I'm the second owner of this BMW i3. It's an amazing city car, with the option to extend its range using gas for extra long days or road trips. This car is fast, and the small size makes it easy to bop around town. A surprisingly tight turning radius makes it easy to maneuver and do U-turns whenever necessary. Quiet driving, snappy, responsive, and efficient electric motor. The car has been "coded" to give extra gas tank capacity and the ability to "hold state of charge" sooner (if you don't know what this is, look it up as you'll love it). This coding it gives more options for the driver. This particular car is loaded with tech and luxury features like an upgraded Harman/Kardon speakers.
Kelley Blue Book Says the car is worth $7,322 (between $5,393 and $9,250). That estimate is not including the extra winter wheels and the Weathertech floormats. Listed price of $5,600 is a great deal and assumes you qualify for the EV rebate and purchase via Keysavvy, otherwise I hope to get on the upper end of the KBB price range of $8,000.
With the Range Extender model, you can get about 80 miles of additional range just by filling the gas tank with about 2 gallons. The i3 is one of the most efficient in electric battery consumption ever made. It charges at a DC fast-charger to 80% full in 30 minutes, or you can charge it full overnight on a regular house outlet (OEM basic charging cable is included).
Comes with two sets of wheels, which is quite rare and perfect for Colorado. One set of wheels is for summer: 20-inch wheels Bridgestone Ecopia EP 500 tire and they have about 7/32 of tread left. The winter set is a 19 inch wheel with 155/70R19 Bridgestone Blizzak LM500. The winter tires make it much safer and a full year-round vehicle, even though it is a rear-wheel-drive car. The summer tires are on the car currently.
It has 4 seats with plenty of headroom, but the legroom in the back is limited. The rear seats fold down flat to create a surprisingly big storage area. The rear doors are hinged in the rear making it easier to get in and out or load things.
This car has a 1.25-inch trailer hitch, which is suitable for small accessories like a 2 bike rack.

Owners of this car are a passionate bunch who love its quirky features. We're selling this car because our family has grown, and we no longer all fit in this BMW.
What problems are there:
The front seats are manually adjustable - I guess making them electric would have used too much power? :)
The rear seats have a few stains in the fabric.
The drivers seat leather is worn.
The wheels for the winter have a little "curb rash" from the previous owner.
There are some scuffs in the paint, though only a reasonable amount given the age and mileage.
It has bluetooth connection for stereo, but does not include "Android Auto" nor "Apple Carplay"
The winter tires have 2 with OK tread, but 2 should be replaced.
