Used BMW i3 for Sale in Los Angeles, CA

Zach and Jarod are the dream team! They were very kind and professional through the whole process of helping me purchase a new 2019 X5. Zach took my order for the X5 two months before it was released and it arrived 30 days before expected. I was so excited! Zach handled a lot of the paper work be I arrived at the dealership and what was left was speaking with Jarod in finance. Jarod was also extremely helpful in explaining all my options but allowed me to choose what was best. Best sales and finance experience of all time. I???ve been driving a BMW since 2005. Owned one, and leased three from other dealerships and didn???t have a good experience each time. This was my first visit to Century BMW West and I met Zach. This will be the beginning of a long term relationship with Zach, Jarod, and Century BMW. Thank you dream team, you guys are the best!!!

The best car around the town. The best thing no gas! Save a lot of money! I love it! I really enjoy this car a lot.

This was one of the easiest and most enjoyable car purchases I have ever made. I found the car I liked on Century West???s website and contacted them for more information. My salesperson, Mark King, checked on the vehicle and set up a time for me to come see it. He followed up with me regularly by text, and he had the car waiting for a test drive when I arrived. After we drove the car, it took only about 30 minutes to finalize price, set up the financing, and sign the paperwork. Thanks Mark and Century West BMW!

The i3 is an excellent city car for running errands and commuting. It is very fun to drive being faster and more maneuverable then most every other car on the road.

Met my expectations, I suggest you find one that has been well maintained. Fun to drive and practical! Also saved me a lot of money on gas.

This being online only,i was a bit wary, but they ave a huge inventry and great prices. i did't feel like haggling with a typical dealer, so decided to do it from my couch. I had a wonderful experience! Every person I spoke with emailed or chatted with was extremely informed and provided precise info and/or was very fast to pass me along to the most appropriate person to answer. The speed of follow-up was refreshing. I asked Alfonso and Alex to go above & beyond the norm. doing investigative work trying to dig up Jeep modification information from prior dealer that I needed for qualifying the extended warranty. I would (and have) raved about my experience and would gladly recommend VROOM. They managed to bring the often lost human factor into the indifferent world of online shopping while maintaining the efficiency!

It is the best electric vehicle on the road. Alloy frame, carbon fiber body, 20 inch Ecco tires, and a range extender for the battery puts the I3 in a class of its own. The vehicle is fast, nimble, and a joy to drive. The perfect city vehicle.

My old car was my third minivan in 15 years. Now that my kids are older and leaving for college, I wanted something that could carry 6 or 7 passengers but was ... well... NOT a minivan. I did some research on late model used three-row SUVs, and found the 2017 Nissan Pathfinder. (My favorite of my three vans was a 2005 Nissan Quest, so choosing Nissan was easy for me.) Before I started browsing for cars, I applied for credit through Carvana, and was approved. Next, I entered in all of the information about the van I was trading for the Pathfinder. (Beware -- the trade-in amount is only good for 7 days, and it can change wildly in that time!) I was pleased with the trade amount, and it was great that I could shop for my new car and see my down payment and monthly payment for every car I viewed! My specifications were pretty clear -- AWD, less than 10,000 miles, and never a rental car. I found my dream car a few days later, and started the purchase process. It was quite smooth and the directions were very clear about what documents need to be uploaded. When I went to click on "finalize purchase" (or something like that), a red flag popped up...my trade-in value expired WHILE I WAS IN THE PROCESS OF CHECKING OUT! I got on chat with Carvana staff right away, and they were able to return the trade in value to NEARLY what it was before the expiration. This is something that needs to be addressed by Carvana -- once a customer is to a certain point in the process, those numbers need to be frozen. So we set a delivery time, and the Carvana rep was pretty much on time considering he was traveling 70 miles or so from the Chicago office. Everything was smooth -- signed a couple more papers, took my Pathfinder for a spin, Eric inspected my trade, and I left within 30 minutes with my new car. I would also like to add that I drove directly to my mechanic, so he could inspect the car and make sure I wasn't buying something with hidden damage. Mechanic said to me, "This car is perfect, like new." Just what I wanted to hear. Thanks Carvana! I am telling everyone I know about you guys. Good to work with you! Janet - 2017 Nissan Pathfinder

I was stunned by the incredible acceleration and responsiveness of the electric vehicle. Gas vehicles can't measure up to that. Very comfortable ride. Good sound system. Adequate power plus.

