Um, its not the kind of car I would cross-shop for an AMG-GT or and Audi R8.
The i8 is a unique (and very impractical) vehicle. It doesn't really cross-shop with ANYTHING else so comparisons are pretty pointless. You either want one or you don't...
That being said ("impractical"), I just finished the ED of my i8 Roadster a week ago! I put about 400 miles on the Alpenstrasse (Munich -> Eastern Half) and then another 600 or so back and forth to the Ring. Overall I'm very impressed. Its a very comfortable car and fun to drive. Very nice with the top down *OR* up. Easily capable of hitting the 255 KPH (157 mph) speed limiter on the A-Bahn! ;-)
