Why did BMW make this?

It also has shit reliability, crazy repair costs, and is super over engineered to the point where it's not really repairable by the average person. Huge nightmare to own, especially out of warranty.
It does look futuristic as hell though.

Best looking BMW currently for sale. Other than that, literally no reason to buy it, especially at it's price point

for like $60k I would want one. Esp with new regular front tires.

Agreed, this is quite a popular car in my area, I usually see 3-4 a day. I think the only reason this sells is because it looks so great, if Tesla made a two door sports car that looked this good BMWi would be out of business.

When I lived in Boston I saw them way more than ///M cars and about as much as Teslas.

I'd take the i8 over a Tesla anyday though.

It looks like its shitting out a Porsche in the back It is Hideous, and a waste.

Trying to Weasley in on that tesla government money, same reason they're doing all this bullshit driverless car stuff.

EU regs and European city congestion fees.

Since the car can drive in EV mode. It can avoid fees and taxes.

Giving rich euro trash drivers an image car.
