Thank you vigil1221. I use the blue cover. I may try reversing it as you suggest. I've only had the window issue happen once.

Does anyone know if this option can be coded? I too would like to eliminate the windows down from a long unlock key press option.

They didn't tell me that! I got it fixed a few days ago without incident though.

Two weeks of ownership and I already have the honor of being initiated in to this august club! Hopefully additional or annual dues are not required.

I just had Rial wheels with winter tires installed on my 2014 Rex. From a short distance the black rims look pretty good on my Solar Orange Rex. Up close, less so. In my opinion, the i3's brake/rotor assembly (whatever one calls all that "stuff") is rather unattractive compared to other...

I just got a CPO 2014 Rex last week. Regen on snow/ice has me a bit worried too. Feels a bit odd to order snow tires when tomorrow's forecast is in the 60's (Washington DC area)! Figured I'd bite the bullet now though and get new rims and snow tires. We may not get a ton of snow here, but the...

It isn't foolproof no, but it was very useful for eliminating Mega & Giga (I wanted Terra) by looking at just one picture without opening up the full add. It is certainly possible that someone could put Mega or Giga wheels on Terra, but from the vehicles with Mega or Giga wheels that I did look...

Good luck with the ChargeNow. I just signed the paperwork on a 2014 Rex yesterday. The dealer said that I'd get a card with the car. The car is in Boston so I'll have to wait for it to be shipped down to the DC area. The building I work in has EVGgo chargers so I hope to take advantage of them.

I forgot about the VW I.D.! With that hatch, it is more appealing to me than the Model 3. I really like their microbus concept. Bigger than I need, but if they ever end up releasing something similar to the concept I'll be tempted. I ran some rough numbers and it looks like leasing will cost me...

Ditto. I won't keep the i3 more than a year beyond the expiration the CPO warranty. Also for me the i3 is a stop gap measure. What I really want is a small to midsize AWD SUV with an electric range of over 200 miles. The only option right now is the Model X which is too large and too...

I don't have anything to go by, but I think $12,000 may be optimistic. I'm purchasing a fully loaded 2014 Rex and I think I'd be pleased to get 12K for it in 3 years. In a few years there will be the Model 3, the Bolt, and probably an additional two, three, or more vehicles at the "lower" end of...

Thanks for the input everyone. I've decided to skip the service plan. Now I'm waiting on the paperwork to arrive so I can officially complete my purchase.

Welcome Ari3! Were you able to sign up for the free ChargeNow EVgo plan? I read an article indicating that CPO i3s are eligible for the plan.

I've been using: Wheels to identify which world package. Gas door on the front to identify the Rex. Speakers on the A pillars or in the rear doors to identify Harman audio. Full wide screen on the nav without the ugly bezel and tiny screen to identify the Tech Package. Looking for the park...

I'm not sure if we are all discussing the same thing. Earlier in the thread we were discussing service, so brakes, oil changes (Rex), fluids, and such. Your motor mount bolt was hopefully replaced under warranty. You bring up a very good point about what will these cars be worth in 2019. I...
