    Buy a car with AWD that can put the power down, assuming you want a car with big torque.

    A properly setup e36 can do the same.

    Maybe next time you'll start with a car less mint that way you will not fear cutting your fenders.

    Here is a pic of a friends car. 275's up front, and 305's out back.

    Congrats on your Nikola.
    A few important Tesla quotes, before you go.



    Our virtues and our failings are inseparable, like force and matter. When they separate, man is no more.





    The scientists of today think deeply instead of clearly. One must be sane to think clearly, but one can think deeply and be quite insane.




    The present is theirs; the future, for which I really worked, is mine.




    I do not think you can name many great inventions that have been made by married men.




    The spread of civilisation may be likened to a fire; first, a feeble spark, next a flickering flame, then a mighty blaze, ever increasing in speed and power.




    The day science begins to study non-physical phenomena, it will make more progress in one decade than in all the previous centuries of its existence.

    E36 M3 Turbo, 2015 GTI,
    Congrats on the Tesla Order man! I have been financing a lot of them lately here at the bank. Talk about polar opposites, one M5 V10 and a Tesla.

    Yes, complete opposite, but yet both have the same 280 mile range with a full tank/charge .
    I took my wife for a test drive at the local Tesla dealership and she loved it, she wants one as well... she gave me no option top one line and bottom one hers

    If I could afford a new tesla p100d, I would buy a used 991.1TT PDK. Hopefully soon but might have to settle for a 997.2TT PDK. Big question is whether I keep the turbo e36m3. Not enjoying the work as much these days.
