Damn, those insurance premiums are killer. Maybe it's a good thing we always buy lower priced cars. Can't imagine paying that much.

I was actually considering the value of an i3 until I saw this. <$200 per month on lease sounds fantastic, but I'm a male in my mid-20's and I only pay $30 per month for my car insurance due to driving an older vehicle. That, and I put 35-45,000 miles on my cars each year.

Try another insurance provider for an estimate. I'm 35 and was quoted 80/month for one

i'm a little younger than that, checked everything and progressive was the lowest but still not cheap

we'll see, the money isn't an issue but i have a mental block on wasting money on things i don't need or don't think i will really enjoy.

We leased an i3 in Mountain View a couple weeks ago due to the extremely favorable rates...they were moving a ton of these things.

Not regretting it one bit as it's a really well thought out car. The interior feels enormous even though the car is small. The tight turning radius is heavenly in our tiny ass apartment garage. Fuel savings alone for use wipe out the lease payments.
