and before mentioning what rebates you qualify for.

Pro tip: invest in one high quality stroller that is expandable (if having more kids). Our Uppa Baby Vista lasted us 5+ years and we just passed it on to friends.

Glad the Forester will work for ya!

Good luck getting that rear-facing child seat in a Forester and having someone sit in the front passenger seat...unless you and your wife are both hobbits.

Panda or Storm Trooper in i3 circles. Too bad you don’t like black. You have been able to get fluid black (all black) i3s for the last couple model years.

Keep fighting the good fight sir. I think that was the longest kinja post/response I’ve read.

but a least offer a trim package that makes it look like a normal car so that someone who has a corporate job and just wants a nice electric commuter but still wants to blend in can buy it.

Oh, we’re getting technical are we?

still not technically a hybrid. the gas motor is a generator used to charge the batteries in order to maintain a certain state of charge (soc). Laughably, due to CARB regs the US version of the REx only kicks in when batteries get down to 6%.

Definitely difficult to search for Rex. Even BMW’s website for searching CPO’s is not user friendly. It becomes even more challenging when used car dealers list them and don’t know about the car and/or features, etc.

That’s a stripper. Guaranteed it has the small infotainment screen. That screen is a total abomination. Plastic bezel for days. Basic NAV, no park assist, back up cam, adaptive cruise etc. And the pizza wheels.

Not talking about my scenario. I’m talking about new BMW i3 leases. Leasees are getting the $7500 in lease incentive cap cost reduction.

BMW takes the tax write-off and gives you the full $7500 as a lease incentive.  

Where are you seeing that? I got a ‘14 REx with 20k, loaded with all options other than the harmon kardon for $18.5k in September in the Seattle area. That was by far the lowest price I found over the course of a 2ish month search. Beat the local BMW stores by $4k+.

My ‘14 BMW i3 REx gets about 25 miles less range in the cold PNW winter...<40 degrees F. I can only imagine it would be worse in other locations where it is closer to or below zero F.

I need to know. What was the offer you took? I’m assuming you did not plan on this job being “long term.” aka over 4 years.

Feeling good about my Amazon Treasure Truck purchase the other day. They had the color bulb starter 4 pack for $99. I didn’t need the bridge but $25 a bulb was too good to pass up!

It will be interesting to see if Volvo is willing to negotiate a lease on this particular vehicle outside of the new program.

Dood! You can’t quote that as your reference. 1. Age 2. That was a unique deal...not the norm.
