i really feel like the market segment is a bit awkward and lukewarm.
i've only seen one at the track so far, and it was mediocre there as well. we were about the same in acceleration, but the i8 was seriously lacking in the corners due to the skinny tires. it was obvious the car wasn't cornering well and understeering like crazy.

i take it you dont have enough money to actually buy one? I'm delighted with mine, its a seriously special car that takes a little time to appreciate
