  • 2019 BMW i8 Price Quote - www.autobytel.com/bmw/i8/pric...
    The BMW i8 is what a car of the future should look like. Even though the BMW i8 has been around for a few years now, the styling is still as forward thinking as any car on the road today. The 2019 BMW i8 is priced between $147,500 for the Coupe seen here and $163,300 for the Roadster convertible model. Upfront there are the signature BMW kidney grills and the classic BMW Roundel. But the rest of the car is designed to move air over the car to either make it more aerodynamically efficient or to add downforce. The roofline is low and sleek. The supercar style swan-wing doors open up and not out.
    The BMW i8 is heavily comprised of carbon fiber and aluminum which means it is light and strong. Inside the cabin the styling is forward and futuristic just like the exterior. The front seats are comfortable, and the rest of the interior is very familiar for those who drive a modern BMW.
    Driving is a unique experience because the i8 is a plug-in hybrid. Meaning there is an on-board engine to charge the batteries. Power when the electric motors and turbocharged 3-cylinder engine are combined is 369 horsepower. A small engine paired with hybrid electric power can make for a fun machine.

    $150 grand for a new one, $60K for one 4 years old. (ouch) When it hits $45K, this will be a great buy (as long as the battery doesn't fail). If they had put the V8 from the M3 with the hybrid system from the i8, it would have been a supercar and not a Toyota Prius killer.

    You need to reverse your entry/exit technique. Get in butt first then swing your legs in. Get out left leg first, then push off with your right leg while it’s still in the car with your left leg on the ground. Nothing to it if you’re halfway fit. If you’re not, don’t blame the car.

      Bob Lee Idk I kinda lost respect for his mom especially. Almost seems like she is milking his music, and money a little too much. But that’s just my opinion.

    back seats are for insurance purposes and in some areas for tax purposes. usually if you buy a car with two seats it's more expensive for insurance and there are different ta categories which you can defer taxes. Where i live, you can reduce your taxes if you have a 4 seat car where as having a 2 seat car is seen as a luxury and won't reduce your taxes as much. correct me if i'm wrong, but this is what i've learned from professionals.

      I think when he said a few years I think he met the design since that car looks like the 2015-2018 versions of the model just upgraded

      Steve BigEve I see comprehension is not your thing. I think everyone who saw this knew he meant the design and look hasn’t changed in years.
