Re: New i3S Rex available in SW Ohio

The car has been de-contented since the early years to save money. The standard radio in my new i3 no longer receives FM HD stations, for example. That’s odd.

Life is too short to worry about minor trivialities. The i3 is still a great car to own and enjoy.

Re: Decent Spare Wheel Rec

According to the info in the eBay ad, it appears that tire is 11 years old. It may or may not be safe to use on your i3. You can buy a new Continental compact tire from Tire Rack.
