    Official BMW i3 thread

    Agreed, the heater on our '13 SV was great as well. It seemed to heat up just as quickly as the one in the i3.

    That mirrors my experience with testing the REx. We only ever really considered a BEV, but I was pleasantly surprised by the REx functionality on the demo car we had. The only thing I can figure regarding the album art is that it's something specific to your phone/OS. I verified that all of...

    Right - and you can't even fully disable stability control in the i3 - it's always on. The setting in the menu to turn it "off" only allows some wheelspin in a straight line, under 31mph, for use in snow/winter conditions. Stability control is still active even with that setting enabled. The...

    Wow. Completely incorrect..not just about BMW stability systems, but about most (and presumably all) major manufacturer stability control systems.

    Not that I'm a fan of relying on electronics to help control the car, but that's the situation we're in with any modern car - the stability control in the i3 is designed to handle those situations, including braking wheels individually and (specific to the EV functionality) reducing the regen as...

    The brake pedal didn't go away, you just don't need it under most conditions.

    See this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JXJPf7Lv8Sw" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; They do light up if you lift off the pedal completely at 60mph. There's some highway testing starting around the 5:00 mark. The regen is less aggressive on the i3 at highway speeds, but...

    I'm interested in knowing which ones didn't make a difference, if you're still interested in finding a solution for those items. You manage how fast the car stops with your right foot and the accelerator - this is what they mean by "one pedal driving". If you lift completely off the pedal...

    Wanted to help with some of the cons you listed - hope I'm understanding them correctly: Did you try tilting/telescoping the wheel? I never use those buttons - use the wheel on the right portion of the steering wheel. You'll get a preview of the song/station it's about to choose next on the...

    How to obtain Georgia ZEV certificate to claim 5K Tax Credit

    Can you point to the location in the tax code (or even the link to the Facebook post) where this was stated? Here's a link to the fact sheet for the credit: http://www.georgiaair.org/airpermit/downloads/mobilearea/engines/Alternative%20Fuels/levzevfs.pdf" onclick="window.open(this.href);return...

    How to obtain Georgia ZEV certificate to claim 5K Tax Credit

    You would be able to spread it across up to 5 years, regardless of the length of the lease.

    GA EV tax credit almost repealed. Decision postponed.

    That's what I expect, but we need details on how they're going to track/enforce the limit before we'll really know. Maybe they'll create a pre-purchase registration program that provides a time window to purchase the car and still receive the credit, otherwise your "slot" expires.

    The fiscal year runs July to June - so it should start at 0 credits issued in July.

    GA EV tax credit almost repealed. Decision postponed.

    Thanks, I was wondering if there were any modifications to it that weren't yet reflected in the PDF - sometimes it's delayed by a few days.

    Looks like it passed the senate - anyone have additional info about the version that passed yesterday? http://www.legis.ga.gov/Legislation/en-US/display/20132014/HB/257" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

    GA EV tax credit almost repealed. Decision postponed.

    Thanks, do you have a link to the details of today's meeting? How does the $10M budget work - still a $5K/car credit up to $10M/yr for the total number of credits for the state?

    Leaf brake pad fitment

    I know this is an old topic, but checking to see if you finally nailed a few aggressive pad options/fitments for the Leaf? I typically use Performance Friction or Hawk pads on track.

    Thanks for the replies - I picked one up, just off the truck, at another dealer yesterday. Loving it so far!
