USAA: adding i3 to the policy adds about $500/yr - lower than expected! i3 adds 600, Prius premium drops 100 due to lower mileage expectation Full coverage with higher-than-std limits, 500 ded

Simple and straightforward -- thanks, gang! :D

For the wealth of user-specific settings, the user guide says, "The settings are saved for the remote control currently in use." When we carpool, my partner and I both carry our remotes, which raises the question: which one is considered "in use"? It's straightforward (though inconvenient) to...

Congratulations to Kelly B, who was the recipient of the first delivery in CO Thursday at the launch event. Someone else scored a spec car that night. The GSM checked with BMW Dist to find out why my car (6930) had been delayed 9 weeks while others, with much-higher prod numbers, are being...

Was just at my dealer (Schomp) to check on build status, production # 6930. Had been week 19, now shows week 23 (1st week of June). Am signed up for the Event on 5/8, so I'll at least get to drive it again :D

Thanks for the analysis. Unfortunately, the rear windows are fixed, so no help with ventilation there.

This response would seem to make little sense. The Euro cars have the moonroof available and our cars are being built to spec so...what's the issue??

This topic had some responses over at http://www.mybmwi3.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=467 I'm going BEV because... After driving hybrids for almost 13 years now -- no more ICE!! No: - noise - vibration - gas stops - ICE-related maintenance (so long, oil changes and tuneups) - tailpipe...

Welcome, drew! Here are two links that I found helpful... Internal Revenue Code section 30D; no mention of income caps, but, hey, it's the IRS http://www.irs.gov/Businesses/Plug-In-Electric-Vehicle-Credit-(IRC-30-and-IRC-30D) Plugincars.com gives a good run-down on incentives, including a...

Put down the deposit months ago, actual order was just a couple of weeks ago as soon as they could start taking them.

Just spoke with my dealer. Latest allocation sheet, which just arrived, now shows production of my car is 5 weeks later than when I ordered :-(

As it was explained to me, the week of production is shown on the dealer's allocation sheet. "2014/03/13" means week 13 production.

Mike: care to share your production number?

I expect that the Glendale store would get a healthy allocation. Curious what that number is, "plenty" being 4 of 40 allocated or 10 of 20?

930! :D
