for a hybrid this car is amazing. very well performance specs, beautiful looks.
what confuses me is how BMW is going to sell this against R8, 911. with that $100K price tag, how many pre-fisker karma customers are they going to get? unless you are really big on green and eco-friendly, why would you spend 100k on a E90 M3-performance car rather than a 911 performance car.
i think the i8 is more of a technological showcase to the world that BMW is capable of mass producing CFRP structures, performance hybrid systems at a reasonable price and stuff all that into fancy new architectures.
