Used BMW i3 for Sale in Torrance, CA

Jenna is my new service advisor. This was my first time at this dealership and I will now be servicing both M-class and new C - class at this location with Jenna! She’s helpful, professional and made my experience so easy.She’s great and has won me over as a customer! Thank you Jenna.

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.

This dealer is one of the great one you will neer regret it, i was lookingbat the cars and they are very worthed it you should try it out

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'm a BMW fanatic...I've owned multiple M package cars and currently own an M4. One of the main reasons I go to this dealer is my service adviser DAN! He is super knowledgeable, and provides outstanding service every time i go there. He took care of my car issues and i'm very satisfied. Thanks DAN!

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.

Really had a good experience with my salesperson. Polite, efficient, not too pushy, and respectful of what my needs were. Dramatically different than other places I’ve gone around LA; in a good way.

you either love it or hate it (it definitely grew on me) but inside and out an amazing technological marvel and definitely a BMW. Great car!

Do you want to know what is a great service? Go to LONG BEACH BMW, Great service ( Scott Zamorano ) the mechanics on the shop are top of the line, i’ve visited the dealer a couple of times, i have no complaint about anything, not even the price, ( sometimes you take your car to “cheap” shops,) but i found out that most of the time it is way more cheaper to take the car to Long Beach BMW, i end up paying way more when i take my car to places where they practice mechanics with it, don’t take the risk, go for the best, LONG BEACH BMW. Thank you guys.

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.

Outstanding experience from the initial phone call, to the front door greeting and every encounter throughout. The employees and staff were welcoming, friendly, informative and competent. We are from the SF Bay Area. We had a flat en route to a cruise departing from Long Beach. We called the 800# and were assured the 'run flat' tire would make it to the cruise port in Long Beach in time. It did. Once we returned from the cruise we called BMW roadside assistance who directed us to BMW Long Beach and these guys and gals were incredible. My wife and I would like to give special kudos to Sovann (who took our phone call and provided service above the call of duty) and Brian Woolverton, who walked us through every stage of the process with professionalism, personality, and compassion. In fact, we encountered about 7 seven employees that day and each of them were as warm, friendly and helpful as the first. It was like they were in a nice contest. In no time, after coffee and donuts, we were on the road back to the Bay with a new tire, freshly washed car and smiles on our faces saying to each other, "Now, that was outstanding customer service!" Great job you guys!

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.

As always with Long Beach BMW service, the experience is first rate!!! My Service Representative, Mr. Brian Woolverton, is tops in Customer Service, communication, and follow-up. I have been coming to Brian for a number of years, including driving the 60 miles each way bypassing other BMW dealers, to get the customer care I receive each time. Brian's coordination with the Service Technicians makes the repair process flawless and a great day to have my BMW maintained in tip-top condition.

After looking at several electric vehicles I chose the i3. So far I am thrilled with my choice. Fun to drive. especially in the city. Extremely quick and the regenerative braking is a terrific experience. I would highly recommend this car whether you are in the market for an electric vehicle or not!

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?!

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.

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

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!!!

I called the dealer and asked for the sales department and was transfered to James Piper the Internet Sales Manager. I was looking for a BMW 335i Coupe advertised on BMW's CPO website. I wanted to know if photos were available of the car since there were none available, and what features the car had. James was very polite, he gave me all of the details right away, sent me the original window sticker via email while on the phone, and sent me photos from his cell phone camera within 5 minutes of the conclusion of our phone call. I've never had such quick, and thorough service from a dealership. If I decide to go with a CPO BMW 335i coupe, I'll definitely be buying this one from James Piper. Thanks James!

I'm a driver--all of my previous cars have had manual transmissions; I log 30,000 miles a year, and so I'm fairly demanding when it comes to vehicles. The i3 broke the mold for me--electric with an onboard generator (which I rarely use), it plugs in at home every night and gets me everywhere I need to go faster than almost any sports car, quietly, and with all sorts of features. Comfortable, safe, reliable, and--after the tax credit and BMW incentives--very, very affordable. Highly recommended!

The service was great. It’s always great. That why I continue to go back. Keep up the good work!

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.

Love Sarah .. very professional and very sweet . The overall experience at this Lexus dealer is always been wonderful . I think that has everything to do with the management . That being said , they are doing a great job . Thank you , Jeannie Jones

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.

Came without appt told her my dilema that i only have an hr, car was done in 45 minutes Superb job, Every dealership should have at least 10 Linas Excellent, i will now bring my car here for service.......

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.

Huge selection of cars with great prices. Friendly staff.

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.

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!
