Bmw should go look what mclaren did with the paint of the 720s. Coloured carbon morphing into paint.

As much as i like the i8, bmw would be better off keeping these idiotic styling attempts under covers.

I like the hue of blue they used on the front. Don't like the pixel pattern at all. It's a bit like a flashback to the '80s of last century on a car that's supposed to look forward to the '20s of this century.

It's different.

Not a fan but interesting to see the blue accents on a blue car

The i8 does not need 'tricks' like this, IMO. The style is outstanding and does not need any gimicky attention grabbers. Not a fan of the bright blue contrast in interior

I love love love the the exterior. Would love to see some rolling shots of it.
