I have had my 2015 for almost 4 years now. Nearly bought a Taycan Turbo about a year ago and almost put money down on a Model S Plaid recently. I told my wife I was thinking about an NSX but after i had her sit in one she vetoed it immediately. Her exact words were - Don’t you dare get rid of the i8 for this! I always have my eye out for the next car, but I keep coming back to the i8. As others have said, it ticks too many boxes. It stills turns heads (including mine), it’s very comfortable and easy to drive, it’s a genteel cruiser in e mode and plenty quick in Sport mode. Mine has 13,000 miles on it and I swear it feels quicker now than when I first got it. I do most of my local driving in e mode and find the range sufficient for all of our shopping. I don’t think I have lost any e range at all in a nearly 7 year old car. My overall mpg right now is 50+. The combination of performance and economy is something I really enjoy. I am still very happy with the car.
