My apologies that I made an inappropriate comment that may offend current i8 owners. No hard feelings and congrats on your purchase. The i8 is a sweet car no doubt. I plan to get one myself in a couple years (Waiting to see how the NSX 2.0 is), but I just don't see the point paying extra on a semi-mass production car.

I guess I'm more practical when it comes to want and need. If a car is limited to 300 cars, and if I can afford it, I would pay extra as well. But never a car that depreciate, has a long life cycle and eventually an update/replacement.

Yes, pay extra and be happy but that feeling will eventually end and comes with a thinner wallet. 100k less is 100k less no matter how fat one wallet is right?
