It's unfortunate for the i8 as such a beautiful design went to waste. We are talking Porsche GT3 and Audi R8 prices here for a car that puts up Boxster/Cayman performance. Price it $50K less and we are talking. Should have either went full electric or none at all.
Your pricing is not correct. While both my i8 and 991 GT3 have the same MSRP, the GT3 costs twice as much in reality. I got the i8 at a huge discount to MSRP with a massively subsidized money factor and residual. I'm leasing it for what you guys are paying for high spec M4's.
