The US is the comletely wrong habitat for such a beast! Germany is the place!
Just had a very enjoyable race with the I 8 and an AMG C class on the German Autobahn (without endangering others certainly!).
And I could tell, by looking in my rear mirror 
, that it can accelerate at any given speed immensely and has a good elasticity!
But if the speed limiter is still in place it will only do a 155 mph and that is not enough for the Autobahn.
I also move over very politely if the SLS is in my back at 155 mph.
The funny thing is: if you sit in a comparable car it is always a race and a chase on the Autobahn.
A fantastic looking, different looking, emotional and very good car from BMW.

First BMW i8 in US sells for $825,000!
That's Six Times Base MSRP. But At Least Jay Leno Was There To Give The Car Away Read the story here: BMW i8 sells for $825,000 BMW i8 Pebble Beach This message has been edited by pingtsai on 2014-08-21 22:15:39 ...
It must be nice to live a life where you don't have to worry
about money growing on trees! :) Cheers, Anthony

Even living the life of money growing on trees it is still silly to pay 6x MSRP for anything! SMH!

On the road
The last time I saw this car was at airport display last month... Cannot resist and took a ballwatch shot with a BMW. And now it is hitting the road now! What a rush! ...
another landmark car of BMW
Like the Z1, the 850, 635 and back to the 507: this I8 s a stark reminder that BMW can produce cars that are instant classics. Best Moritz
