Haven't heard of them or worked with them. Could be interesting!

There's a few of them that have been sitting for a while so bmw is now subsidizing to get them moved.
Poor guy indeed, beautiful cars but not very practical, my local BMW dealership have 4 sitting in their lots for awhile now. Congrats on your new guy, they do look special.

We work hand-in-hand with Velos on a daily basis. They are the go-to guys down here in South Florida for tunes. We've already helped a couple of the local guys here with their i8's and they are experiencing a noticeable difference in the performance.

We run a much beefier 245/30/22 // 285/25/22 for all our i8's.

Did you get rid of anything or just add to the collection?
Thx - never saw the blue wheels until David just posted the pic below with electric blue HREs - interesting for sure!

Yeah got rid of my gas guzzling e92 M3. Out with the old, in with the new

Lease. Great residual and money factor on these since well, no ones buying any longer.

I think Irvine was tossing 30-35k off msrp on their fleet.
Yeah the '15s were going for 30k or more but the residuals were very low in the 50's. Lease payments are actually lower now on the '16s with higher residuals and say 20k off msrp.

haha thx brother....that's why I got the i8...still young enough no troubles getting in and out. gotta do it while I still can.

Even though the interior space is similar, its so very different than a 991 TTS. Performance is not even in the same universe. Still have both 911's...it was my M3 that got the boot

agree looks cool now but with automobiles, there is always something better/cooler looking on the horizon. wonder how much longer it will look futuristic.

Thx for the info David. Is Velos the shop that the guys from AA started? I think I remember Omar is the tuner but I can't recall.
