Incorrect...the Hindenburg fiasco was due to the thermite material covering the skin of the dirigible, hence why the thing burned so fast

My god that's awful. Here's to hoping the 2er isn't bulbous and retains some of the grunt that the 1er styling had.

I fail to see how this moves any goalposts or raises the bar with anything. Its 3300 pounds for starters. Sure that is much better than most of their offerings from a weight perspective but a corvette has weighed less than 3300 pounds for 20 years and 3300 is nothing to write home about.
It has a hybrid motor with mediocore performance by today's standards. 0-60 in 4.6 seconds is pretty average for any sportier car these days. They could have used thish platform for a really high performance machine but to roll this out with very average performance figures and a 3300 pound weight is really nothing special in my view. |

Still looking too much like a space ship from the rear. Doors are cool and the renders look good. But I think there is room for improvement

was wondering the same thing and actually I don't think so.
edit:looking at the video it looks like it will be a 4 seater because of the space behind the front seat when they opened the door

Not that a single soul will cross shop the i8 with any Corvette, so I'm not even sure why we're discussing this. |

This is sort of like saying that a candle only burns because of the wick. Hydrogen remains cost prohibitive to isolate and is highly flammable, evaporates from storage and really doesn't make any sense for cars.
