Just received my VIN 23xx

That is my exact spec also…I’m guessing they have some of those sitting in a lot. Guessing delivery might be sooner than the 4-8 weeks quoted. I’ve not received my VIN yet…but I just ordered late this afternoon. My existing lease doesn’t expire for 9 weeks.

What color and options?

I wonder if R1s88 is getting an inventory car? Surprised his VIN is 22xx and yours is 45xx.

Curious…are the last four digits of your VIN in the 4,000s or 5,000s? Trying to figure out how many of these things have been/will be turned out by the time we receive ours. The more the better.

I just submitted my order for Glacier White with 20” wheels. I noticed all of the extra cost available colors were 4-8 weeks, only Esker Silver was 8-12 weeks. I again content this is a profit play. Non metallic white should be cheaper than the Silver.

Bottom of the order screen….select one of the colors and you will the the estimate.

I see that Glacier White is a 4 - 8 week delivery window while Esker is 8 - 12 weeks. I suspect is a way to squeeze out a bit of profit.

I suspect you are correct. I like the Coastal Cloud interior but my use case makes the black Interior better choice for hiding dirt and grime. I need the towing package and full autonomy+ is sufficient for me. The benefits of LIDAR are likely several years out. I may someday regret the...

I just received an invite to order. I was an August/September window. I was surprised.

I might add that a manufacturer can change a parts supplier a few years into production which can cause new problems. Nothing is perfect and initial problems may not be a good predictor of future problems. My current ride is a BMW IX50; a vehicle that has generally been reported as very...

He does some g He does some good reviews…just skip to the end for his conclusions.

With the exception of a few flatbed situations, the charge port door alignment is the most cited problem with the R2. That is highly encouraging For $200 you can “upgrade” to a regular steering wheel.

😞 yep…your rims and tires weren’t designed for rock crowding. I would almost be even more worried about destroying your soft road purposed tires. If it makes you feel better I doubt the 20” wheels would have fared much better. Large rocks tear up rims….I have a lifted Jeep Wrangler with...

That’s what I would have thought but I will have the 20” tires and Kyle’s test would seem to indicate 2.2 MPK at 80 mph with the 21” tires. I suspect the 20” would be closer to 2.0 MPK in this same test. I currently lease a BMWIX50 that generally does the trip using 2.6 MPK…at about 70 mph...

I understand why the R2 has less efficiency than the MYP at high speeds, but given their nearly identical EPA range I would have expected a far closer efficiency result at lowee speeds. Not sure why the difference…something seems amiss. It will be interesting to see other tests. Hopefully...

Since the ix3 is manufactured overseas significant tariffs must be accommodated in the price. I suspect the ix3 and R2 would be closer in retail cost if tariffs were rolled back. Absolutely correct….but sometimes a lot of enjoyment can be derived from driving something more fun and unique...

My wife and I test drove an R2 yesterday with the 20” wheels. I echo much of what has been observed. I have a projected Aug/Sept order window and am looking at replacing a 2024 BMW IX50 (expiring lease) and a lifted 2020 Wrangler Rubicon with my next purchase. A few other observations; My...
