Flirting with a BMW i8

First time I got a good look at the i8. Pretty beautiful car but not in my oppinion the best bang for its buck.

I like the rear, but the more I look at it the more I agree.

They are a kick in the ass to drive. First street car I ever drove that has a higher numeric torque than horsepower rating.

It's definitely an eyes in the back of the sockets feeling when you punch it.

There is practically nothing owner serviceable.

Getting out of it is fun as the seat is lower than the sill. Then you realize you can program one of the memory seat settings for "ejector" mode and all is well.

I'm not sure I'd flirt with something that looks like that, maybe at closing time.

Saw one up close in Las Vegas 2 weeks ago.

Has some cool aero parts on it.

Seems like it would be fast as hell though.

Looks ok I guess. Never driven one, but sounds fun. No matter how much you try too cover up it being a hybrid with cool looks, you will still look like a stupid looking hybrid!
