Thanks for all the replies. It is good to hear that the reliability has been steadily improving for the i3. Here is an update on things - it looks like I might not be getting the i3 after all. There have been several red flags for me that have made me conclude that maybe I should hold off...

Good to hear. I'm hoping for the same experience! I can only think of 5 or 6 times in the last year that I would have needed to use a quick charger if I had had the i3. Most of my driving is local (my wife and I will still have a gas car as well). That infristructure is quite limited. In...

My closest dealership that is certified is 5 hours away, the closest dealership to me that will be certified by the end of the year is 1 hour away. As long as all I have to deal with is regular maintenance/minor issues this would not be a problem for me. If it had major mechanical issues it...

I have been wanting to get an i3 for a long time, and I found a good deal on a 2017 Rex. I did some checking today and the closest dealership that is certified to service the i3 is 5 hours away! I did a little more research and calling and found out that my local dealership is working towards...