This is a review of my SELLING experience to Carvana. I listed my car on Craigslist and was approached by an outsider buyer named Jan. She introduced me to Carvana, which I never heard of before, and it's process. She was very helpful and walked me through the process. The first deciding factor for selling to them was that they offered me the best price (vs. CarMax, Auto Nation, Trur Car). Then I realized the process was super streamlined. All I had to do was upload my documents and, after approval, schedule an appointment for the pickup of my car. Carvana sent a truck to COME TO ME to pick up the car. The driver (Lauren?) was very courteous and pleasant to work with, too. The pickup process, which included a one-mile test drive, took no longer than 20-30 minutes. Immediately after loading my car to their truck, I was handed the check, which I immediately deposited without any issues. My selling experience from being contacted by buyer to getting the check took just 10 days! (Would've been even faster if I was more timely with uploading my docs.) I'd highly recommend Carvana for selling your cars!

We are in the midst of the early evolution of the modern electric vehicle. Efficiency and long range is the goal. The BMW i3 is an experiment and we owners get to be part of that evolution. The ICE has had its day and will continue for a while longer.

Buying through Carvana was one of the best transactional experiences ever! I shopped for several months, test drove several cars to understand the models and features I was looking for. Then, boom, the car that matched come up in my search and I pulled the trigger. Within minutes, I had a value on my trade-in, purchased the car, (to include a very well priced extended warranty), and arranged for financing it through the Carvana website. And, while that was a very easy, non pressure experience, what made it really special was the delivery. Rachel, the Caravan rep, called me the day before the delivery to confirm, then called while in route to be sure not to leave me hanging. She was right on time, professional, and extremely upbeat. I had a genuine feeling that her priority was not only to deliver the car and pick up my trade in, but it was to make the final part of my experience a pleasure as well. Rachel was extremely knowledgeable of the process and did an excellent job of assuring I was informed of the "7 day, no questions asked, test drive" as well as the final paperwork to be processed. A few signatures and the trade-in was her's and the keys to 2014 BMW 535 were in my hands.

The i3 is a fantastic full electric car. It rides superb and has a sporty attitude as expected by a BMW product. Styling is unusual and kind of ahead of its time (German engineers on LCD...) but very pleasing IMO. The only drawback is its performance in lower temperature (under 0C). Cold temperature really affect these BMW batteries compared to other type.

This car is perfect for a daily commuter. It is easy to drive and great plenty of range so you only need top charge in infrequently. If you want to push it, it's very quick and handles well. The range extender option gives great piece of mind in case you can't get to a charger. The styling makes the car look space age, both inside and out. The interior is very roomy, even fitted someone tall. Visibility is great due to the tall seating position and large windows. Overall, love the car.

We are overall happy with our experience. My wife and I saw this vehicle on craigslist and called to see if it was still available. I spoke with a salesperson and we talked about how I was coming from Bakersfield and how I may not be able to go to the dealership until the weekend. Through out the week I got a few calls back from them to ask if I was coming to see it today- at this point I was kinda worried that this might be a high pressure low class dealership... but since it was a good price for the vehicle I was looking for we decided to give it a shot. After fighting L.A. traffic for 2 hours we got to the dealership and thought NO FREAKIN WAY! it was small, lack luster, and with all the traffic difficult to turn into, But hey we came all this way so there is no turning back now. I soon as we parked and took in the available vehicles our doubts began to fade away. This dealership had a great selection of clean quality vehicles, from luxury SUV to sports cars to economical sedans. It took us a minute to find the salesperson we spoke with over the phone mostly because we could not see the sales office from where we parked, but after we did it was nothing but friendly, courteous, professional treatment. Our sales person Danny was awesome. We had already been to a few other dealerships closer to home that day and the way Danny treated us and his knowledge of the vehicle and the way Car Star conducts business was head and shoulders above any other used car dealership we visited in the past month or so. After meeting our salesperson and being briefed on how Car Star selects which vehicles they sell and how they test and verify every switch, button, nook and cranny before it is put out on the sales lot all doubts and reservations about the dealership was gone. Do not judge this book by its cover what the location lacks in luxury or curb appeal it makes up for in selection, value, and most of all customer service. Yes we would recommend this dealership to friends and family because its worth the drive. Now you may be asking why did we leave 4 stars in overall rather then 5? well it wasn't the biggest deal nor was it a deal breaker but we believe in being honest- we did not enjoy our interaction with the finance person. Not sure if its just his personality or the fact that we opted-out of the extended warranty that he offered, but he didn't exactly make me or my wife feel real comfortable, again not sure what it was but there was just something about the way he talked to us.... Just saying... other then that if this place has a vehicle your interested in, for sure check it out!

