True. I do have an OG i3, kept it because my wife loves it. The looks were very polarizing at the time, but now it looks sort of normal. Or maybe I just got used to looking at it 🙂
Yes, never an issue with the AC adapter, but a lot of trial and error with the CCS one, probably because of its bulky nature. It kinda bothers me so much that I mostly seek Super Chargers just to avoid dealing with that (I know... first world problems 🙂)
I know... I'm with you there. The iX (being discontinued now) was a no go for me because I couldn't get past the looks. The new iX3 and iX5 look much better, but still hard to swallow.
Yes, makes sense when sending commands to the car. I was thinking more about cases when I open the app because I want to look up some info, ie find the VIN, wallet, etc
