the i8, like many mentioned above, was a total disaster. Not crazy hybrid tech compared to other maker's benchmark super cars, nor fast, nor super car like design, nor sound awesome, nor special/unique. It's a weird shaped hybrid with a 3 cylinder engine, that's it.
It's like a cool carbon fiber layered refrigerator.
No wonder even with 20~30K discount they are having hard time leaving the dealer lot.
I miss Albert Biermann era when he was involved with the M division...now he's at Hyundai creating N division of hot hatchbacks and plans to bring Hyundai back to Rally racing.
Meanwhile, BMW is busy making 50 different styles of LED tail lights and fuel efficient electric , silent M cars.