Got a great deal on an EV that’s a blast to drive. I’ve already highly recommended this model to friends and family. Large windows provide great visibility.

Great car that has everything you would want in a BMW with the perks of an Electric Vehicle. And it is actually affordable. I haven't paid for gas in a year!

I had a good experience having my car repaired at Range Rover Encino. My air conditioner pump had gone out and the dealership repair where I had leased my car could not get me in for an appointment for two weeks. Armando at Range Rover Encino got me in the next day and worked quickly to solve the problem. Five stars for all, except the part was on back-order and took a few days to receive so I'd give that a 4 star. They were able to provide me with a loaner car in the meantime at no extra charge. I will use Range Rover Encino for all my car repairs moving forward.

We weren't so sure about buying an i3 without the Range Extender, but we took the plunge in part because this used one had the Tera World upholstery. In reading other reviews, most folks say they never use the REX anyway. The fact that our next scheduled service is fully 18 MONTHS from now reinforced that this is a good way to go. We've already put a few hundred miles on it. Whenever it's in the garage it's on the charger, but we drive past every gas station without even noticing the prices! The interior is super cool. We LOVE the wood accented dash and the very large nav screen. The fact that it parks itself, and will fit ANYWHERE is icing on the cake! And, that's before considering the 33' turning circle. I actually made a u-turn on a two lane residential street without backing up! It's small, for sure. But, that's what you want in a City Car. No gas, no exhaust, can park it anywhere, luxury appointments, 0-60 in 6.6 seconds... What more do you want?!

I took my car for service and I love the attention they provide.

This car is perfect for the right person with the correct expectations. The car is the REX model ( has an electric gas generator) and in combination provides a minimum of 200 miles of range. Thats driving the car without any limitations or trying to be efficient. If tou drive it in the economy or economi+ setting then you can get 250 miles combined. The car is very light weight and small, so very easy to park, but it fits 4 adults confortable without any issues with olenty of head room and leg room ( I am 6 foots tall and i can get behind my sitting position comfortably) I have the car for a month now, so I can talk about reliability, but I haven put a single drop off gas on the tank since I got it, my commute every day is at least 50 miles, and I charge my car every other day for free at work. In my case this is an advantage but for other people they are several free stations that once you install the app can have access to it. Power is adequate for the size of the car. All and all is a great buy, specially that I got it used with only 8k miles on it and a incredible price. Just with the savings on gas the car will py for itself.

I would consider myself to be a car enthusiast. My last car was an E90 BMW 328i. Last year I test drove two EVs - the Tesla Model 3 and the BMW i3. I came away so disoriented by the immediate torque/acceleration and the sheer quietness as it was doing so. I was sold on EVs being fun. Then came the cost question. Tesla model 3 doesn’t have much of a used car market yet as it is so new, but the i3 does. As I dug in I realized a 3-4 year old i3 was being sold for about 30% of its sticker price with lowish mileage (20k-50k miles) - I started digging some more. On average, I was spending about $250/month on gas and after doing some calculations on my commute and monthly car use, I realized I would be spending about $20/month if I charged the car at home. Done - Started the search for an i3 and found one about 70 miles from my house. I traded my 3series for the i3. I’m so glad I did. You can find all the specs on the car so I won’t bore you with that, but this is such an amazing value of a car. The practical hatchback design makes it easy for loading things in and out. The range is enough for my commute and we just use my wife’s car if we need to road trip somewhere. The term range anxiety does exist but I would rather call it range awareness. Driving an EV is a lifestyle change and makes you approach your use of a car differently. Some see that as a bad thing - I just see it as an opportunity to use your brain :-). I know when most people think of a used BMW, they think it’s unreliable. Mechanically, these cars are SO simple and the things that typically go wrong in BMWs (gaskets, coil packs, spark plugs, turbos, water pumps, etc.), aren’t present in this car. Sure the EV infrastructure is lagging in the US, but with a little planning and the use of the PlugShare app, you can find somewhere around you to charge in a pinch. If you’re reading this, you are probably a bit like me - a car junky that likes to understand the good and the bad about a car before you take the leap. I would encourage you - DO IT!

