Maybe by the time the i8 is released these efforts will have paid off and we can see better price points for these new technologies in mass production. Just an opposite way of looking at things |

Actually you are not that far off in terms of what will be possible with the BMWi Personalisation programme for the i8 , minus the CS Concept Wheels of course. The i8 Spyder is seen as the more intimate version of the i8 but has always been part of the i8 Strategy to build on this unique progression of a Sports car. Another is an Extended wheel base of the Coupe allowing more rear passenger space similar to the original Vision EfficientDynamics Concept car with one large door for easy entry/exit. That car is being evaluated now.
