Either way, have an i8 test sighting

I'm going grey but I do like the contrast of white/black going on with the Arctic White.

Damn, they aren't even out yet and they're already parking over the line.

Don't they only offer 4 colors for North America? Pretty limited. I think it's white, black, blue, and grey.

Damn.
i8 is one of the few cars that looks better in production trim. I think i'll have one in that white and leave it stock. ever.

Striking.

You're getting both!? Wow, early adopter level 100.

-You.

I assume you're going to the event, so take pictures.

Oh. No i3, just gave the date for reference. And press only at the Vegas event, might see some Jalop coverage. There's a standing offer to Patrick to review it if they don't get a press car to try on their own time.

Oh, ok good. Those aren't that good-looking.

Counterpoint: a ton of people, including myself, in car design school absolutely love it.

BUT IT ISN'T FINISHED!! It is annoying my brain.

Now this perfectly demonstrates while you should be able to apply for a front license plate exception. Here in Ontario they're mandatory and sticking a crappy frame on that would ruin it!

But it is done … and its so damn pretty.

I wish someone would photoshop a closed one, just so my brain will be happy.

It will just keep on creeping over that line little by little until it is available for sale. At which point it will be in a handi-cap spot.

I could, but I won't. sorry-not-sorry

I would too, but I would rather be doing nothing. Laziest man of them all!

This is the best photoshop I have ever seen!!! OH MY GOD IT IS SO FLAWLESS!!(this may be sarcasm)

But my mind is appeased, for a bit.

Car design school? I want to do that some day! Do you mind telling me about it, or showing me some of your work?

I think one of these in "Bright Fucking Metallic Lime Green" with the black accents would be pretty amazing looking.

screw it, here's a cheap and dirty edit to see what it would look like, and I really like it.

I stand by my opinion that the i8 is the best looking BMW they've made in the last decade, if not more.

Press only? Seems like a bit of a kick in the nuts not to invite people that already have the exclusive car on order.

You should call BMW and complain. Just be ready to beg them not to take your i8 away.

Jayhawk Jake > spanfucker retire bitch 02/06/2014 at 08:30

Agreed.

But I haven't really liked any BMWs, ever. The only one I find interesting is the M1

First and foremost you have to commit, only 2/3rd's end up making it through and its expensive. Like real expensive. But I love it, I pull my fair share of all nighters, and the last thing I am about them is upset. I love that I'm sketching or photoshopping.

But uh this is my last project. Small 3 wheeled city car designed for a specific city, in my case LA.

bigger versions here , here and here if that helps view them.