I was in the market for a used 328i and did extensive research on different cars, dealerships, and sales staff. Of all the people contacted, Elvis Blohm was far and away the best I dealt with. From my first contact via email through multiple phone calls, he was professional, honest, and above-board. He did not pressure me, just answered each question I had and allowed me time to decide. When time came for talking price, his first number was not unreasonable, the complete opposite! After finalizing the price over the phone, we arranged a time to meet. After driving over 90 minutes from Thousand Oaks, Elvis had us in and out in a little over an hour. Great experience! We also had the pleasure of working with Sean Wang in Finance. He was well-organized and factually presented information. There was no typical "finance games", just signing the paperwork and short explanations of options. Also, working with Elvis, they did a fantastic job working through the BMW Financial red-tape to ensure I received a rebate offer I was entitled to (but was being denied by BMW FS). Overall, a very pleasurable experience working with Elvis and Sean. As far as the dealership, it was clean, well-organized, and fully staffed. Everyone I came into contact with was happy and willing to provide assistance.

I have full electric one. Always worry about run out of juice. Maybe there is a way the have extra battery in the front without that range extender, but extra 15miles for my commute. Otherwise it's perfect. Comfortable.

Very fun to drive and economical. Just plug it in and is ready to go the next time it is needed. We have the Range Extender model and it take away and anxiety when using it for going further distances then our typically daily running for errands.

I bought about 5 cars over the past 10 years and no problem with them.once in a while some minor issues but they were open about it and fix. It Ken helped a lot as always. I recommend this place to everybody

My number came up to order a Tesla Model 3, so I tracked one down (not easy) to test drive. It was a good car with lots of bells and whistles, but it paled in comparison to the e-car I used to drive, a BMW i3 (lease ended). Because of that, I gave up my place in the Tesla line and went back to an i3. I could not be happier. True, the range does not compare, but the drive and the ride is so superior I figured I'd get a used i3 and trade it in on a new one when the range improves significantly. I got a great price and excellent service at BMW of San Francisco (I live in Monterey) and recommend them as highly as the i3.

Very nice and informative. Didn't try to upsale or add on any extras. Quick process to buy a beautiful clean upscale car. They were very eager to please! I am so happy and excited about my X3 and it was in excellent condition when we went to purchase! :)

The i3 is the best car I’ve owned for my type of use. My only wish would be for longer range on battery but frankly I rarely use the Rex so this is a small complaint for me.

This is the quietest and smoothest car I've owned. Was looking for an all-electric. Had planned on buying a Tesla but wanted something smaller. The i3 accelerates quickly and is zippy around town. It's great to have full access to the HOV lane and to skip the trips to the gas station. I installed a Level 2 charger at my house (bought the Bosch unit from Amazon). It's pricey for its size but we are satisfied. Highly recommended.

I had the car salesman Anthony, he was LIT. He was a phenomenal person and totally deserves a raise. He made the car buying experience nice because his jokes kept me entertained. Dear Jorge, this young man is a GREAT person and salesman!

I love every bit of this car. I have the level 2 home charger which makes owning this car much better. No range anxiety at all because the car regenerates about 20-30 miles if driven correctly. Just don’t drive like a maniac. If you use the car for how it’s intended, it’s amazing. City car, don’t use freeway and high speeds with AC kill range. However even living in AZ and running the AC, I’m still good on range because of the home charger. It’s a must. WKe up every day to 120-150 Miles to drive. After a while the car configured how much range your car will get based on how you drive with the regenerative Miles added to it. Fast, fun, comfy and roomy. At the same time small to park anywhere! Love this car!!!
