i8 Leaked? BMW i8 Spyder

The i8 successor that almost made it

They already have too many cars in their museums and exhibitions that "almost made it", it's time for them to "made it" before our lives pass us by.

I wonder if the book contains the still-born Production model of the CS Concept Car before the Financial Crisis killed it.

Very possible, it seems that the book is full of dead cars

Impressive coverage by BMW Blog of this amazing book. Thanks for the effort!

About the car itselft… It looks like a cheap attempt on BMW’s part. The M concept looked spectacular. The black renders here not that much.

Not sure what is the problem internally but it looks like BMW simply has no interest in building a supercar like Audi or MB. If this was the closest the company came to an M1 successor, then what a shame.

Glad it was useful. It was quite the process. Reading the book, getting the main ideas out but not sharing the entire story, we want Steve to still tell the full story through the book etc. Definitely 2 great books, waiting for the third one.

The book has some amazing story. There is one more coming out which is great! Just need to wait to go live with TopGear at the same time.
