This one's a little different though. Haha. 3cyl turbo in the back and battery up front. About the same interior room as a 997 or 991. But virtually no trunk space. Replaced my M3 as my daily. Slow but some cool tech and obviously looks futuristic (for now).

Nice car. How is it as a DD? I just picked up a 2016 M3 ZCP as a daily, to replace a Cayenne Turbo.

The problem with the M3 is that my wife loves it, and wants to take it instead of the X5M that she is driving now.

Does it get too much attention to be a nice commuter?

Haha you can't go wrong with driving either the M3 or X5M. Both are awesome.

I'm not sure about the i8. I picked it up a couple weeks ago and then left the country a few hours later. Only drive after the test drive was on the way home. And yeah I was paced and vid'ed a bit it was strange. I didn't think it would get much attention but I guess I'll find out when I return home.
