I have to admit this thing drives so smooth like a hot knife through butter. Suspension is a great compromise between handling and comfort. Just needs a little more power and more color choices

Agreed on all your points.

Just have to drive in sport mode more often. I really like the 570 spyder. If I had a 570 would I be looking for something else . Is there a point where you get a car and keep it for more then 3 to 5 years. Would the 570 be that car. Or is like woman, you always what the newest hottest model. Cheaper to change cars then wives

It's a good thought that I, myself have regularly. Cars are tough because as soon as I think I'm content a new one comes out and I lust after it. The 720S was a life changing experience. I'm heading out to Philly next weekend seriously considering going to Mclaren and putting a deposit down. Likely I'll chicken out and just see what they do on the used market. The new Bentley CGT is stunning and now I desperately want another Bentley. This will continue.

The 458 is a great car, I may keep it forever. It's got the look, sound and performance. It was never faster the Mclarens so it's not about the numbers. When I get out of the 458 I always think that it's basically maxed out for the road. You can use the most of the performance but you don't neeed anymore.

Well then I drove the 720S and damn. Although to be fair the 720S is too fast for the road I was short shifting like a wuss.

I could write much more about this but I digress...time to go drive the i8 and work on being content.

Also in regards to your sport mode point, try only driving in sport or occasionally e mode. I don't ever bother with comfort. The i8's ride is supple enough in sport and it makes it come to life. I still average about 30 mpg.
