Car financing: the BMW i5
We rent cars and sell one only now and then. There is no BMW i5 for sale by us right now. CarmaCars does not finance cars. Renting is not a loan, so there is no credit check to rent. Here is the BMW i5 for buyers: fuel use, size, recalls and a test drive that lasts a week.
What to check on the i5
Ask the seller for the service records of this exact car. In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered. A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package. Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay.
Reading the spec sheet
The EPA does not rate this model year for fuel use; heavier trucks and vans are often not rated.
Space, size and seats
Being a compact car, it is easy to park and comfortable on longer drives.
Who it is for
It suits visitors who want a familiar car for a week in town. It suits a family trip where everyone and everything fits in one car.
A longer test drive
Try the i5 on your commute, then decide. A test week in the i5 tells you more than any review. Renting first costs a fraction of the price of buying the wrong car.
What it costs to run
Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary. A pre-purchase inspection is a small cost next to the price of the car. Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models.
Which one to look for
Write down the VIN of any car you consider; it unlocks the recall and service history. Set a budget that includes tax, licensing, insurance and the first set of tires. If you are unsure between two options, rent one of them for a week first.
Talk to a person
Rent it for a week, then decide: send a request with your dates.
Rent it for a week before you buy
A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel. Rent a BMW i5 from us first.
Ask us about the BMW i5
Tell us your budget and when you want to buy; we look for a BMW i5 for you and reply within one business day.
Buying the BMW i5
Does CarmaCars sell the BMW i5?
Not right now. CarmaCars rents cars; it sells one only now and then. Tell us what you want and we look for one, or rent one for a week first.
Can I rent a BMW i5 before I buy one?
Yes. Request it for a week (or longer, up to 365 days) and drive it as your own; nothing is charged until we confirm and you approve.
Where do the figures come from?
Fuel use and fuel cost from the US EPA (fueleconomy.gov), dimensions and weight from NHTSA vPIC Canadian specifications, recalls and complaints from NHTSA. We leave out any figure no free source publishes.
