Wow! If anyone has committed at $100k over MSRP they should be COMMITTED! LOL. That is nuts.

For $235k you can go snag a moderate mileage very well equipped Ferrari 458 Italia which not only outperforms the i8 but looks much better IMHO. I thought the Tesla loaded up to the max around 125k was about 40k heavy for what they offered but $235k for an i8 would make the Tesla look like a steal.

Personally I would not pay MSRP for the i8. That said, everyone has the right to overpay for anything and to each their own. That is great for the dealer if they can pull it off. Another 400k in pure profit over the 4 allocated cars this year. That is pretty awesome for them!
