The interior is only okay with materials, there are some obvious hard plastics, and space is tight despite being mid-sized (a model 3 is larger inside and for cargo), and the tech is clumsy at best. My biggest issue is price, I drove a $160k car and didn't feel satisfied, my sales advisor even said "this one is lightly optioned." There is no way in hell I'd spend $160k on a Porsche that doesn't have an engine at the back or middle, 911, 718, and even used GT3/4's can be had at this price point, or even better, a Model 3 AND a 718 GTS 4.0/Used GT4, that way you can have your cake and eat it too, a great electric daily and fun weekend sports car.
