I think it looks ugly-handsome. The looks have actually grown on me. I've been checking out the off-lease used ones. In my area, they've been selling for $15k-$20k USD (years: 2014-2015). https://phoenix.craigslist.org/search/sss?sort=date&query=bmw%20i3&srchType=T https://phoenix.craigslist.org/search/sss?sort=date&query=bm... https://www.carvana.com/search?SortBy=LowestPrice&models=fr&page=1 https://www.carvana.com/search?SortBy=LowestPrice&models=fr&...

You can get i3s surprisingly cheap. Problem is they're older and have pretty poor range. But if that doesn't matter to you, way cheaper than many new low-end cars.

What puts me off are the narrow wheels. I know they are necessary but they give the car an almost comical look.

Apparently they fixed the design a bit, previously (at least here in Austria) you couldn't order one without the fugly blue lining in addition to the 2 main colors.
