This car is amazing. It is fast, comfortable and quiet. The vehicle is great on gas mileage, it has a head’s up display on the windshield, push button retractable side view mirrors, BMW navigation, blue interior lights along the trim of the car, butterfly doors and it’s a hybrid. The rear seats aren’t so great for anyone who would have to sit in the back of the car however I’m glad they exist for those in the front seat. Typically coupes like these don’t have rear seats and it doesn’t allow the driver or front passenger the opportunity to recline, or move the seats back. This adds a great deal to the comfort of the ride. BMW did a great job of making a futuristic, hybrid, super car. This car turns heads. People point, take photographs, ask questions about it at the gas station and when you park. Every time those doors go up it’s like a mini car show. I am so glad I took the plunge and got my hands on this vehicle while I could. The fact that the are no longer in production adds to the allure because they are really a rarity and a treat for those who experience the vehicle as it drives by. Oct 15, 2022

Amazing vehicle that will be a sought after classic with its limited production, ahead of its time design, and hybrid functionality that will be sustainable for years. The used vehicles on the market have bottomed out, and will slowly begin to appreciate in value, essentially the rare/htf Protonic Frozen editions and roadsters.May 12, 2021
