BMW i8 in the wild

Saw the disguised but not disguise-able BMW i8 on Sunday. Sounded nice, I had no idea it was a 3 cylinder. Small, this is not a bloated BMW or recent times.

Interesting...

The pic doesn't appear to be easily embeddable; here's a link to the shutterfly page...

Okay, I got annoyed and dissected the page...

thanks ransom Flickr was no better for me today

I approve.....this is supposed to have frickin laser beams for headlights, right?

I was hoping i8 meant inline 8. too bad.

what... is it? i'm confused.

There's some very cool stuff going on with the rear quarters.

If you're trying to hide a car with camouflage, don't use a pattern that shouts HEY EVERYBODY LOOK AT THIS CRAZY CAR LOOK AT ME LOOK AT MEEEEEEEE

I think the idea is to disguise the lines as much as possible to keep anyone from really knowing what the final styling will look like.

They're claiming 95mpg and 0-60 under 5 seconds........

I thought the BMW i cars were all electric.

The i8 is a plug in hybrid and the i3 is all electric.

Lose the see through doors and in theory I think this is the same car as in Mission Impossible 4.
