My i3 gets handed over to me this evening (or tomorrow ), and I'm freaking out a little about owning this as my primary car.
I don't commute far, we have a '13 328i we can use for long trips, but moving from a fully loaded '11 550i to this is going to be nail-biting. From a distance perspective, from a luxury perspective, a cargo space perspective, and a being able to punch it while already doing 90mph to get around someone on the freeway perspective.
My car history has been - '91 Acura Integra GS, '92 BMW 325is, '93 BMW M3, '99 BMW M3, '05 MB E500, '08 BMW 650i, '11 BMW 550i. I love driving, but I hate dependency on gas, the wastefulness of it, and I want to be environmentally clean. I've wanted to go electric for a long time, and as a huge BMW fan, I thought this would be the car to make the move with. I hope I don't regret it!
Anyone else here make a similar move?
