This BMW i8 got away, but there are more like it here.

This 2015 BMW i8 was purchased new by the owner in California and is powered by a turbocharged 1.5-liter inline-three, which is paired with a six-speed automatic transaxle and works in conjunction with an electric motor featuring an integrated two-speed automatic transmission. The car is finished in Protonic Blue over Carum Spice Gray leather upholstery and equipment includes the optional Pure Impulse World package, which added 20″ light alloy wheels, LED headlights with cornering, Park Distance Control, and Harmon Kardon premium audio. Additional equipment includes Dynamic Stability Control (DSC), iDrive infotainment with navigation, and heated front seats. Work performed in April 2021 consisted of replacing the windshield, micro filters, and spark plugs, along with a brake fluid exchange. This i8 has 48k miles and is offered by the seller on behalf of the owner with manufacturer’s literature, service records, a window sticker, a clean Carfax report, and clean California title in the owner’s name.
