Hello everyone, long time BMW owner, but i3 newbie.
I've been lurking and researching the i3 for quite some time now. Finally pulled the trigger on a 2014 i3 BEV model with all the options yesterday and picking it up on Tuesday. I only needed a 10 min 'test drive' and fell in love with it immediately. I live 2.2km from work so this seemed to be a no-brainer considering my fiance drives a 3 Series xDrive wagon that I can use for longer trips.
First order of business is coding. I've coded E90's in the past using a VM setup on my Mac so I shouldn't have too much trouble using the BimmerCode app and Bluetooth dongle. Looks like there are quite a few 'options' I can enable.
Availability and pricing here in Ontario, Canada is not as good as the USA so I had to wait awhile and then 'pounce'. I was lucky enough to get it from a BMW dealer so fingers crossed it works out.
Anyway, just wanted to drop a note and say HI. I used to be very active when the E90 came out on E90post dot com so let's see what happens here. Tuesday can not come quick enough. lol.
