This is unfortunately so true. I am waiting for the model 3 even though it might mean losing the sizeable German government subsidy, because the i3 is such an eyesore. BMW, if you're listening, stop being afraid of cannibalizing your petrol car sales and make a decent looking EV in the i3 price segment, because this just made you lose a sale to Tesla, and I'm far from alone here. Unless the reason is that the i3 is just a compliance car and you lose money making one, in which case, get your act together because it's 2017 and you risk doing a RIM vs Apple.
