I've got a SLS AMG for the loud, rolling artillery barrage V8 supercar hooliganism. I'm buying the i8 because I want something different...plus it will be funny to have a 18-20mpg 6.2-liter V8 parked next to a crazy-mpg 1.5-liter 3-cylinder.

3 cylinders reminds me of an anemic Chevy rental car I had to drive to the airport.

So far…I'm given' the i8 the "stink eye
As far as sound goes, everything I've heard has been positive. Most saying it sounds like a 911 both inside and out.
