Did you ever figure this out? Having the same problem.

Well, as I allude in my review up top, neither the BMW nor the Tesla is the equal of a true sports car when it comes to handling and feel. My other, other car is a 987 Boxster S, and the steering feel on that car is intense compared to the BMW and Tesla; it also handles significantly better, in...

Confession—I first posted this in a different forum and forgot about this forum’s autocorrect for the S word. Weird that “g**damn” gets through, though...

Thanks, that looks useful!

Ha ha I did. I have two of them. They sometimes don't work, either.

You might be able to do this. My wife cannot, because her wallet isn't small enough to do what you're suggesting. I suppose she could buy a different wallet? But then she'd have to alter some other part of her lifestyle to accommodate the car. Her point is that she literally never has...

I've put a few miles now on my new-to-me 2016 F80 BMW M3, including a 400 mile trip, and have had my Model 3 for nearly a year--so I thought I'd write down some thoughts. The Cars: 2016 BMW M3 6M, M Adaptive suspension, 425 hp 2018 Tesla Model 3 Performance dual motor, 475ish hp (incl. 5...

Thanks, but the tire is sold.

Thanks for the interest—sorry, they are sold!

And sold. Thanks!

Out of curiosity, why are so may people capitalizing "fob"?
