Tempting, I must say.
You'll never get a new EV for $12,500; used ones are way more than that now.

Best price I've seen on the forum after factoring in all the subsidies is $21k, which is still a fantastic price. I'd buy one now if I could pick it up at that price, considering that's what the used ones are going for.

I just don't know much about the I3, but there aren't many other used cars 2010 or newer with under 70k miles under $10k.
Talk to bwilson4web. As far as I know, they're good cars but the tires are a custom size which creates a headache and extra cost. It has active thermal management, so I assume the batteries generally hold up decently.

There's a mod to double the fuel capacity too.
