the i8 has the Model S beat in the looks department. But that's where it ends. The Model S is better, more practical, and a better value in every other category. I would not buy an i8, and I'm finding it difficult to figure out who would. I've also owned several 911s. Maybe the buyer who buys the 911 for the status symbol will buy the i8 and fee
Nah the i8 has too much going on. The Model S has a clean simple design thats striking and stands out from every other car. It looks like its flowing in the wind when its not moving, I cant name another car that has that look plus its large so it has a great presence. And the Model S has by far the coolest LED daytime running lights.
The i8 looks sick but the Model S has it beat with simplicity, and that long sleek, curved roofline. The i8 looks futuristic and the Model S looks like a spaceship, i'll take the spaceship.
