What would you do?

Very close to pulling the trigger on a CPO 2015 i3 BEV with 13k miles. In the low 20s. The car is fully loaded with Tera world. One car fax owner (returned lease).

Title issued in late 2015 so still more than two years left on original warranty plus additional two years for CPO.

Is that too high of a price? I'd rather own than lease and am hopeful that down the line that a battery upgrade will be available. Even if that's a long way off, my daily commute can still handle the range even with some battery depreciation.

Curious to hear thoughts...

Stevencreek BMW has a ton of used i3’s. Saw them a couple of weeks ago. Comparison shop.

Go to a site like truecar or edmunds, etc and see what the CPO value is. Use that for negotiation. Dealers typically have some wiggle room in their asking price.
