Sorry to resurrect and old thread, but funny story: I found this thread because the lease on my 2014 Rex was up so I ordered a 2017 and when I tried to open the frunk this morning nothing happened. Then I got in the car and it said the rear was open. The thing is, I could have sworn I used the...

I am sure I have read several posts saying the one supplied in North America is water proof. I have charged a few times in the rain. Guess I got lucky.

Just out of curiosity, if you think your electric bill will be more than $300, what would your bill have been without charging the car? I remember reading a post somewhere about a woman who moved to California and owned a plug in hybrid. She said that because of low gas prices and high...

It might not be from the software update. Maybe the throttle sensor or something else.

Look for "BMW i Driver's Guide".

I was about to post something similar. It is like buying a computer where you should buy the most you can afford. That way you can go longer before you have to upgrade. Which is what I plan to do as soon as I finish cleaning my garage so the electrician can do his job and I can park inside.

Could it be from charging the low voltage battery?

Mine does too.

If you like that sound you'll really like this video I posted in Off Topic. Also, pay attention to the support vehicles. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jJZS0QhPmhs

I'm more interested in what happens with the wood expanding and contracting with the changing humidity. Although I have a feeling it is a thin veneer of wood, not a thick piece.

I got mine with close to 700 miles on it and I was maybe slightly concerned. On my test drive the sales adviser got me on a stretch of road without any other cars and said "floor it" and then she had me stand on the brakes to demonstrate that with the near 50-50 weight distribution the nose...

According to the description I read you get the bag, the divider, and "genuine" BMW work gloves. My dealership has complimentary car washes and a free cafe. I think I'm going there Saturday morning for a wash, an omelet and pick up a bag. I believe they have it for $103 also. Update: Got it...

I got an email this week from my electricity supplier, Florida Power & Light, saying they are the sponsors for the Formula E race in Miami on March 14th. In that email was a contest for customers to register to win four tickets to the race. I decided not to enter because I would have to get...

Get one of those bars with hooks on both ends for attaching to the coat hooks.

It is just the nature of wood to age. The only way to keep it from aging is to keep it out of UV light, which is hard to do with the dash of a car. I tried to look up whether the wood should get lighter or darker, but BMW does not say which species of Eucalyptus they use.

I have only had mine for three weeks, but I already hate when I anticipate wrong and I have to use the brakes to stop.

Tom has a picture of his after being exposed to salt and what not on his blog. It really makes a bag look like a good idea.

I'll worry about it in two years. And I have REx so there are oil changes.

I am in my first lease ever and I have a question. I leased an i3 REx and after a few week I still love it. My question is: if I buy it at the end of the lease, how much of the warranty transfers? Meaning, does it suddenly become a used car? Also, since it is a lease won't I technically be...

Darn. I'm a lease newbie too. I was hoping that I would be able to buy the car at the end of the lease for a lower price without having to negotiate. Assuming that the i3 depreciates faster than BMW Financial thinks it will. This is also my first BMW so I do not know how well they hold their...
