I would NOT consider the i3 with a REx as a full ICE replacement...the tank is just too small, and depending on where you live, the compromises may be too great. In a multi-car stable, it's great, and I just put a deposit on one today, but it's a fully loaded Giga trim. Should have it next week.

Ok, so even if you stick with the Giga without REx, same options otherwise, I'm still over $50k. So my point remains the same, it's well into 328/335 territory. That's a lot for a car that basically requires a second (or 3rd) car. And while the REx shouldn't be expected to make this an ICE replacement, I don't think anyone thinks it does. It's a back-up plan and a way to stretch it just a bit further, nothing more.
