A HUGE Thank You!!! out to everyone in these forums, especially @HN308 who I think recently suggested the 24 month lease option with the Acq. Waiver for another i3 deal. Perhaps it has been mentioned before, but that change made this a pretty nice deal.
I’ve just arrived home with my new 2017 i3 REx. It was a demo with a little under 1400 miles on it. The MSRP was 48445, so it’s about as basic as you can get with a REx. The dealer agreed to a 40K sales price (17% off). I only got the base 7500 rebate - apparently the fleet cash isn’t available on demos (something I read elsewhere on the forum confirmed that). Next time I should have loyalty too, if I go for another BMW.
It was a little under $1500 drive-off and the monthly payment after tax is about $215 and change.
My local electric company is supposed to give a $1000 rebate as well, I believe…
So, not nearly as good as a California or New Jersey deal on an i3, but the best I could find in the southeast. (A dealer in Tennessee)
About the only disappointment is that it doesn’t seem to have a rear view camera… (I just get the rear sensor view when I’m backing up to something)
But, I can’t complain too much. I wanted an electric car, meaning a Bolt, Leaf, or an i3 for a low monthly payment. Bolts and Leafs are kinda crazy now, in terms of leases in my area. Getting the REx was a bonus.
That is a good discount you negotiated. You could have got another 1k in rebate with the OL code which I have put the link to generate. Also on the 17s there should be lease bonus cash of 2k.
Anyways still a pretty good deal. You are paying accord Camry payment for a car twice it’s price.
Enjoy it and next time post your deal before signing on the lease so we can help if you left something on the table.
This was a demo, so OL codes did not apply, I think. But do you know if the St. Moritz OL code ($1000) applies for new 2017 i3’s? Anyone had any luck with this?
