Ok so the first batch of the i3's where as fast as an i3s 0-60

But we got de-tuned during a dealer visit because of motor mount failure as the motor mount design couldn't take the torque and they made my car slower with the update. And replaced the parts.


When I left the dealer the initial bite from smashing the accelerator was gone and it was a more subdued and slower acceleration. I think it also slowed the 0-60 time as well as bmw started to report slower 0-60 times after the initial run.

So now people buying the i3s are really just enjoying what the first batch of i3's had in the beginning.

Pissed me off.
