Have the i3 REX and love it, had it a week now and the only frustrating thing I've found is what a pain public charging can be. I activated the chargenow cards that came with the car and use the app for my iPhone along with what the car nav system reports to locate local charging stations. For whatever reason Chargenow lists stations in private car parks that the public can't access as well as out of network charging stations, discovered a station near my office in SF that uses its own RFID cards so couldn't use it, also found a fast charger near me as I have that connector on the i3 only to discover it was NRG another RFID account and the fast charge connector is unique to the leaf.
Hopefully public charging gets easier and not carrying multiple accounts and car manufacturers stop opting for proprietary connectors as this only slows down adoption, anyone found anything better than chargenow or is that the biggest network currently?
Cheers,
Stuart
