    z1 to I8= solid upgrade, the rest I dont speak.
    As I stated before, communicate well and often, especially when the news is not going to be pleasant.

    Checked an I8 out in an Alexandria (VA) parking lot. Very nice but a bit futuristic for me.

    They are charging 200k+ for them here in S.Florida...
    Let me get this straight... You are swapping out parts designed by hundreds of engineers that get paid thousands of dollars for something you bought at Pep Boys because your buddy who doesn't have a job told you it was 'better'?!?

    We are a smaller dealer, so small allocation. It was sold before it got here. I think it sold for $170K-ish. Sounds like a good deal compared to south Florida.

    It is really a good car and the future of hybrid sports car, its looks are great with great features.

    Lovely car, its looks just gets better and better every time I see it. There are actually many I8 here in my country, one of the first I8 which was sold here in Norway received much media coverage when the owner put record in speeding ticket. He had 149 mph (240 km/t) on a highway here in southern Norway....
