Congratulations on your new car. You will love it!

I don’t know too much about the theft rate of the i8 but I would suspect it’s very low. Not much demand for used i8 parts.

A camera will probably just make you more paranoid when you see the people poking around your car. Hopefully they won’t do any damage or decide to steal your camera.

The reviews on this site and others don’t have much good to say about the BMW Eye camera. Appears that there are better choices available.

I have used steering wheel locks before and feel that they are a good visible theft deterrent. And a thief might just pass for something easier. But again... not sure about the used parts value.

Probably good insurance and being careful where you leave the car are your best bets in my opinion.
