That sounds great. You covered a lot of places. I may need to visit the Nature reserve. First time I hear about it.

Finally installed my BMWP SSK. Haven't driven it yet though. Can't wait to take it out for a spin.

Why is buying a new car so difficult? I just want everything for nothing, why is that so hard to accommodate? I might have to go with my second color choice on the i3, white. I contacted the dealer with twin Grey i3's loaded up like I want, and it just wasn't a pleasant experience from the start, someone that sounded very young and not very knowledgeable answered the sales option, took my info and said someone would get back to me in an hour. 3 hours later an older gentleman called and told me there was no way they could ship me a car that I had to go to Atlanta to take possession of the car. He said I could fly in, take possession, load it on a transport and fly out if I wanted, but that the transaction had to be done in person. 30 minutes later a lady calls and asks financing questions. 30 minutes later the older gentleman calls back MAD, apparently the lady that I thought was perhaps a finance lady (she only asked finance questions) was another salesperson and they got into it about who was working with me. Why was that even my problem? He was seriously upset, asking what time he called me vs she called me, I was like, really? So he finally gives me my numbers, he tries to gouge me on the MF, doesn't give me all of the trunk money on the car and asks for a deposit. In the meantime I'm talking to a guy from the ATL i3 FB group about it all and he starts explaining to me how I should, if possible, take this opportunity to move some funds from traditional IRA to roth IRA to bring up my tax liability, do the owners choice instead of lease and take advantage of the $7500 federal credit as opposed to just $4875. Great! So I shoot this older gentleman an email asking him to re-run the numbers on OC, he calls me and says OC isn't available in Tennessee, then e-mails me saying it is only available in 3 states. He is WRONG, BMW's website shows all states except about 5, not including TN. At this point I made contact with a really good dealer in Atlanta that has one of these cars like I want, but in White, not Gray. They are slammed, so he said he would call me back. I thought about not even responding to the first dealer, but I was kinda pissed so I replied to his email with a link to BMW's website showing him that he is wrong. He replies, apologizes, and says he is off tomorrow and will re-run the numbers for me on Wednesday. Meanwhile the other dealer calls me, wow, this guy knows what he is doing and is AMAZING. He says they have nearly 100 i3's in stock and thinks perhaps he has one in Gray that either isn't listed online or might be put in with the wrong interior color. He is going to check tomorrow, then check the network of his dealers to see if they have one and at last resort see about dealer trading from the first dealer I delt with today. As for shipping the car, he said he does it all the time, absolutely no problem and he will get me a quote so I can decide if I want to ship it or take possession in Atlanta. Lastly, I responded to my local dealer who I left hanging for nearly a week letting him know that ATL was beating them by $4500 (on a grey car they don't have, 1st dealer) and $5875 (on the white one, second dealer). His last email said they could dealer trade for the Gray car and they would gladly sell it to me for full MSRP, plus shipping, before the tax incentive. How generous of them, lol.
My brain hurts, bed time.
Wow. Screw that other dude. Nice work.

Not, not all M3 seats are heated, period. Some are, some aren't. I don't think there's any way to tell unless you rip 'em apart.
Leather does not necessarily mean heated.
They fit the sedan, but you'll have that awkward side forward tilt handle. If you can live with that, then it's a worthy upgrade for sure.
In the sedan, it is awesome!
I have the M3 seats in my sedan and find the ability to flip the seat forward makes reaching behind the seat VERY easy.
If you have kids, the ability to move the seat forward with the handles comes in handy. Given the choice between M3 seats WITH (all of them) or WITHOUT (if they existed), I would always choose the seats with the handles for my sedan.
