Same with a modern 3 series - plenty of hard plastic, whereas I don't see any hard plastic in my 3P. And like I've said earlier, even the fiercest Tesla critics (Lutz for example) have praised the model gaps on the 3. Most of this is just lack of awareness on part of the general public.

I saw that picture of the model 3 motors with a million miles on it, and they looked brand new. My E90 started giving problems at under 100K miles, same with my E39. Enough said.
