Bit concerned about the Continental Contiprocontact tires after reading the reviews on TireRack.com Most of the reviewers seemed to get them as OEM tires, not sure if that has any bearing. Have you had any issues with these tires melloyello? How many miles do you have on them to date?

I picked up one of these chargers (EVSE) last year with the L6-20 connector. Works great with my Chevy Volt http://www.ev-institute.com/portable_products.html I got an iMiEV this week and was expecting it to work, but it doesn't seem to. The screen on the unit says charging for 5-10 seconds...

Brought the car home yesterday. Definitely noticed those narrow front wheels going 60-65mph for the 60 mile trip back from the border :) Happy that I made it with range to spare; might have helped that I drafted (at a safe distance) an 18 wheeler for a good chunk of that! Just picked up the...

Hmm tiresize.com says the closest match is 155/60R15 (Diameter of 22.3" which is -0.4% smaller than stock). I did find a (small) selection of tires available in that size. Would they work with the 5.5" rim? Edit: 1010tires.com says 5.5" rim will fit that size...

Gotcha. So is there another size front tire I could use with those rims to maintain the original tire circumference and not mess anything up?

Picking up my 2012 ES with steel wheels next week. Will these rims work with the stock tires? Planning to install winter tires on the steelies come fall http://www.kijiji.ca/v-tires-rims/st-catharines/mini-cooper-wheels-silver-factory-oem-rims-15-x-5-1-2-4-x-10/1159681100

Wasn't sure the best way to find this out but figured asking here would be a good start. Does anyone know if the warranty (8 year battery is my biggest concern) is transferable if the vehicle is relocated from the US to Canada? I found one web page that stated Mitsubishi's warranties were not...

Good points. Now that I know how to use the VIN lookup I will look for one with Premium package and DC quick charger. I'm not having much luck with dealerships responding to my inquires via Autotrader.com. I think they are stuck in the 20th century and I'll have to pick up the phone.

THANKS! It appears all three of the iMiEVs I'm considering have the 'Battery Warming System' and DC Quick Charge. Yay! Edit: I stand corrected, the SE while it has Cold Zone Package does not have the DC Quick Charge. Not sure I care though, would rarely have an opportunity to use L3 charging...

I somehow doubt that a dealer would be all that willing to assist me purchasing a car other than from them?

I should probably add that I am hoping to outfit the car with a diesel cabin heater (Webasto style) so is the battery warmer even something I should be worried about? I live in Southern Ontario, Canada. We do get the odd day below -20C (-4F) in the winter. I'm planning to buy in the US and...

I'm considering buying a used US model iMiEV 2012 or 2013. Is there an easy way to tell whether it is equipped with the Cold Weather Package (battery warmer) without visiting each potential dealer in person? Is there something I can ask the dealers that they will actually know the answer to or...
