    Navigation data update 2015-2

    What is the story with updating the navigation system? I have the Technology & Driving Assistant Package, so I have the professional navigation system. I bought the car 3 weeks ago, and it came with map version 2015-1 and my client advisor gave me a code to activate it and it works fine. I...

    My Owner's Choice deal in Houston, TX

    I found it very helpful to read what deals others were getting, so here's the deal I got when I bought my 2014 i3 BEV from a Houston, TX dealer on February 21, 2015: Owner's Choice 24 months / 10,000 miles per year 2.99% APR MSRP: $51,650 Dealer discount: $7,370 (14.27% off) USAA discount...

    Bigger EVSE than needed (HCS-60), or just right (HCS-40)?

    Time to think about which EVSE to buy for home. Electrician comes next week to give me an installation estimate. It'll be in the attached garage, right next to the circuit breaker panel, in a home less than 10 years old, so I imagine installation will be easy. Should I get an EVSE just the...

    Do not turn off engine, engine restart will not be possible.

    My new 2014 i3 BEV says: "Do not turn off engine, engine restart will not be possible. Consult nearest service center." Car is in park; I cannot shift into drive (or anything else). Any ideas?

    Range: Can I make it 80 miles? What about 89?

    The i3 that I want is at a dealer in another city a couple hours away. I don't want to pay to transport it; I'd rather take the opportunity to enjoy a road trip and get familiar with it on the drive home. It's a BEV, not a REx, so I'll need to charge on the way back. On the most direct route...

    OwnersChoice APR

    What should be the APR for OwnersChoice? What APR are you paying with OwnersChoice? I asked my dealer about the 2.99% APR financing offer listed on the BMW i3 special offers web site. My dealer said the 2.99% APR only applies to financing; 3.99% applies to OwnersChoice. And here I thought...

    Record camera video

    With the Technology and Driving Assistant package the i3 comes with a front-facing camera, and with the Parking Assistant package it comes with a rear-facing camera. Can video from these cameras be recorded and saved, e.g. for the purpose of having evidence in the case of an accident?

    Would you buy a demo car?

    After initially giving me a crappy offer, a dealer I'm working with said they could give me a better deal on another i3 which had been used as a demo car. I'm trying to get clarification on what exactly that means. According to the VIN it's less than 3 months old. Would you buy a demo car? What...
