It's an extremely accomplished vehicle... as long as you're an extrovert.
Rarely am I as excited about driving a car as I am in the lead up to getting behind the wheel of the BMW i8. Since BMW showed it back in 2009 at the Frankfurt motor show it’s intrigued me, beguiled too with those futuristic looks. Here now, today, blinking in the bright sun of LA after an 11 hour flight to LA, I’m catapulted into BMW’s I future and ferried to Santa Monica in the i8’s city car i3 relation, the bright, light and silent cabin in stark contrast to the white noise and darkness that’s been my reality over the Atlantic.
