Autocar BMW i8 prototype first drive review here: http://www.autocar.co.uk/car-review/...t-drive-review

"Driven here for the first time in prototype form, the low slung coup is planned to go on sale in the UK next April at a price that will, BMW officials hint, pitch it into direct competition with the conspicuously more conventional Porsche 911 Carrera 4S, which retails here for 87,959 (approx $136,000)." "Porsche 911 Carrera 4S versus BMW i8 coup? Old world versus new world. Expect it to be one of next years most anticipated comparison tests."
I saw that. I was just saying, personally, I think that price is a little too steep.
