Yes, it's a perfect daily for me. I do a agree, they should've at least made it 135 like the long range Model Y. Stay tuned for the race with the performance. Will be posted sometime early next month, it's already filmed.
Tesla are insane when you punch them, I was expecting the M2 to win as the speeds increased but I was not expecting the Tesla to hang as long as it did and fight that hard.
If you want, you can install ingenext mod and get an extra 50 hp and it’ll drop your 0 to 60 from 4.2 seconds to 3.7 seconds and your quarter mile will be around 11.7
Electric's instant torque from low speed is insane. However, for model 3 LR (new M3P is a lot better), max power output dies off from 60mph+ and falls off a cliff once past 90mph. I have measured it only had max output about 1/2 of its peak power at 90mph+ compared to at lower speed.
@@JVette01 You actually might be right. I remember I was at 35% charge and had a run to work in Mexico with a Durango, it just walked very slowly past him past 120mph+, and i looked down the output was only like 240 hp at the speed, haha.
The state of charge mainly affects top end. 0-60 will be similar even at like 20-30% but the top end will suffer. Needs to be close to full for the top end to be strong
That’s the cool part about EVs, they love the heat. The hotter it gets the quicker/faster they get (not talking about track duty and battery/motor heat soak but for day to day pulls). I mean I loved my turbocharged cars à 30 degress, but you rarely do any races at those temperatures
I love the comments below. Like people are going to be getting into these mystery races on the way to work lol. The Tesla is a comfortable, excellent commuter and family car, that just happens to be able to keep up or beat with any supercar on the streets and is very economical, not needing super unleaded and getting 18mpg. If you drive on the streets, like in these videos, good luck with tickets, insurance and crashes. If you want a race car, buy a car meant to race on the track.
The Tesla is quick. But that is all. The M2 looks better, sounds better, handles better, has a better interior, is more fun to drive, and will hold it's value better in years to come. The Tesla could be half the price and I'd still want the M2.
@@JVette01 Yes, the Tesla is a good daily for somebody who can charge at home, and doesn't mind whirring around without an engine sound. I only have room for one car (and a work van), so it wouldn't suit my lifestyle. And I'm slightly biased as I have an OG M2 as my fun car 🙂
Thank you for this. I have a 2024 M3 LR AWD. Still hoping for Tesla to give us Acceleration boost like the past (maybe will come with a higher limiter too?). One can dream. This car is beyond fast enough for me and can sip power on road trips if I'm light on the "gas" lol.
You know what would be a good race, taking the M2 up against a C8 Stingray! Similar price and I could see them being cross shopped, know anyone with a Vette 😂
From a dig or low roll, absolutely. Unless the Tesla is very low on state of charge (SOC). However, stay tuned, I did this race already and will be posted next month.
@@G82WattsI mean the panasonic car has been clocked at 10,9@124-125mph by multiple people on the street, for sure it beats the new m2. Maybe not by much but it does. As for the m3-m4 probably not in the 60-130 but close
If I warmed up the tires first, M2 would’ve done better. I’ve experimented with different techniques since shooting this vid. The long range, while very quick, doesn’t have that break neck take off that the performances have, it’s more of a gradual roll on from a dig. However, in a roll it’s very good.
@@JVette01 Especially in your location and wrong fuel being used on top, but you know this car is still plenty fast in general and it cracks me up knowing you beat Camaro SS and M340i with all that being said performing badly! My comment was for OP btw!😂
The non performance tesla's max speed limit is 125mph. They dont pull as hard after speed of 100mph. That's why the BMW lost the first few seconds and beat it at the end. 0-60 the bmw is no match for the tesla.
Yeah, but the insurance on the tesla is gonna be double that of the M2. So you'll end up paying more for that cheaper tesla in the long run. Tesla insurance is ridiculously expensive. I quoted to add a tesla module 3 to my current insurance plan and the tesla alone was going to cost more than the other two cars on my plan. One car being a brand new luxury sports car, which you think would be expensive right? Well, compared to tesla, luxury sports cars are dirt cheap to insure lol. The tesla doubled my 6 month premium, absolutely insane. I guess it's because they're so cheaply made and break all the time, and the replacement parts are ridiculously expensive to get, that insurance companies know they'll lose big if they don't charge a fatter rate. I know how Elon runs his tesla factories.. And you can too if you read the latest book on him. It's no surprise why tesla are so poorly made. Elon makes them cut literally every corner possible to keep costs down.. For better or worse lol
In my opinion it was an interesting race showing how a very sensible daily car such as the EV can be without missing out on performance and also showing how quick the M2 really is

@@G82Wattsthey raced it vs a slower Tesla on purpose
damn the fact that its only the long range is super impressive, keeping up w the s58 is insane
I know! It's crazy.. and people seem to think my M2 is "faster than normal" which makes this result even more crazy

@@josephparker9726 Yes. My buddy has a 2024 Performance. Video is already filmed, just not uploaded yet.
The street dig won't be close but the roll will....
Now do it with acceleration boost. It would be almost as fast as a performance model 3
I definitely need to start saying in my race videos that the 2024 DOES NOT HAVE AN OPTION for an acceleration boost like the old one

Yeah it’s not the best handler but a darn good daily with some incredible stoplight/passing power
The one I’ve been waiting for.
I told you! Haha. Patience is key ;)
So curious to see a new race if you will add the upcoming acceleration boost on your Model 3
maybe but idek if/when that will be out for us models
Too much credit going to the tesla...
The M2 deserves all the credit! RWD and ICE, only advantage the M2 had was a decent driver as usual

Now buy the acceleration boost from the tesla app for 2k 😅
Already mentioned several times it’s NOT AVAILABLE for 2024+ US spec model 3 LR right now
Hopefully they bring acceleration boost to the new long range eventually. Will help off the line but still has no top end sadly
It actually has pretty decent top end when it’s close to full charge. Doesn’t fall on its face like you may think
I have the same LR one and it is pretty strong. Too bad it's limiter is 126mph. Would love to see the new Performance model and how it would do.

