Hey everyone, new here and here's my i3. Picked it up in June under the Employee Lease Specials which we had at my dealership. It almost didn't make sense to walk away from the deal, my payments are $147/mo with $0 down and taxes paid up front. The payments are less than I was paying monthly, weekly even, commuting to and from work in my Mustang, so I'm pretty happy with my decision.
Anyhow, I leased mine in Arrivani Gray, my second color choice behind Solar Orange, which we didn't have in stock. It has the Giga world and is essentially fully loaded minus Harmon Kardon, which I do wish it has, though my Mustang has premium sound so I'll have to live with only one car with the premium sound. Stock is alright but I'd prefer Harmon Kardon, maybe in my next BMW.
All I've done to my i3 since picking it up is 20% tint on all of the windows, which looks better (in my opinion) and helps the AC not work as hard to cool the car down on those hot NY days. Glad to be part of the forum and share my experience with this car. After this, I'm not sure I would go back to a traditional vehicle as my daily driver with how much money this car has saved me per month on fuel costs, that, and my neighbors are much happier when I leave with this car in the morning versus the noisy Mustang at 8am.
