AC compressor failed, and the repair bill is an estimated $13.5k. This car drives great, battery is in an above average state according to BMW and just had the small battery replaced. APU runs great. Tires are worn and the headliner is coming down. Tampa Bay area, anyone interested? Looking for an offer. Black and White model.
 
Current bid is $750.- Anybody offering more for a nice 2015 I3 rex, 63k miles? No damage. It seems to me that the battery-pack alone would be worth more.

I don't need more i3s, and you are really far, but I hereby double that offer! I have 2 i3 on the road, and 2 wrecked 2018s that have all the parts to replace the entire AC system. I bought them for the HV batteries to provide upgrades to those older i3 that need more range. I am in Baltimore MD
 
Where are you at? Still for sale? I'll buy it for 2k if you're not super far away from me? I'm in the south east USA.

EDIT: I'm an idiot, I see tampa FL.
 
Update: I flew down to Florida and bought this car. It was nice shape and drivable. I ran in on the rex to put less heat into the HV battery. Drove it 200 miles in heat as high as 100degrees. battery temp slowly rose as I drove, and did not go down noticeably when I parked for 2 hours. Drove it as eco as I could and got 50mpg on gas/6.5 miles per Kwh. (flat florida!) Battery got up to around 40c and power bars started disappearing a few at a time, but I was driving it so gently, I didn't need many. Got it on the Amtrak Autotrain in Sanford FL and arrived in VA the next day. Battery had cooled overnight to 32c, and had no trouble driving the last 70 miles home.