Can't have everything come out at once haha. Stay tuned! Patience is key.
Wow rs3 was surprising to me, m2 vs model 3 LR was closer than I thought it would.
Interesting to see the model 3 performance vs the m2
soon
Have you thought about buying the acceleration boost on the LR? 🤔
That was something offered on the old gen. They have yet to announce something like that. Either way, I most likely wouldn't because it's a lease.

Yes if it doesn’t have the drivers package
I have the exact same spec G87. Running 93 octane in PA. Not sure that would make much of a difference.
Honestly I don’t think so. BMW did a great job making sure the m2 performs great in all conditions
Great vid👌
Thanks!
Dont forget, the Long range is Limited in the end Speed, that is the point when you pass….
Look at the 60 roll
That’s the cool part about EVs, they love the heat. The hotter it gets the quicker/faster they get (not talking about track duty and battery/motor heat soak but for day to day pulls). I mean I loved my turbocharged cars à 30 degress, but you rarely do any races at those temperatures
Thankfully the M2 doesn’t really get affected by the heat much. But yes, with electric it didn’t matter haha
@@JVette01 Yeah BMW nailed that tuning for it to perform in 100 degree heat and on 91 octane that's pretty incredible
True say
But it would be a good race

You should run a c8 corvette, on a dig you have no chance but on a roll it should be close.
We’ll see! Coming soon
U guys live in El Paso?
Mexico.
You need to add Acceleration Boost to your M3LR.
That’s a common mistake.. The 2024 new Model 3 does not have an acceleration boost available
@@JVette01that’s a shame as I think you are the customer who would get the most use from it.
Yeah, but it’s a lease, so I probably wouldn’t buy it. Maybe when the lease is up I’ll look into a M3P if there are no ICE cars I want at the time.
Once you drive electric the throttle response on a gas car feels like an eternity.
This is kinda true haha. It spoils you. However, I still love driving all kinds of different cars.
Need to put in the 2025 M3P.
Read the comments. Already done, will be posted next month
Excellent vids
Try to race the G87 against a GTR
If I can find a stock one. However, I think it would beat me pretty easily as the weight is similar but it makes 100 more hp and awd.

Does your m2 have the m drivers package?
No
Pretty solid races. How much did the Tesla SOC go down after all those pulls?
Usually 1% per pull so maybe it went down to about 82-83%
Looks close but the Tesla limiter at 125 happens fast dam
It does!
the model 3 performance would be a much more fair fight
Already mentioned several times.. that will be posted in the future. I already did that race.

Slowest turd ever! Complete waste of money only 401 horsepowe and moves out like a snail especially from a dig!!😂😅
In the heat it performs horribly. However, if you have perfect conditions and e30 in the tank, it performs great!
@@JVette01 Especially in your location and wrong fuel being used on top, but you know this car is still plenty fast in general and it cracks me up knowing you beat Camaro SS and M340i with all that being said performing badly! My comment was for OP btw!😂
You can buy a Performance M3 for
One is a kitchen appliance. Irrelevant comparison.
k
You just ruined the rs3 for me 😂
To be fair, it was very hot that day.. but yes, the RS3 would get demolished in a roll from the Tesla unless the RS3 is on an E30 mix.
Drive an RS3 and then go try a Tesla and report back to me 😂
@@speeddemonRS3he owned a RS3 lol
@@b58Narek I meant OP
The non performance tesla's max speed limit is 125mph. They dont pull as hard after speed of 100mph. That's why the BMW lost the first few seconds and beat it at the end. 0-60 the bmw is no match for the tesla.
Believe it or not, mine does still pull decently after 100 if the battery is close to full
@JVette01 the tesla still pull after 100mph but not as hard. I think the tesla will win for sure from 0-100mph
m3p is 550 hp
It’s 510 according to several sources.
No wonder you dumped the Audi. Slow!
Yeah, but the insurance on the tesla is gonna be double that of the M2. So you'll end up paying more for that cheaper tesla in the long run. Tesla insurance is ridiculously expensive. I quoted to add a tesla module 3 to my current insurance plan and the tesla alone was going to cost more than the other two cars on my plan. One car being a brand new luxury sports car, which you think would be expensive right? Well, compared to tesla, luxury sports cars are dirt cheap to insure lol. The tesla doubled my 6 month premium, absolutely insane. I guess it's because they're so cheaply made and break all the time, and the replacement parts are ridiculously expensive to get, that insurance companies know they'll lose big if they don't charge a fatter rate. I know how Elon runs his tesla factories.. And you can too if you read the latest book on him. It's no surprise why tesla are so poorly made. Elon makes them cut literally every corner possible to keep costs down.. For better or worse lol
My insurance is less than my m2 and less than the rs3 on the Tesla lol.. and some of my colleagues with Tesla insurance tell me how cheap it is
Model 3 with out speed limiter bruh is another story 😂.
True, however it does start slowing down more up top but not as bad as you may think when it’s close to full charge
Why you racing a family car? Probably has a baby seat in back and a frunk full of groceries. Launch control … lol. What next, an Accord?
Very dumb comment.. We can race whatever we want.. thanks for watching
In my opinion it was an interesting race showing how a very sensible daily car such as the EV can be without missing out on performance and also showing how quick the M2 really is
Just so you know in electric cars the HP is always wheel , only combustion can be crank
Makes sense
